Caster (Fate Crossover - Lapis Lazuli)

Lapis is a member of a race of aliens known as Gems that reside in another galaxy, separate from the Milky Way. These gems are divided into a variety of different races, each with their own unique purpose, which were formerly divided into a caste system.

Lapis belongs to the race of gems known as Lapis Lazulis. Their race was made for the purpose of terraforming newly discovered planets to make them more suitable for colonization, in a manner similar to the **Planetary Environment Modification Plant-Ship Poseidon** of the Twelve Machine Gods, and were thus ranked highly in Homeworld's hierarchy.

#### History

Lapis was originally sent to Earth over 5300 years ago in order to help terraform it to make it more suitable for the purposes of the Gems. Unfortuanetly, she arrived in the midst of the great conflict known as The Gem War, between the forces of the Crystal Gems, who sought to protect the Earth from the effects of colonization and the destruction of its environment, and the forces of Homeworld. During one of the battles, her form was destroyed and her gem was cracked by one of the Crystal Gems. Later, one of the Homeworld Gems, mistaking her for one of the Crystal Gems, placed her gem in a mirror to be used as a tool in order to find out more information on the Crystal Gems.

Thus, she was trapped inside for the next several millenia, fully conscious, but unable to communicate save for repeating others speech.

She would remain this way until the present, when her gem was released from its prison by Steven Universe.

### Appearance

Lapis has a slim figure and is of comparable height to a typical human woman, being around 165 cm tall. She has cyan skin, cobalt blue chin-length hair with long bangs and fringe that covers her entire forehead, which occasionally looks messier and rounded, and royal blue eyes. Her gemstone is embedded in her back, which takes the form of a water droplet.

### Personality

Caster has a fairly laid back personality, to the point of being almost blase or lazy. Though she was originally much more aloof and quick to anger, her time spent on Earth has caused her to mellow out for the most part. Caster cares deeply about her loved ones and is fully willing to subject herself to all sorts of tribulations for their sake, such as sealing herself at the bottom of the ocean to keep an enemy contained. Caster also possesses an element of self-loathing for several of her past actions, such as her fusion with Jasper and the abuse she inflicted on them, along with her destruction of other worlds in the past, although she has mostly gotten over this now. She also cares deeply for animals, as evidenced by how she went out of her way to ensure the marine animals caught within her constructs remain unharmed.

## Abilities

Caster and those of her kind are created for the purpose of terraforming newly discovered worlds to make them more amenable for colonization by Gems. As such they are possessed of immense powers to shape the surface of planets.

### Skills

#### Class Skills

***One Who Crosses the Sea of Stars** (A rank):* Caster is a member of an alien race whose homeworld resides in an entirely separate galaxy. Caster, in particular, is capable of FTL travel, being able to travel between Earth and her homeworld in a matter of days.

***Territory Creation** (EX rank):* Caster and those of her kind are born for the purpose of terraforming entire worlds, in a manner similar to Poseidon's original Function as a Machine God.

#### Personal Skills

***Authority of Water** (A+ Rank): Caster and those of her kind possess an immensely powerful form of hydrokinesis. Such is their ability that they're capable of reshaping the surface of entire worlds, with Caster once taking an entire ocean's worth of water and forming into a pillar. Caster's control is particularly advanced, even for those of her kind.*

***Gem Kind** (A Rank): Caster is a member of an alien race known as Gems. Gems can be considered a form of Light Elemental, as their forms are hard-light projections emanated by their gem, which can be considered analogous to the Spirit Core of a Servant. One unique function possessed by Gems is the ability to combine with other members of their kind, in a process known as Fusion. Fusions between different kinds of gems are much stronger than the sum of their components. One drawback to this is that the fusion is dependent on harmony between the components. Discord can result in the components fighting for control, or potentially defusing.*

***Valor** (A Rank): Caster is possessed of an extremely strong will, having withstood millenia of trauma and isolation without breaking and devolving into insanity. Such is her willpower that she was capable of withstanding the full brunt of a mental interference skill from one of the Diamonds, who are the Gem equivalent of Gods.*

### Noble Phantasm

#### *Aqua Arcanum: Torrential Sovereignty - Anti-Unit - Anti-World: E ~ EX*

A Noble Phantasm derived from Casters Authority over Water, she has the ability to freely manipulate water in a wide variety of manners. She can form it into various constructs that she can control., such as hands, chains, saws, and spears. She can also create flawless, powerful water clones of her enemies that mimic their fighting styles. She can also alter the state of water, turning it from water to ice. However, for as powerful as this Noble Phantasm is, it has a critical weakness. Namely, it's dependent on external sources of water, meaning should Caster find herself in an area with no water, she will be effectively helpless, save for using the water stored in her gem to fly. It's for this reason the Noble Phantasm has such a wide range in classification and rank.
