Chrysoprase (Rena-Shi)

Chrysoprase was an aristocratic gem that helped with Homeworlds Kindergartens and is a gem that's currently trapped in one of the hourglasses in the Sea Shrine (largest one surrounded by vines) due to her immense power, She was used for war tactics and was lost in the Sea Shrine, where her hourglass resided. She is currently living with the Crystal Gems after Garnet saved her gem.

## Personality

Chrysoprases personality is very inconsistent in rp so...

## Backstory

During an expedition...

When Homeworld was just starting their galactic empire, they found a planet that they noticed to have an anomaly, a barren waste land with only one inhabitant, a gem. They were confused as to why this barren waste land would have a gem that would be able to be birthed here, but little did they know that gems formation was what caused the planet to go barren.

They took the gem in and assigned them the identification code of what they assumed the gems gemstone was, a Galifrite they assumed ot be a Chrysoprase. After a while the Galifrite grew a conscience and a personality after being exposed to other gems, who didn't know she wasn't created in a Kindergarden, instead being formed naturally, She developed her abilities when on Homeworld

Unluckily for her Homeworld soldiers poofed her without permission from Green Diamond and put her into a Hourglass due to her immense power over nature and their fear of her rebelling.

Her hourglass was used for war tactics due to its holographic properties before a song happened... a song that led gems to scatter and return to Homeworld. She was left in the sea spire until Garnet and Amethyst found her gem and freed her after her gem tripped off some scouters.

 Abilities

### **Skillset**

**Elemental Flashstep**

She can perform a burst of speed via air manipulation that allows her to move so fast it appears as if she has teleported, She can sustain them for a while as long as she uses short dashes. In most cases She is able to maneuver at the high speeds accurately and does not cause any shock or disturbance to the surface she stops on.

### **Powers**

#### **Nature Manipulation**

Chrysoprases nature manipulation is extremely proficient in some places, and weak in others. She is most commonly seen controlling or making Sand, Water, Vines, or Clouds. She doesn't know how to control most of the destructive Elements (Ex: Fire, Lightning, Electricity, etc)

She is able to sense others presence by tapping into the Earth. She can also effect the weather on an emotional and intentional scale, but as she can hardly control the weather as much as the other natures elements, it's mostly a reaction thing. (Ex: Thundering when angry, storming when pissed, raining when sad,etc)

She mostly uses her powers for defensive purposes, or to play around with as she is not a "fighty" type of gem, If pushed to far or she gets tired of the situation though she will fight.

It is possible she is much more powerful than she let's on, but only time will tell.

##### **Elemental Flight**

She can fly, glide and/or levitate through manipulation of different types of elements and energies. She can fly at varying speeds, levitate, or propel herself without taking flight, including enhanced jumping by a short burst of flight. To be nice to the other gems though, she summons a cloud to let others ride.

#### **Power Bestowal**

Chrysoprase is able to bestow powers to other beings via aura-like spheres. More Info Here

## Gemology

Gemstone Information
* Chrysoprase is considered to be the rarest and most valuable stone in the chalcedony quartz group. That's quite a distinction considering that the chalcedony species includes agate, chalcedony, onyx, carnelian, bloodstone and jasper. However, chrysoprase is the least known of all the chalcedony varieties.
* \*\* Like all forms of chalcedony, chrysoprase is durable enough for all kinds of jewelry designs, including rings. Chrysoprase is not known to be treated in any way, though dyed green agate is sometimes used as a simulant.
* The name *chrysoprase* comes from the Greek for "gold-leek", though the name now seems inappropriate, since chrysoprase is typically apple-green to deep-green. Chrysoprase is colored by traces of nickel and is in fact one of the few gemstones colored by nickel. Most green gemstones are colored by iron (such as peridot), chromium (emerald, chrome tourmaline, chrome diopside) or vanadium (tsavorite garnet).
	+ The color of chrysoprase can be quite vivid and is reminiscent of fine jade. Gemologists warn that the color can fade under prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or when heated, though the color may revert to its former glory after storage in a moist environment.
* Chrysoprase has been used as a decorative stone since ancient times. A favorite of Frederick the Great of Prussia, chrysoprase can be seen decorating many buildings in Prague, including the Chapel of St Wenceslas. Today, chrysoprase is often carved, cabochon cut or fashioned into beads. It is also popular for intaglios and cameos.\* This lovely crystal helps to bring acceptance and healing into the cells of the body, and prepare them for deep healing. Through the heart chakra, apple-green chrysoprase has a wonderful energy of love, and, through the solar plexus chakra, it brings you the energy of abundance on all levels.
	+ Chrysoprase is said to be a "victory stone". It is not considered as an anniversary gemstone, but is Alexander the Great's favorite gemstone.
* Chrysoprase occurs in serpentine rocks and in weathered nickel ore deposits. The most famous historical deposits were in Poland, but that mine has been worked out since the fourteenth century. Current sources include Australia, Brazil, India, Madagascar, Tanzania, Kazakhstan, Russia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Tanzania and the USA (California).
