Blaire

**Blaire Clieber** (born **Nazli Musharraf**) is an unallied character, a former member of The Reeves' Palace club. She is the antagonist of the comic "Steven Universe: Odyssey in Thailand"

## Appearance

Blaire has a slim build, almond brown skin, dark brown hair, navy blue eyes and with her gem embedded in the forehead.

Blaire is always seen with black makeup lips, sculpted nails painted black similar to White Diamond's, a silver 4 spiked necklace, gold bracelets on both wrists, and purple earrings with purple floating gems similar to the Jasper's gem. Her clothing consists of a purple tank top, dark blue jean shorts, and black converse sneakers.

## Personality

When she lived with her father, Blaire was very quiet and almost submissive, but deep down she had a lot of accumulated hatred and helplessness.

When she was accepted into The Reeves' Palace, and began to interact with the members, Blaire brought out her cheerful, fun, outgoing and witty side, the club members remember that version of Blaire as "Someone who could cheer you up with her presence"

After a good number of months, Blaire would begin to develop "bizarre" behaviors ranging from just being arrogant, to laughing at other people's misfortunes and verbally and physically abusing everyone.

## Abilities

Being a human/Gem hybrid, Blaire is capable of using Gem magic, though it is unknown if she possesses all the abilities of a pure Gem, such as retreating to their gemstone when taking fatal damage

* **Mental Control:** Blaire can mentally control her victims, to do so she first activates her gem and it begins to shine, and then her eyes will also begin to emit an almost blinding glow, that means that the mental control is active, and whoever looks into her eyes will fall under her control. When a victim (either humans or gems) falls under Blaire's mind control, their eyes will go completely blank and a black, viscous liquid will begin to secrete from them and from the mouth. When the victim is under Blaire's mind control, they will be unable to speak or move, and will be left in a position similar to that of puppets that are maneuvered using strings.

## Curiosities

* Blaire was born in a slum of Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.
* She was created taking Vicky from Fairy Odd Parents as inspiration
* Blaire's character development was one of the hardest to do
* Her father, Mehmet Musharraf, was a pimp who was also alcoholic, violent and forced her to have s\*x with men for money, money that he also did not allow her to have since he spent it on his nonsense
* Blaire is accused of killing her father, dismembering him and using his meat for food for her stepsiblings. However, Mehmet's crime is a mystery, since none of his other children wanted to give statements and they opted for ostracism, therefore, Blaire might not be the culprit of the murder.
* After the mysterious murder of her father, Blaire decided to run away from home forever, wandering aimlessly through Dhaka until she arrived at the port, and saw a container ship going to the United States, without thinking twice she got on it and spent several months at sea
* After arriving in the United States, Blaire realized that she did not speak the language and that she also did not know anyone, so she spent a couple more months of hardship, having to return to prostitution to survive, until one day she saw an advertisement for a girls' club (which, by the way, was written in several languages, including Bengali, which was hers) posted on a pole, which was looking for girls in difficult situations to help them get ahead
* After an interview with the club that placed the ad (The Reeves' Palace), Blaire was immediately joined, and was offered a permanent stay at the venue and a comfortable bed. And although it took a while, she was able to adapt and relate well with all the other girls in the club, things began to improve for Blaire, and before she knew it she was already speaking English and had a job in a grocery store and paid well. she had her friends and was happy

## Gemology

* Carbonado, commonly known as "black diamond", is the toughest form of natural diamond.
* It is an impure form of polycrystalline diamond consisting of diamond, graphite, and amorphous carbon.
* It is found primarily in alluvial deposits in the Central African Republic and in Brazil.
* Its natural color is black or dark grey, and it is more porous than other diamonds.
* Carbonado diamonds are typically pea-sized or larger porous aggregates of many tiny black crystals.
* The most characteristic carbonados have been found only in the Central African Republic and in Brazil, in neither place associated with kimberlite, the source of typical gem diamonds.
* Lead isotope analyses have been interpreted as documenting crystallization of carbonados about 3 billion years ago.
