Passive: Empathy: Cavan has the ability to sense the emotions of those around him. While he cannot read minds by any means, he can detect is someone is scared, angry, sad, happy, or any other kind of emotion, even if they're trying to hide it. Due to this, he can typically tell when someone is lying, seeing as their emotions betray panic and fear. Cavan is unable to turn off his empathy, very similar to the way Garnet's Future Vision(TM) works. Lastly, this enables him to detect whenever he isn't alone, as he can sense someone else's emotions. The more powerful an emotion, the farther away Cavan can sense it. Active: Supersonic Voice: Cavan's gem is located in his throat. Due to this, his voice is immensely powerful, allowing him to shout or scream with enough force to bring down walls and blast objects, or people, away. Persuasion: Cavan's voice is able to persuade weak-minded individuals into doing his bidding. Whispering is the best way to do this, as screaming interferes with his concentration. Downsides to this ability include his voice gaining a crackling tone while in use, almost like glass shattering, and that in order to persuade strong-minded individuals and gems, he must speak to them over an extended period of time. His influence only lasts for a short duration (clearly consent from the other person will be required in order for him to persuade their character). Crystal Breath: Cavan is able to create crystallized structures on surfaces that he blows on, very similar to ice breath, however there is no cold aspect to it, and it is stronger than ice.
-Backstory-
Cavan served as an enforcer and interrogator for the Diamonds when he was a member of Homeworld. He was basically the Internal Affairs of the Gem world. He was sent to fix problems. Investigate any kind of rebellion against the Diamonds and quelling it was his primary function. When the Rebellion on earth took place, he heard tales of Rose Quartz and her renegade Pearl, how the fearsome duo struck hard and fast, sabotaging any attempt to build Kindergarten's on Earth. Blue Diamond dispatched him with an Amethyst and a Pearl to investigate and quell the Rebellion. When he first arrived, the two were impossible to find. Cavan commanded a small army, and he roamd the surface of the earth searching for them. He ruthlessly interrogated the creatures deemed as "humans", forcing them to reveal anything they knew about the rogues. At long last, he learned of their location. He sent his army to strike them down, however during his time searching for them, the Rebellion had grown in numbers. After a vicious, bloody battle, the Rebellion emerged victorious. Cavan fought with his entire strength, however he was nothing compared to Rose Quartz' forces. He was imprisoned, however every once and a while he was removed from his bubble to speak with a Sapphire. They spoke often, slowly revealing to Cavan the horrors of Homeworld. Eventually, he joined the Rebellion; after years of fighting, Homeworld was defeated and was driven away from Earth. The Kindergarten's were shut down and Cavan began to live a normal life, slowly blending into the human culture until his days as an interrogator and warrior were but a distant memory.
-Other-
Cavan is entirely voice oriented. Removing his ability to speak is a key to defeating him. His persuasive abilities are limited to the consent of other roleplayers and it can take weeks or months to convince someone to do what he wants if they oppose him (like a Homeworld Gem). Cavan hates forcing people to do what they don't want to, however he is a Rebel Gem. He has the stomach for it.
Guys, I learned something today. Myamoto, the guy who made Mario/Zelda/ect...
Is a total racist. (Against Europeans)
Also hes the reason RARE sold themselves to Microsoft, and Rockstar made GTA3. At least the last one is positive.
Also don't ever work for nintendo if you think you can make good games, at least while he is alive. Otherwise he'll cancel them and steal the game for himself if you don't budge on all his 'creative meddling'. Its why Paper Mario games are so bad now.
UNrelated. Anyone ever heard of the fighting game Skullgirls?
@Archmage MC Be nice to have sources to back all of these claims. Last time I checked, Nintendo is still cranking out some pretty good games. Breath of the wild and Bayonetta 2 (since Nintendo both bought the studio AND told said studio not to tone down her adult nature just because it's a Nintendo title) to name a few recent additions.

