## Personality

Thorite has a very bland personality, even though he is very monotone it doesn't mean he has no emotions. He stays insanely calm during battle with most foes but if he encounters a challenge or obstacle he becomes more focused on the task at hand.

The only time he has any of those emotions is when he has flashbacks involving his past life.

* Thorite likes to travel and find other swordsmen as skilled as he is.
* Thorite at first thought he was a normal Human being, until he tried to remove his gem and forced himself to poof.
* Other Human beings sometimes saw Thorite as a god/spirit. For instance he was once mistaken as Ra (The Egyptian God of Sun).
* Thorite (even though he is corrupted) can fuse with other gems, at first though he couldn't fuse due to a natural magnetic-field that exerts from Thorite. This field can regenerate naturally but once broken allows himself to fuse. (The first occurrence of this was when Chrome threw a rock at Thorite, breaking the field, & causing them to Fuse into Pyrite)
* Thorite was originally going to be a Zircon, but this was scrapped due to Zircons becoming canon.

## Gemology

* Thorite, (Th,U)SiO4, is a rare nesosilicate of thorium that crystallizes in the tetragonal system and is isomorphous with zircon and hafnon.
* It is the most common mineral of thorium and is nearly always strongly radioactive.
* It was named in 1829 to reflect its thorium content.
* Specimens of thorite generally come from igneous pegmatites and volcanic extrusive rocks, hydrothermal veins and contact metamorphic rocks.
* Thorite is commonly metamict and hydrated, making it optically isotropic and amorphous. Owing to differences in composition, the specific gravity varies from 4.4 to 6.6 g/cm3. Hardness is 4.5 and the luster is vitreous or resinous. The color is normally black, but also brownish black, orange, yellowish-orange and dark green.
