Fluorite (MissFitt)

Fluorite is a character created by MissFitt and is a part of the MissVerse. She was subject to a series of secret military experiments that gave her the ability to manipulate ultraviolet light in ways that have never been seen before.

Appearance
Fluorite has a slender build with pale purple skin, and her hair (in a low ponytail) and eyes are a bright blue from the fluorescence her gem (and as a result her physical form) emits. Her gem is a purple fluorite that appears to be always bathed in ultraviolet located on her navel.

Her outfit consists of two parts, with different shades of a dull purple, reminiscent of a purple fluorite under visible light. Her elbow-length gloves, knee-high boots, and the diamond insignia on her torso are the darkest while her sleeves and pants are the lightest.

Personality
Fluorite is a quiet individual who prefers not to draw much attention to herself. Nevertheless, she is also kind-hearted and wants to do what is right, and will go out of her way to help others in need. She is also bright and curious, and can be fascinated by whatever she encounters for the first time.

She is also an idealistic dreamer who tries to find the light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how discouraged she feels about a situation. This often makes her somewhat naive and absent-minded. If things do not turn out as she hoped, she can become quite depressed.

Background
Not much is known about Fluorite's past, but it seems that she was originally from the Gem Homeworld. Even she does not remember. What is known is that at one point, she and several other Gems were recruited, either willingly or against their will, to be subjected to grueling experiments meant to augment the standard abilities of Gems and create super soldiers that would be under the direct command of the military elite.

As a part of these experiments, Fluorite was forcibly poofed and her gemstone was exposed to high levels of ultraviolet radiation for long periods of time. This artificial irradiation caused her to develop powers that have not been observed in other Gems of her kind.

At some point, she and some of the other subjects escaped and went their separate ways, while the rest were made to serve the Homeworld's ambitions. After a lengthy, undetermined period of time, Fluorite decided to set out to find her fellow prison mates.

Powers and Abilities
Fluorite can be assumed to possess the standard abilities of any Gem, including shapeshifting and the ability to retreat into her gemstone if gravely injured. However, the experiments she was subject to endowed her with the ability to generate and harness ultraviolet light, either from her gemstone or an outside source, in a variety of ways, including:
 * Energy blasts: Among her many acquired abilities is that she can channel the ultraviolet radiation she naturally emits in her hands and use them for various purposes, such as projectiles, a steady ray, or to add more power to her punches and kicks. At high levels, she can use them to punch through or tear holes into various materials, including metal.
 * Weapon formation: She can shape the UV light she has mustered into various weapons, like a long staff or a bladed weapon that, at high intensity, can cut through all kinds of material.
 * Defensive Uses: Fluorite can also use UV light defensively. She can either block attacks by creating a small wall with the swipe of her hand, or she can make a dome-shaped shield to protect herself from others from multiple attacks at once. However, the latter can be physically draining to her if sustained for a long period of time.
 * Image projection: She can also use her light to make holograms or visual representations of what she describes for demonstrative or artistic aims.

Weaknesses
For all her strengths, Fluorite's power takes a physical and mental toll on her. Using UV light at high intensity or sustaining it (such as in her shield) for a long time causes her a lot of strain and often leaves her exhausted. This becomes more apparent the more she exerts herself. In extreme cases, she could risk having to retreat into her gem in order to recharge. However, being near another source of UV light, such as a nearby star, alleviates these symptoms.

Trivia

 * It is uncertain whether or not there are other fluorites. This could mean that either there are no more fluorites or they are simply overlooked or ignored by the Gem Homeworld, as they are not widely considered as gems.
 * Fluorite does not know of any others of her kind, most likely due to her memory loss (which could be a side effect of the treatments she endured). She is not certain of what abilities she would have if she were not experimented on.