Well I know RARE had lots of issues with Myamoto before Microsoft bought them. What with Conker getting criticized forcing them to change it, Dinosaur planet being criticized forcing them to change it, Myamoto bashing DK country since RARE redesigned his character and made them way better and did that psuedo 3d sprite thing to blow everyone out of the water, and stuff like that form other sources in the industry. (And then the cancellation of Star Fox 2 on the SNES since it was a better Starfox 64 or Argaont having their engine for Super Mario 64 stolen from them...)
Most of the problems were with people using his IPs and doing them better. Bayonetta isn't his so they got along alright. But you've seen how bad the Metroid games have gotten, how bad the Paper Mario games have gotten, how bad the Mario Party games have gotten, all from executive meddling from what I can tell since he isn't the one making those games. It makes sense when you think about it. Especially when you have a very real western example, IE George Lucas, who did the same thing.
Though time will tell if he'll have the new CEO's ear or not (I don't think he had Iwatas all that much though either), since its do or die with the Switch, so they can't afford Myamoto to have a tantrum if someone makes his IPs better than him, especially if they wanna sell them out for licensing deals to make tons of money off movies and theme parks. Speaking of which, Universal is making a Nintendo themepark inside theirs, which is pretty neat.
Also learning a lot about the US presidents. Teddy is basically the inspiration for Saxton Hale and also the reason why people think of Piranhas the way they do, which is neat. And even all of Lincon's 'bad' things weren't bad at all. Also They had to stretch to find most of them and it was mostly stuff like prostitutes and the like. Also Ronald is hopefully who Trump might emulate, which is pretty good. And man Nixion was abrasive. Lots of the other presidents were family men which was neat.
bingewatching a bunch of history stuff if anyone is interested in any of that.
AND apparently Salt does NOT increase blood pressure that much, its the stress of thinking salt increases blood pressure that actually increases your blood pressure far, far more than salt actually can. And not eating enough salt actually drastically increases your blood pressure. Makes sense knowing what I do about chemistry.
I will most certainly concede that since this journalist is european he might be missing stuff that is from US/Japan that hes done and that myamoto just might be an asshole in general in these situations and I'm a bit jaded over how bad Japanese business is in general with dealing with the western world so thats why I might call him racist (A better term would be jealous now that I think about it so lets call him that.). But either way he has done some pretty nasty and shady stuff to people.
He tends to get the stories no one else wants to talk about, so yeah. See his Drivergate scandel video. Its pretty neat. I remember that game too. I do like EU journalists. They tend to tell the truth and get stories that tend to get buried over here in the US. Ex. the BBC.
I will double check tonight on where we are at with gem positions.
I can tell you now that HomeWorld gems are basically full but yours might get choosen over another but not sure so it is a matter of you want to do the time and effect but possible not get to use the character.
I think only a few slots are left Rebellion wise and same goes for Newborns.
I have no problems with you having another one but I would rather keep a few slots open for new players. Again, please wait for Kronshi response before doing anything.
Anyone learn anything interesting the past few weeks? I'm posting a few things I've been learning, but I wanna know what you all have learned. Knowledge is fun!
Also I've got a lot of human things for Marry to get fascinated with xD.
@Archmage MC I'm not positive about it, but as far as I can tell, human eyeballs possess "immune privilege", which makes it so that the immune system in unable to tell when is happening inside the eyes (the sclera prevents it from knowing) because if it did, it would attack it and destroy our ability to see because something within the eye is seen as wrong by the immune system.

Ah, neat! that also makes sense as to why if you get an infection or parasite in that part of your eye a doctor needs to rip it out.
@Archmage MC I learned about how large amounts of stress can affect the human body negatively... It's very painful
And this is why I suck at being positive... But god damn can I talk a lot about stress and its affects on the human body
I'd recommend you emulate Sans from Undertale then. It helps with being positive. Being nihilistic, but in a positive way. I do that when I feel stressed and it works wonders. Though I did that before undertale, but Undertale gave me something to reference to for others.
@Archmage MC Darling I'm a huge nerd for undertale. I can do a classic sans, blueberry sans, science sans, Underfell sans, and Underlust Imperssion... I get really bored... I also get bored easily

Do what I do, Bingewatch stuff on youtube or an anime or a cartoon or something. Or video games. Its how I tend to curve my boredom. Then I tell you guys the interesting stuff I'd think you'd be interested in since I like you guys.
I can give you a few channels I keep up with if you want.

youtube.com/channel/UCYUQQgogVeQY8cMQa.. - Cinemasins, very funny movies every week or so. youtube.com/channel/UCXhSCMRRPyxSoyLSP.. - Facts to blow your mind. Lots of neat facts. youtube.com/channel/UCHdos0HAIEhIMqUc9.. - Dorkly, Lots of funny sprite animations. youtube.com/channel/UC7_gcs09iThXybpVg.. - PBS Spacetime, Cosmotology and particle physics. Also look at other PBS channels for more neat stuff, but not as in depth. youtube.com/channel/UCsXVk37bltHxD1rDP.. - Kurzgesagt, Another science channel that doesn't update very frequently, but always trys to give uplifting videos. youtube.com/channel/UCZYTClx2T1of7BRZ8.. - Scishow, Lots of neat science facts. also see Scishow Space for more facts. youtube.com/user/GameGrumps/videos - GameGrumps. Lets play channel. these guys are pretty meh at games and if you don't like their comedy then yeah, its ok if you don't watch them. they tend to be hit or miss but they hit more than they miss. Just pick a game and put them in the background when doing work. They don't tend to finish games though, so get ready for that. channelawesome.com - Nostalgia Critic's website. I tend to look here occasionally as sometimes they have pretty decent stuff here, since they're trying to become their own studio and trying hard to do so. I tend not to watch most of the NC's stuff though, I like it more when hes cheerful, not angry xD.
ATM I'm looking for a good horror channel, usually with creepypastas, but a lot of them tend to have stuff I'm not interested in. Especially when they could do SCP stuff for stories.
Anyone got some neat channels? I tend to find a few here and there but they tend to be super small.
@Archmage MC youtube.com/user/CreepsMcPasta- CreepsMcPasta: He is a horror, creepypasta, story narration channel, his voice is really calming and I enjoy listening to him when I am out at this park where I like to go with a friend or just alone.
@Archmage MC HOnestly I want to do a narration channel just because I love doing different voices just for the hell of it, and because I love narrating things
