## Turquoise

* Current
* Debut
* Stylised

**Turquoise** is BDTA’s interpretation of the fusion of Lapis Lazuli and Peridot.

## Appearance

Turquoise has a slim body and is quite tall with four skinny arms coming from her shoulders. She has a light turquoise complexion and short teal hair that curves out into pointy tufts at the sides. She has two dark teal eyes and undefined lips. Her gemstones are found on her forehead and upper back and are turquoise in colour.

### Pre-regeneration (debut)

Turquoise wore a sleeveless teal V-neck crop top with a Yellow Diamond insignia at the middle of the chest and an upward-facing dark teal triangle that meets the Diamond insignia at the points. She had dark teal armbands on all her arms and teal wide leg shorts with a downward-facing dark teal triangle at the waist, yellow accents on the hips and the hemline of her shorts was also yellow. She had long dark teal socks with yellow diamond-shaped knee pads and cut-outs at the toes. She also wore a white visor with deep teal straps.

### Post-regeneration (current)

Turquoise now wears a teal crop top with a dark teal lower half that has the top half of a star in the middle, and a thin yellow stripe separates the teal top half from the darker bottom half. She still has armbands on all four arms, but they are now gold instead of yellow. She has long puffy dark teal pants similar to Lapis with teal top halves of stars at the bottom of the pants close to the hem, and tied with a gold ribbon, resembling the elastic knot of swim trunks. She also has closed sandals which are open at the toes and her goggles are chartreuse and more butterfly-shaped with gold straps.

## Abilities

Turquoise possesses standard Gem abilities, including fusion, bubbling, shapeshifting, regeneration, superhuman strength/durability and agelessness.

### Fusions

* When fused with Bismuth, they form Chrysocolla.
* When fused with Jasper, they form Kosmochlor.
* When fused with Amazonite and Turquoise they form Tyrolite.
* When fused with Ruby, Sapphire, Amethyst, Pearl, Steven, and Bismuth, they form Galaxite.

### Unique Abilities

* **Ferrokinesis:** Turquoise inherits Peridot’s power to manipulate metal.
* **Hydrokinesis:** Turquoise inherits Lapis Lazuli’s power to manipulate water and liquid material.
* **Ermískinesis:** Turquoise can manipulate liquid mercury as a combination of Peridot’s ferrokinesis and Lapis’ hydrokinesis.
	+ **Ermísgenesis:** She can generate liquid mercury out of the atmosphere and use this to create various types of weapons.
	+ **Flight:** She is able to create mercury wings and, presumably, fly.

### Skillset

* **Multiple Weapon Proficiency:** Turquoise is incredibly skilled and versatile being able to fight with all kinds of weapons that she can create with her mercury manipulation. She usually creates maces, a morning star, or shurikens that she can wield in all four arms with ease, however she can create just about anything and be excellent at using it in battle.
* **Piloting:** Turquoise can pilot Homeworld ships like Peridot, yet she can also pilot her own ships made by her mercury manipulation.
