## Description

### 2015 (concept)

*Art lies in the eye of the beholder!" Whatever the art form is, like sculpting and jewellery-making, DIAMOND INDIGO, the INDIGO WIZARD of METAL AND JEWELLERY has a very keen eye for intricate details. Being a perfectionist, Diamond is also very particular about how you pronounce her name. Her name is pronounced as "DYE-MOND", not "DULL-MOND or worse, "DE-MON", no pronunciation is acceptable. Creative and artistic, Diamond is always inspired and can create all kinds of art like her beautiful bejewelled bracelets, necklaces and other trinkets and metal sculptures and figurines! Such a unique talent for this artsy-fartsy girl! When in danger, this 17-year-old can outwit her opponents with her artistic sense and her sword-fighting agility!*

### 2017 (concept)

*The CREATIVE. Whatever the art form is, from jewellery-making and painting to writing poetry, SPINEL INDIGO, the Indigo Wizard of Time and Vision has a keen eye when it comes to fair details and aesthetics. Born with psychic powers, this 17-year-old is able to sense dangers around her and have premonitions which is a great asset to her team of best friends when fighting evil. Growing up with an eccentric fortune-teller grandfather who claims he can talk to ghosts and tell such stories and literature professors as her parents, all the other kids and youths in the neighbourhood tend to stray away from her as they thought she is weird and "out of this world". Nonetheless, creative and artistic, Spinel is constantly inspired and has limitless imagination to create loads of wonderful pieces of art like bejewelled bracelets and other trinkets and an assortment of paintings. Plus, she even has her own gallery of artworks being displayed along the corridors of Colourspell High School! Her talent knows no boundaries! Despite being a drama queen at times, Spinel will use her sixth sense and artsy-fartsy skills to combat her opponents!*
