Can Crusader of Endymion place Spell Counters on itself?!
Crusader of Endymion is face-up and you activate a Spell.
No. Its effect places counters on other cards, not itself.
If Crusader of Endymion's Gemini Summon is negated by Solemn Judgment, does Defender protect it from being destroyed?!
Crusader of Endymion attempts a Gemini Summon and Solemn Judgment negates the Summon.
No. If the Gemini Summon is negated, the monster is not treated as being on the field for the Summon, so Defender does not prevent its destruction.
