"Daimon Eggs" were items used by the Death Busters in both the Sailor Moon anime as well as the Sera Myu Musicals and Sailor Moon Crystal. Their purpose was to infect a host to create a Daimon.
Versions[]
Anime Ver.[]
In the anime, the Daimon eggs were created by Professor Tomoe which were used to find a person with a pure heart. The egg would be implanted into an object, fuse with the object, and turn into a Daimon. After a Daimon is destroyed, the egg would separate from the object that it was implanted in and break, releasing a malicious looking puff of black smoke leaving behind a broken shell.
Starting from episode 112, the Daimon Eggs were modified to mimic the cormorant that feeds by diving into the water and keeps the fish deep in their throats. This type of daimon would suck out the victim's heart crystal and swallow it. Mimete is the only Death Buster to use this type. The smoke released from these destroyed Daimon Eggs would take the shape of a bird.
Crystal Ver.[]
In the Crystal version, these eggs were black. Pharaoh 90 brought them to Earth when he first contacted Professor Tomoe. Professor Tomoe manufactured and experimented on them in his lab, and the other members of the Death Busters could summon the eggs to create Daimons to assist them when fighting the Senshi. When they were put into a living creature (either intentionally or accidentally), a monstrous Daimon would hatch from the egg and emerge from within the host, completely engulfing the host. Once the Daimon is destroyed, the host is left unharmed from the attack and the Daimon egg is ejected from the host and dissolves leaving no trace of it behind. Except for Pharaoh 90, and Mistress 9 (who came from a Daimon egg planted in Hotaru), all the members of the Death Busters had a Daimon egg implanted within them.
