Name: Dalmatian Jasper
Appeared Gender: Female
Appeared Age: Twenties
Gemstone Location: Left Eye
Corrupted: Stage 1 Corruption. (Becomes more corrupted each time she fights.)
Appearance: Dalmatian Jasper has the same general form as other Jaspers, a large imposing figure and a body built to take punishment. The differences between her and other Jaspers in this regard are minimal. With her gem taking up her left eye, a black band has formed horizontally over it, with an 'O' shape in the middle, where a black dot remains in the center, like an eye.
In terms of colors, Dalmatian Jasper is more visibly unique. Her hair, large and wild, is a stark, glistening white. Her one non-gem eye is a medium tone of grey, and her skin is an extremely light grey, with streaks of a darker grey over her body. Her uniform lacks any distinguishing symbols or marks that would apply her to a faction, as in the standard places where a star or other symbol would be, her clothing seems to fold into itself.
Her uniform is a dark grey color, with the trims and accents being a numbing black.
Personality: Dalmatian Jasper, despite her purpose and build, is a surprisingly non-violent gem. She seems to lack much aggression, and her mental fortitude to handle situations involving such levels of conflict are extremely low. Lacking any brash attitudes common with other Jasper soldiers, she stands out quite a bit when compared to Jaspers she had been generated with.
Due to this, Dalmatian Jasper is actually a rather kind gem. She respects other gems, and holds a level of appreciation for life on earth. She'd personally rather be a supportive gem than one who runs out and slams into conflict. Her anti-violent personality goes into more than just fighting. When faced with conflict such as arguments, she's known to simply shut down, often just agreeing with the other party, regardless of what is being said, even if its insults targeting her.
When fighting, her 'tactics' rely on what amounts to muscle memory, using what is basically programmed into her gem as her only real source of tactics. Her mind practically shuts down, and her eyes glaze over during this time. Even though her weapons have blades on the end, she tends to fight by slamming the shield part of her weapon into her opponent. Whether it be to block their attacks, or to just harm them, her weapon was obviously not made with her attitude in mind.

Weapon: Dalmatian Jaspers weapons compose of two shields, each with a curved blade at the end of them. The shields are the rough shape and size of her forearms, and only have blades on one side. However, the non-bladed sides can be connected, and the weapon used mainly as a shield, with two weapons on the end of them. The weapon is gray, with a black edge and grey blades. Each shield can take 2-3 heavy, direct hits before breaking.
Ability: Dalmatian Jasper can summon 'mirror' versions of herself. She is only capable of summoning two of them. While they act independently of the original, they are incapable of actually interacting with the world around them, making their uses as anything other than a distraction null.
Ability 2: Dalmatian Jasper can use a Powered Up Spin Dash attack, whether for use of an attack or for quick movements. It takes a few moments to power up, and she is completely capable of sacrificing its power for a quicker launch.
Fusions: None Applicable.
History: Like other quartz gems, she was made for the sole purpose of being a soldier. Sent with other Jaspers and other gems, she was sent to Earth as a guard for a Kindergarten. The events happening there unnerved her, but she still did her job, doing what she was told and assisting with heavy lifting and such.
However, one day, her station was attacked. It was a small scale attack, nothing that would cause any alarm, or would do any damage to the Kindergarten or the events unfolding there, but it was important to Dal. What happened there unnerved her. During the fight, she found out something about herself, something that scared her. She wasn't mentally capable of handing conflicts such as fighting.
Unnerved and mentally scattered, she gave chase to the gems that attacked as they fled from the area. As she ran, her thoughts were too focused on trying to stay calm to notice that she had been separated from her fellow Jaspers. Then, all at once, she was surrounded and poofed.
Her gem was never recovered by either side. Whether because it was abandoned, or simply lost in the snow, no one picked it up. By the time she reformed, days later, she was still afraid, and still unstable. Her form was inconsistent, and she had a hard time summoning her weapon. It was during this time she was corrupted, as it seems that the spread of corruption in her directly correlated with her fighting.
She left, and began to wander the snowy forests nearby, fitting it quite nicely with her color scheme. Ever since, she has simply roamed Earth, trying to avoid other gems, and trying even harder to avoid fighting other gems.
Character Arcs:
- Dal comes to terms with the fact that she is corrupted, one of her biggest fears.
- Dal wants companionship again, and must choose a side, despite knowing it could put her into conflict once more.
