# Profile

## Lore

Hematite is the leader of Hematite Mercenary Corps, a Zolne extermination group for hire with its members consisting almost exclusively of human men.

However, her second-in-command Andalusite normally does her job, with tasks ranging from military drills towards the fellow mercenaries, to planning out effective strategies against upcoming Zolne they're paid to eradicate. Nevertheless, Hematite still has a devoted band of mercenaries at her beck and call due to how she treated them in rewards and other conveniences, such as her great food.

## Personality

Hematite is a very powerful Jewelia. Despite that however she lacks completely in confidence. Because she often "accidentally" wipes out Zolne invasions, she does not believe she's contributing to her group when compared to her mercenary squadron. It is not uncommon to see her trip over clumsily while nervously delegating combat tactics without success. Her fellow mercenaries however still follow her loyally and will fight to the last.

Nevertheless, her leadership skills are shown in her event where she sees through the dangers of using the old regalia weapons that Andalusite has given to their fellow human mercenaries against the Zolne, and has taken the initiative to stop them.

Hematite does excel in cuisine, often cooking for Andalusite and her fellow colleagues.

# Mineralogy

*Hematite is one of the most common minerals. The color of most red and brown rock, such as sandstone, is caused by small amounts of Hematite. Hematite represents courage, bravery, victory and confidence.*

Hematite, also spelled as haematite, is a common iron oxide with a formula of Fe2O3 and is widespread in rocks and soils. The name hematite is derived from the Greek word for blood αἷμα (haima), due to the red coloration found in some varieties of hematite. The color of hematite lends itself to use as a pigment. The English name of the stone is derived from Middle French hématite pierre, which was imported from Latin lapis haematites c. the 15th century, which originated from Ancient Greek αἱματίτης λίθος (haimatitēs lithos, "blood-red stone").

Hematite forms in the shape of crystals through the rhombohedral lattice system, and it has the same crystal structure as ilmenite and corundum. Hematite and ilmenite form a complete solid solution at temperatures above 950 °C (1,740 °F).

Hematite is colored black to steel or silver-gray, brown to reddish-brown, or red. It is mined as the main ore of iron. Varieties include kidney ore, martite (pseudomorphs after magnetite), iron rose and specularite (specular hematite). While these forms vary, they all have a rust-red streak. Hematite is harder than pure iron, but much more brittle. Maghemite is a hematite- and magnetite-related oxide mineral.

Large deposits of hematite are found in banded iron formations. Gray hematite is typically found in places that can have still, standing water or mineral hot springs, such as those in Yellowstone National Park in North America. The mineral can precipitate out of water and collect in layers at the bottom of a lake, spring, or other standing water. Hematite can also occur without water, usually as the result of volcanic activity.

Clay-sized hematite crystals can also occur as a secondary mineral formed by weathering processes in soil, and along with other iron oxides or oxyhydroxides such as goethite, is responsible for the red color of many tropical, ancient, or otherwise highly weathered soils.
