Personality: Diopside is a character with a wide range of personality traits. She can go from being a pleasant individual to a foul mouthed monster within seconds. Her mood swings are rather random, so there is no predicting a switch in attitude. Most of the time, Diopside is obsessive, eccentric, and obnoxious. She is a loud mouthed individual that takes no nonsense from her inferiors. It brings her joy to annoy others, more so allies. Some of her obsessions include people of power, power itself, fusing, and her crew mates.
The above statements are the more positive aspects of her personality. Diopside believes that she is allowed to act like a monster since she looks like one. For enemies, she loves to torment them and scare them. When she is on the hunt, it is best to watch yourself around her, or you may become her target. Diopside would be chaotic neutral on the alignment spectrum.

A specialized ability that you have, eg. Garnet's lightning manipulation and Lava Immunity or amethyst's cloud creation or Lapis’ control over water. You get two of these put there names here but put the details in the below section
Ability 1: Cloaking- Diopside can become almost completely invisible. This ability works best in dark environments. If she were to be in a light environment while cloaked, her figure can be seen in a very translucent state- almost like a ghost.
Ability 2: Entrapment- Diopside is a walking prison. If she were to fuse with someone, she could keep them trapped in the fusion until it is no longer required. (Similar to Lapis and Jasper as Malachite) This ability could be responsible for her erratic behavior.


Fusions: None yet, hoping to have a few though.

History: Diopside was originally created to serve under Yellow Diamond, as a sort of bounty hunter. Due to her ‘difficult’ personality, she was sent on solo, off planet expeditions to either retrieved stranded gems or to capture wayward ones. It was because of this that she was either seen as a savior or a monster. Depending on the task, Diopside may be away for long periods of time on very diverse planets which require survival skills.
It is because of her skills and efficiency that she was transferred to White Diamonds court. Diopside was given a new ship to help with her missions, a ship which she lovingly refers to as The White Star (can be seen in her reference). Black Star was permitted to pick out a crew of her own, as well as a pearl for herself. The crew of the White Star had many successful missions, until they were ordered to investigate missing gems from WD's court. Accepting this mission was the first breaking point of Diopside.
The White Star’s crew had landed on Earth to investigate the reports, unknowing of the odd sickness that had developed on the planet. The Corruption. For the crew, it was the stress that weakened them. Earth was a very different planet then what they were used to. Slowly their persona’s changed and they eventually became monsters. If it weren’t for Diopside’s distorted persona, she may not have survived.
Unable to call back to Home world for assistance, Diopside was left on her own to deal with her corrupted crew mates. Being the huntress she was, Black Star tracked down each member of her crew and shattered them, believing they were far from help. Before she could finish her task, the corruptions destroyed the hyper-drive on her ship, leaving her on Earth. Had it not been for the disappearances and corruptions, Diopside would have continued on with her career.


Character Arcs:
Some of my plans for Diopside include her rebuilding a crew of loyal gems to help her battle the Crystal Gems and corruptions.
I eventually want to develop her into a power-crazed tyrant which will cause her to become corrupt. ('Cause who doesn't love a good villain?)

((This stuff is just optional so you don't have to do it, we ended up having a theme going on where in Black Star gems all were tied into the void or warp space in some way, the idea being that some gemstones turn into black star gems when exposed to void or warp space energy.

Ie: Black Star Sapphire steven-universe-rp.proboards.com/thread/303/enter-void-info-signup (Warp pad malfunctioned infusing and trapping his form within the warp space, his gem corrupting to a Black star Sapphire from his normal orange Sapphire)

Black Star Diopside steven-universe-rp.proboards.com/thread/1247/zerul-black-star-diopside (experimented on to try and harness or increase warp energy, was turned into a Black Star Diopside because of this)

And there was a third Star gem that was not a black variation who just and the ability to access warp space by creating her own portals.

Entirely optional but I thought I would throw it out if you wanted to go with the theme of having something to do with the space inbetween warp streams)


Back on topic though, you would have to consult with the gem your fusing with Out of character to see if they give you permission to lock down their character in a fusion, since doing it without permission would be a form of god modding. With that permission thing in mind, you could just have it be part of your personality and not have it take a ability slot,Lapis had a strong will allowing them to remain fused, it would likely be a similar thing here, you have a strong will.

((and if you wished have a ability based around my aforementioned void/warp space/space between the warp streams theme, if you wanted? As i mentioned anything to do with that warp stuff is just optional.)

I think that since this Diopside was originally born/ created as a black star type gem, that she doesn't really have an ability revolving around the warps. It could be more of a weakness though, like maybe she experiences pain or something whenever she warps. This could be one of the main reasons for her owning her own ship. Maybe once she becomes fully corrupted, she could be the creature that sort of haunts the space between warp streams?

As for her second ability, I understand that I'll need to ask permission from the other players to use it. I was originally going to put it in but decided against it. I try my best to not power play as I know it's not a very fun position to be in.

[njrk97]

That is fine since your aware you need to ask, i was mentioning that if you wanted you could have it be personality trait instead ability,but you can keep it as one if you wish.

Normally i have a cooldown on cloaks,but in your case since its not absolute i may allow it with a unlimited duration.

[BSDiopside]

Alright thank you. Should I edit this info in or is the bio fine as it is?

For the entrapment ability I'd rather keep it as an ability than a personality trait. I don't really have another ability to fill into the bio.

[njrk97]

Currently Homeworld is not aware of the rebellion on Earth,very soon they will be,but not right now. What they know is that they have lost all contact with earth and the other members they have sent have not returned, so you could have it be that her crew was sent on a rescue mission to retrieve the gems under White Diamond that were stranded on the planet. Then continue with the rest of your history about your crew corrupting and so on.
