Daidalos (ダイダロス, Daidarosu) is the Silver Saint of Cepheus constellation serving Athena and the Sanctuary during the 20th century (1990). On Andromeda Island, it was he who instructed Shun and June to become Saints. Distrusting the Pope's actions, he decided not to respond to his summons, which was considered an act of treason. As a consequence, the Pope sent Pisces Aphrodite to kill him.

Appearance

Daidalos is a young man with a fair complexion and an appearance that makes him look older than he really is. He has a robust and muscular physique. His face is rough and has well-defined features, such as a large mouth, a sharp nose and a prominent chin. Under the helmet (mask), you can see that his hair is dark and is combed into spikes.

Personality

He is an excellent teacher with the experience and discernment to realize that the power Shun came to manifest was far from normal.

Shun notes that his teacher is a kind person, and the fact that he was never seen upset with his student, despite being strict in training, supports this claim. Likewise, Daidalos showed great respect towards his student, as even when he doubted his ability to pass the test of sacrifice, he accepted Shun's right to attempt it without trying to dissuade him out of his concerns. Furthermore, he exhibited remarkable intelligence in understanding for himself, much like Dohko and Marin , that something was not right with the Pope , leading him to choose to remain neutral, much like Mū , Dohko, and Marin.

He is presented as a rather strict mentor to Shun in his training, but has also shown to be a kind and compassionate person. After five years of training, Daidalos allows Shun to take the test of "the sacrifice", which is considered the final test to become a Bronze Saint and obtain the Andromeda Cloth, even when he doubted that Shun was ready to complete that test, the young man emerges victorious, opening the sea with his cosmos and breaking the chains that held him. After completing the last test of his training, he manages to become a Saint.

The Funeral Procession of Roses

Abilities

• Based Physical Strength: A Saint is able to destroy an object on an atomic scale, his fist was capable of splitting the sky and his kick was able to cracking the ground. As one of the 24 Silver Saints, even the weakest Silver Saint was classified as twice as strong as almost all ordinary Bronze Saints and even five times stronger based on fighting ability. But, almost all of the Silver Saints were weaker than the Gold Saints.

• Movement Speed: A Silver Saint is able to move at the speed of light, in this case, as a Silver Saint, his speed is usually between Mach 2 and Mach 5.

• Physical Durability & Endurance: a saint is actually a true soldier who trains hard and is able to fight for a long time, but in this case several Silver Saints were able to be defeated easily with one powerful attack when Cosmo was burned.

• Cosmo Manipulation: Cosmo is the Source energy of life and the Source Energy of the Universe itself where this energy can be absorbed by the saint's body while they're burning their Cosmo, the Cosmo is considered as a miniature of Big Bang that exists in every living object, or the big explosion that created the universe. Every Saint has a Cosmo within them, which they can burn to enhance their Special Techniques or Powerful blows while they are Fighting.

• Enhanced Senses : 6th Sense - Intuition (意識, Yishiki) is a feeling that represents the power of the saints of Athena, and is inherent in all people who can perceive their own cosmos and/or the cosmos of others. Utility is essentially what differentiates a warrior who has risen from the universe from an ordinary warrior, as things like sensing and using cosmo energy, moving at superhuman speeds, and predicting movements. Additionally, the sixth sense can replace the loss of the previous 5 during a fight.

Cepheus Silver Cloth

The Cepheus Cloth is the cloth of the Saint Daidalos in the manga of Saint Seiya. It is of the second class of the cloths that Athena's Saints wield, which is called as the Silver Cloths.

This Silver Cloth can withstand cold down to -200° Celsius before breaking, and can also withstand the pressure of the seabed.

The manga version of the Cepheus Cloth, while having all of the strength and endurance of a Silver Cloth, has no special traits that make it stand out as a cloth. The anime version, however, had chain weapons similar to Shun's weapon that could be used to fight with.

Techniques

Dual Chain Strike : involves using two chains to deliver simultaneous, powerful attacks. This technique combines strength and precision, allowing him to overwhelm his opponents. (Saint Seiya - Awakening. Game Only)
