Gem: Snowflake Obsidian
Name if your gem goes by a different name: Snowflake
Appearance:
Snowflake is a beanpole, by gem standards and by Snowflake Obsidian standards. Easily rivaling the height of the Rebellion Perma-Fusion Garnet, Snowflake is on the thinner side of life. Her thin and lithe body allows her to move rather impressively, despite her height.
Powers: Temperature Manipulation[4/4]: For making areas as viable as possible, Snowflake Obsidians are able to control the temperature around them. This was especially useful when finding potential spots for new Kindergartens. On a technical level, this ability is friction manipulation at its bases state, only effecting the molecules in the air.
Snowflake is able to manipulate the temperature of the air around her at will. Not only being able to radiate her desired temperature, but she can change the temperature of her body, as well as change the temperature of "zones" around her. To a very small extent, this allows her to freeze things, generate ice, melt items, or even make things catch fire, but this requires a good deal of concentration.
Thermal Vision[2/4]: Due to having no eyes, Snowflake has been equipped with thermal vision. This allows her to see, regardless of light level. After having lived so long with this special ability, Snowflake is barely effected by drastic changes in light and heat, though she can be forgetful, and simply not use her thermal vision, making her blind when focused on other things.
Items: Flame/Snow Thrower - Snowflake's summon, it works with her temperature manipulation to launch either snow/ice or fire.
Backstory: Snowflake was a fighter in the rebellion. She abandoned her post as a planet-scouter and ecological specialist to fight against the gems who conquered words and took them apart for their own selfish needs. Snowflake was already matured by the time she was stationed at earth, having been quite jaded with the procedure. All previous planets had simple, hardly sentient life. Earth showed her that organic life was something worth preserving, and joined Bismuth in leaving Homeworld to fight with Rose Quartz.
After the diappearance of Bismuth on a solo-mission, Snowflake decided to stay at her outpost with the others, protecting the warp pads that she was responsible for.
Writing example:
Anything extra you'd like to add:After living so long, Snowflake has become quite the wordsmith. She knows how to talk to people, and tries not to use her powers of word crafting and manipulation for evil. She only wants to help people and shield them from truths they aren't ready to know yet.

Gem: Astrophyllite
Name if your gem goes by a different name: Astro
Appearance:
Powers: Electromagnetic field generation.[4/4] The fields she can create are tiny and seemingly useless, especially when considering that they can only be generated around her body, but Astrophyllite has found a great use for them. She uses them for mobility, and combat, often generating a field in the place where an enemy will strike and lock the tool of the enemy there so they can't move or use it. Warning: do not use around radios, they have a tendency to block certain waves.
Items: Throwing Axe, summon.
Backstory: Astrophyllite was born with a softer gem than most of her kind, which, when paired with the others, was always spoken about, resulting in her fearing that one day it will break because of something simple and insignificant. She always followed her orders to the letter, more of fear from her diamond than actual respect, but did so nonetheless. One day, she was moved from her team to another team, still a young gemling (as the other Astrophyllites likes calling her), and she asked no questions about the movement.
Writing example: Astrophyllite, or simply Astro, as she called herself in privacy, had only ever broken the rules at one point in her two-hundred year life. It had happened one hundred and fifty six years ago, and she had taken a recorder and an unused log tablet for her own personal use. It had never garnered attention, but to this day, she always feared that someone was going to walk into her chambers and find the stolen equipment.
"Log. Erm, let's see now..." She muttered to herself, the recorder active as she spoke into the microphone end. "Sol two hundred, exact. Two hundred years after my creation." It wasn't really of any importance to her. The others didn't seem to celebrate annually, especially with pesky things like relativity, and she was created on a planet that followed a different cycle than homeworld, so there was that too. "The planet of my creation is still intact, barely. All of the natives had long since evacuated by now."
A faint knocking could be heard from the recording, but the knock was much louder in person. "Five Three Zero Nine, we have ten minutes to report. I expect to see you at the briefing platform in five, gemling."
"O-of course!" Astro nodded, though the figure could obviously not see through walls. "I will be there momentarily."
Without another sound from the other Astrophyllite, Astro sighed and put the log away, leaving just the recorder out. "I know I've stated it before, but it seems like Astrophyllite Seven Two Seven Three, or Prima, as she likes being called, has set up a rank for our little group. Maybe it makes a little more sense since we don't often fuse with one another like Rubies or others do, so there is no collaborative mindset, but I just wish that she stopped treating me like the lowest link in the chain." A soft breath escaped her lips, her hand reaching to the button on the recorder.
"Log over."
