Name:
Spider.
Appeared Gender:
Female
Appeared Age:
Later twenties to early thirty's.
Gemstone:
Spider Web Jasper link
Gemstone Location: Her right wrist.
Corrupted:(N) Despite what some people think, Spider is not evil.
Appearance:
Spider stands at a somewhat short height. Roughly 5foot, but sometimes that can be rounded down. She opts to not wear shoes so her black feet are normally always seen. Starting at her feet Spider's skin is black, but it slowly fades to a dark gray as you go up. She has two sets of arms, the main set of arms are typically adorned by red bracelets, or any kind of bracelet really and the other set, the secondary set of arms are black that fade into dark grey, much like her feet.
Two sets of eyes are on her face, the main set of eyes being a rather soothing shade of green. They are feminine but rather intimating looking. The top pair of eyes are smaller, much more narrow, and red. A dark, violent, bloody looking red. Despite the two eyes being very different in shape, they always seem to show the same emotion. As they are all shared by 1 set of eyebrows.
Her teeth are sharp and rather spooky, which is why Spider tends to keep her lips pressed into a thin line.
Over all, Spider is a truly scary looking gem.

Personality: Spider can come across as a bit... Standoffish... At first! When first encountered, Spider tries to stand her own ground and get a feel for whoever she has encountered. A truly harsh word won't leave her lips unless she feels she truly knows you, and even then it might be in jest. Spider tries to think of herself as light hearted but that is clearly not the case. She tends to hold a grudge and with a appearance like hers people tend to make snap judgements and that leads to Spider holding those grudges.
After getting past first encounters, Spider is a rather mellow soul. Something akin to a hippie mixed with a wise old woman... And perhaps a bit of goth mixed in there as well. She likes gems and people that stick to their word and are honest with her. Those will earn her trust quickly compared to someone who lies, cheats, and steals.
Likes/Dislikes:
+ Dark places
+ Bugs, spiders mostly
+ Solid ground
+ Coffee
- Heights
- Thieves
- Vampire jokes
- Overly preppy humans
Fears:
Heights.
Going back to Homeworld.
Killing someone who is innocent.
Weapon: String. From Spider's gem, she can summon black string. This string can be as thick as rope, as sturdy as chains, or as thin as a fishing line. All with the same amount of strength. She has used her string to tie up some enemies, or it can be used in a more subtle manner to trip those who are running. With time and some effort, Spider can even make a web.
Ability 1: Poisoned teeth. Those sharp teeth aren't just for show, they contain a poison that is highly dangerous for gems. Any gem who gets close enough to Spider runs the risk of her sinking her teeth into their projected form. If the poison from her teeth get into the victims system it burns intensely and causes great amounts of agony over time but only if infected. The poison will move towards the gem. The longer she keeps herself attached to them, the more likely the poison is to affect them. If she manages to get her poison into a crack on the gem either shatters after many days of 'fighting off' the poison or the gem lives and gains immunity to the poison.
It is unknown what happens to a human when they get bit by Spider. She has yet to test it, and honestly doesn't want to.
Ability 2: Wall crawling. Picture Nightcrawler from X-Men, thats kinda how it works for Spider but with some more added concentration. If Spider is fighting someone and they hit Spider and she gets slammed backwards into the wall she won't stick even if shes not passed out. If Spider gets slammed into the wall and shes facing the wall, like if the attack was from behind, she would stick to it.
Fusions: None yet.
History: Every diamond has some spiders. Nothing too noticeable, just something for them to send as scouts, or even recon the other diamonds with. The spies of homeworld, their called. Someone you fear coming for you in the middle of the night and just as hard to take down. Designated to be a scout and sometimes assassin, Spider accepted her fate. She traveled to other planets first and foremost and reported to her superiors on whether or not the planet had potential use for her White Diamond. Spider herself never saw White Diamond, or any of the Diamonds for that matter, but her fellow spiders were eager to share stories of the terrible things the Diamonds did to defectors, and the terrible things THEY did to the defectors as well. With nothing else to believe, she trusted the word of those around her.
Till she was assigned to Earth. Earth, by this time, had just lost its commucation hub.
She fought another gem on a cliffside and had been knocked off the edge. This is where her fear of heights came from. She had never been dropped from such a height before, she couldn't concentrate enough to shoot out her string and stick to the edge. So she crashed into the ground, the foliage was thick so when her combatant came looking for her, they weren't able to find the small crevice her gem had rolled into under all the grass. To this day, she never found out who that gem was that knocked her off the cliff.
She remained there for many earth months... When she finally popped back out, it was night time and Spider was face to face with a Earth spider. A Wolf Spider. She found the creature beautiful, it was so tiny compared to the rest of the planet. It was while watching this spider when her doubts about her life started to surface. Could she truly kill something so tiny? So helpless? Where the Diamonds wrong? Had Spider been responsible for the destruction of other creatures like this one? She had even tried to contact homeworld but found that nothing seemed to work here. She was alone on this planet and couldn't find any more of her spider sisters on the planet.
There was no way she could fight off the gems that inhabited this planet and honestly, Spider didn't want to. While roaming the small human city a transmission came across the nearby radio, a female was pleading with the gems on the Earth to protect it. Spider felt... Compassion and wanted to do as the woman asked, but knew she wouldn't be trusted right away. She had, after all, fought on the side of the Homeworld gems.
So, for now... Spider bides her time. Waiting for the chance to prove herself and gain the chance to join these so-called crystal gems.
Character Arcs: Getting over her fear of heights is going to be interesting. I hope this will be conquered with help from another gem or person, as a spider who refuses to climb walls is a rather strange spider.
Finding and accepting her place on earth. Even if she gets accepted into the Crystal Gems I do not expect the transition to be smooth. Spiders have a tendency to get close to people and then betray them at the last second, or others could think its always an act. A long term espionage mission to learn the ins and outs of the Rebellion and then report back to homeworld.
