Sapphire

Blue Sapphire

**Sapphires** are an accessory gem that forewarn of future rebellions and weather events.

## Behavior & Abilities

Back in pre-1.9 era KAGIC, Sapphires were transport gems. They traveled at immediately high speeds, carying the player on their heads and turning liquids beneath them solid. They made excellent modes of travel specifically in the Nether due to their ability to turn lava into cobblestone on contact.
Sapphires inflicted a temporary frost walker effect on water and turned lava into cobblestone. Sapphires also give off 4 seconds of luck which gives the player an increased chance of getting "high-quality loot."

In 1.9, Sapphires become accessory gems, their ability to be ridden is removed due to how Minecraft started regulating speed, causing an effect called "rubber-banding." Instead of transport, Sapphires now make predictions regarding time, mob locations, nearby hazards, and weather timing.

In 1.10 Alpha 13 , Sapphires are able to accidentally fuse with Rubies and make a Garnet. When a Sapphire is injured in any way, a Ruby guard will assist her.

In 1.10 Beta 3, Sapphires fall at 50% speed.

## Appearance and Variations

Sapphires have a diamond insignia and outfit that can be colored. Certain Sapphires will form with parted bangs or short hair. The chances of obtaining a blue Sapphire is as high as 80%, while obtaining black or white Sapphires are the rarest, around 2% each.

## Trivia

* In KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 10 , Sapphire's legs were removed from her model. This is most likely due to her legs clipping through her dress when walking.
* Sapphire variations (including their new outfit and hair variations) were added in KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 11 while White Sapphires were added later in KAGIC 1.10 Alpha 18 .
* Sapphires are one of the only gems to display text in-chat other than Aquamarine and Peridot.
