[OOC] We Are the Crystal Gems

@Saarebas

That is great! I am so happy for you and much congratulations!

[Saarebas]

@21308@Raijinslayer@LizLegend@Akayaofthemoon@Blizz Thanks guys =) I'm happy to have this stuff finally in motion

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Saarebas

Welcome and I am happy that things are moving forward for you

[Raijinslayer]

@AkayaofthemoonHey, can my gem be a bit more world weary, like, he woke up a year or so before the others and decided to leave soon after.

[Kronshi]

@Raijinslayer No, that kind of ruins the point of being new gems.

[Raijinslayer]

@KronshiThat's true, my bad. Anyway, I'm still thinking on the Gem I'm using, but chances are that it's going to be Marra Mamba, his weapon being a 3 part staff, and his ability being something to compliment his weapon, though I'm not quite sure what that'll be yet. Reason I wanted him to be older is so he could be on more even ground with the others in regards to experience, but then again, that does go against the point.

[Kronshi]

@Raijinslayer Ummmmmm, hate to burst your bubble but a three part staff is being used for a fusion weapon

[21308]

@Kronshi Has a quarterstaff been taken? Maybe he could use one of those. Edit: Or maybe nunchucks.

[Raijinslayer]

@Kronshihow about a kind of chain-staff that works kinda like Ivy's sword in Soul Calibur, though if that doesn't work, the quarterstaff idea will do nicely. . . Or maybe I should go with Tonfas?

[Kronshi]

@Raijinslayer The chain staff is to similar besides for the sake of fusions I'd like to keep away from more polearms that kind of goes for the quarterstaff too. And tonfas are like the wrist blades for one of the fusions minus the actual blades. Sorry for the inconvenience but we already have two polearms and three swords and its hard to put those things together multiple times.

[Raijinslayer]

Chakrams?

[Kronshi]

@Raijinslayer Chakrams would be fine. They'll be hard to fuse but at least they won't be repetitive.

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Kronshi

I agree with Chakrams and have some ideas we can do for them if you need help Kronshi. I am excited! ^-^

[Saarebas]

Hey fair warning guys but I may not be on tomorrow or Thursday do to me having a medical examination planned with the army just to see if I am fit for duty. I will try to check in when I can but I can't make too much of a promise. Wish me luck guys =)

[pyroman]

@SaarebasNo worries!

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Saarebas

Good luck and I hope all goes well ^-^

@Akayaofthemoon Here's my Gem, hope he's okay. Might need a little fine tuning here and there, especially with the emotional stuff, as I'm not sure I did that right.

Marra Mamba

Marra Mamba

Appearance:
Mars is around 6'5 in height, with a mane of wild, shaggy, coarse hair that reaches past his shoulders and holds a chaotic mixture of reds, blues, golds, and a few bits of dark grey, but it's mainly a dark, glossy shade of brown. His skin is a shade or two lighter than his hair, and covered with tiger like stripes criss-crossing his body , taking on the same chaotic mix of colors as his hair. His facial features are rather angular, his eyes holding a golden tint to them, with red, blue, and gold flecks sprinkled through them.

His clothes involve a jacket that reaches to his knees, jeans, and no shoes or shirt. His figure is muscular, but not overly so, completing the lean, predatory imagine that he carries about him perfectly.

Gem:


Gem Location:
Right arm, On the underside of his wrist

Emotional Strength:
Focus and Composure, No matter the situation Mars shows an ability to keep a cool head. This doesn't mean he doesn't show excitement and emotion, but rather he's able to keep it to manageable level that doesn't interfere with whatever he's doing. In most cases, he seems to act aloof and carefree, never seeming to break a sweat as he toys with his prey.

Emotional Weakness:
Pride and Arrogance, Mars thinks himself better than most others out there, as well as being to proud to ask for help or assistance, even if he really needs it. When one mocks him, or otherwuse tarnishes his pride, he's quick to snap at them, losing his cool a lot of the time and getting into fights

Power:
Ergokinesis

Mars can absorb energy from any heat-source and use it to do a variety of things. However, he can only hold so much, and not all forms of energy fuel him up at the same rate. His most common and best way to absorb energy is through exposure to sunlight. He could also absorb large amountsof energy from things like lava, fire, and lasers. but they'd still do damage to him. It'd be halfed due to tthe lost, but it'd still do some damage if strong enough. Also, in order to absorb energy, Mars must be completely still and focused on that task, leaving him open to attack. Sunlight is a bood reference, as a few minutes or so of absorbing it will leave him enough juice to use his less draining applications for a decent amount of time.

Mars can use the energy he's collected directly via beams, blast, and simple constructs(which are the most costly application), enhance specific physical capabilities(such as speed, strength, endurance, etc.) by feeding it directly into his physical body, or imbue objects and people with it to enhance their capabilities. Anything that Mars has imbued can be telepathically controlled to move at his command, though the larger and/or more complex the subject, the more energy and time the process needs. He usually imbues his chakrams with this ability so he can keep control of the battlefield, never letting his foe rest as he tries to slash them to pieces. He can only control about 6 objects at any given time.

Mars can eventually learn how to 'overload' his physical form, greatly increasing his physical capabilitied abilities for a short time. Afterwards, however, he'll suffer from a heavy amount if fatigue, possibly losing his ability to keep his form due to straining himself too much. This would be last resort move, only to be used when he's really backed into a corner.The amount of time he can be in this form: up to 3 posts, depending on how much energy he currently has stored, and the longer he stays in the form, the more likely he'll poof upon exiting it. Also, whennin this form, his pupils become like thise of a Tiger, a luminescent orb of gold ferocity that'd strike fear in the most hardened of foes.

Weapon:
Mars' weapon are Chakrams, circular throwing blades with a keen edge. He can summon ones without handles, made only for throwing, or ones with handles in the center, allowing them to be used in melee combat. He can even seperated a Chakram in half to make two slashing weapons, so allowing him to eviscerate his foe in close quarters. The size of the blades can be increased or decreased at his descretion, and he cansummon several chakrams at anytime as long as they're of a manegable size( the biggest one he could summon multiple of at a time would be slightly bigger than a basket ball). The most he can summon at simultaneously is 5, around 10 us the most he can have in total, and the smaller the disc, the faster it flies. His smallest disc could fit in the palm of ones hand.

Others:
Prefers to be called Mars, full name is too long, and just Marra doesn't feel right to him. He also likes to transform a lot, usually taking the shape of some sort of animal, though he will change into another gem on occasion, just to freak them out a bit.

[Raijinslayer]

Any and all thoughts and opinions are welcome from anyone and everyone.

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Raijinslayer

I really like it and the direction you are going for but I am worried that the Gem seems a bit over powered
