@The1Rolling1Boy That should work fine!

@DracoLunaris The sounds good to me!

@Archmage MC I think at this point we've decided that we would really prefer her to be a newcomer.

@Archmage MCyou used the system correctly. look at snowflake to see how it would apply to characters with more than one power. As time goes on, you might learn a new power to put points towards, or even advance your one power even further

FINISHED


Gem:

"I'm a Larimar, What type of gem are you new friend?"

Name if your gem goes by a different name:
Bubbles
"Hi! Everyone calls me Bubbles! I don't know why.... me oh well I guess

Appearance:

"I'm a Larimar, What type of gem are you, new friend?"

Powers:
Bubble Manipulation(Active): User can create, shape and manipulate bubbles.
Thought Bubble Constructs(Passive): User can use their own thought bubbles in a real, tangible situation. They could be used like balloons for transportation, generating platforms, comfort and various other uses.
Enhanced Speed(Unknown): User has the ability to ran faster then the average speed of their species and if strong enough can temporary slow time due to how fast they are movie but this would have side effects on the user, for example, distorting their appearance slightly or paralysing certain actions

Items:
An Axe, like the one in the picture. And an eyesight enhancer has well to help see smaller details in objects.
"What this silly thing? It's nothing that great"

Backstory:
Larimars are formed to be like messengers or scouts, many pretty hard to come by since they have such a picky genetic makeup so they are most of the time given to noble warlords like gems for them to send them out to planets to find and receive information on topics like vegetation, other life forms, and geography. This Larimar has only done very few scouting jobs and is under the care of a Blue Quartz who is a defective Quartz soldier.

He doesn't know much his Blue Quartz but she is very pretty and pretty mean to him a lot but does show him kindness sometimes whenever he does all of his jobs currently for that day, and when she first got home she was a new noble gem and he got the sit on her lap as she talked to him and answered questions about everything. At the time she wore a really pretty flowing icy blue dress that has a diagonal cut going from the mid thigh to the ground. He would actually try to talk to her normally about normal things like how his eyesight teacher would bug out sometimes when he is near the peridots while they are working.

Writing example:
Larimar calmly walks around the halls of the ship trying to get to the pilot's quarters to speak with them about an update that has appeared in the DNA result from a lab test on a rock fragment though he does and up slipping a few times due to the little amount of traction that he as under his feet. "PERMISSION TO SPEAK SIR!" he yells really loudly has he bursts through the door breathing heavily.

He slowly raises his head and salutes his higher ranking gems. "I have news on the umm latest samples from the Lapis Lazuli dispatch who came back from their latest terraforming exhibition pretty beat up by same of the preexisting lifeforms that you already know of and they have brought back data stating that are capabilities to form at least a minimum of kindergartens sadly with unpredictable outcomes on the gems that would be formed. Most likely if we do go down that route there will be a good number of defective gems." He then closes his eyes preparing to be yelled which he did this time for stepping out of time and barging into a conference meeting with nobles from a diamond.

Larimar sighs as he stands out in the hall after he got yelled at before slowly walking to his courtiers to get some rest and to wait for his next "mission" or whatever. At this point, he could care less about people randomly calling him Bubbles he could turn his thoughts into platforms. Has he was walking one of the thoughts actually turned into a platform and he walks into it face first. Larimar sighs and climbs over it before continuing down the halls on the ship, the floor tiles lighting up when he steps on it. "I guess the Peridots finally got the new floor tiles to work... they are kinda cool I guess," he says to myself before sighing and pushing the button to go into his room wich was about the size of a closet and filled with random plant life and a little creek flowing through it and he had a hammock hanging from the ceiling that he installed him self-using random stuff he finds while scouting planets.

Anything extra you'd like to add:
-Though it's not traditional he does like to zone out of the physical realm into a realm of mystery and has the ability to do whatever and think of whatever freely and somehow when he comes to he feels refreshed

@Spinna Now, I was initially interested in this game, and had an interesting idea for it, but seeing @Archmage MC's character has killed it for me. At the most basic level, "space-time manipulation" is an exorbitantly broad ability with the potential to become exponentially more broken the more points are put into it, but Marry already possesses horrific amounts of destructive capability with just the one sub-power: the portals.



Let's explain that simply, for those who don't like science and angry ranting. The portals themselves have 2-D edges that can cut anything and everything, whether the thing gets caught between them as they close or whether it's forced to move into a mid-air portal's edge. If the portals have different sizes compared to one another, then moving through the small portal to the large portal is like walking through a quantum blender that obliterates everything it touches, and then generates an explosion far more energetic than any nuclear fission or fusion bomb in existence to an unknown but presumably massive degree. And at best, moving through the large portal to the small portal will crush you to death and turn your particles into the beam of a wave motion cannon; at worst, you won't even get the chance to walk through it, because the small portal will have already generated a black hole that has consumed the entire planet.

So in case you can't tell, I'm not impressed with Archmage's grasp of physics (whether or not they know what the implications of their ability are, but I'm guessing "not"), or with Marry's abilities in general, or with the fact that the GM has not only allowed her, but has apparently allowed her before too. At least Earth won't be a problem for Homeworld anymore! Then again, Homeworld should already have been long-since destroyed too, under the circumstances.

@BCTheEntity I'm looking over @Archmage MC's sheet again. I figured the abilities of the portals sounded basically the same as the Portal gun from the games of the same name, so with that in mind I'd assume she *couldn't* place portals on gas or liquid, or probably uneven surfaces, so if I'm right that shouldn't be a problem. That also makes avoiding a portal cut much easier.

In regards to what you said about the portals changing size, that make makes sense in reality, but since Arch didn't put that in their sheet I'm assuming vaporization isn't a concern. The fact that this is SU and "gem magic" is a common explanation when viewers are expected to ignore certain things about the laws of physics should put your primary concern to bed.

Beyond that, I can see how having three different, reasonably powerful sub-abilities may be a *bit* overpowered this early in the game and will consider asking Arch to tone it down. I've run it by my co-GMs and I'll ask @Pyroman and @Loony if they have any issues or if I'm missing anything.

Also, I've never accepted this character before because I wasn't the GM before. The two GMs of the last RP Archmage and I were part of, both of whom are very good about catching OP abilities, accepted this character and we had no problems during the game.

@Spinna If you need the portals toned down, just let me know. I got no problem with that. For now I'll remove the size changing and moving thing. Let me know if you need a few more.

@The1Rolling1Boy The initial setting is probably just going to be a crater in a field somewhere. Whichever gem is in charge of the ship will probably do their best to make sure they land away from civilization or any type of hazardous terrain. And yes, I'll be playing one on the villains as well as Chromite who will accompany the other young gems.

@Spinna ....Dangit, I can't resist anymore...

May I join? I was thinking of making a pearl who pretends to be a Moonstone (AKA Takes a Moonstone's place and says she's that Moonstone, and has a good disguise to ensure people don't see her as a pearl) in order to go on the mission as a capable member of the team (and not a tool/thing). Would that be okay?
