Sphalerite (XB130)

Sphalerite (specifically Sphalerite Facet-1L3X Cut-0PB) is an Homeworld scientist. After reading the few rapports known from Peridot, she developed a desire to study Earth's unique characteristics.

Appearance
Sphalerite has orange skin with red markings on her face and, dark orange hair shaped in a bob-cut with two lighter locks framing her face, and red eyes. Her gemstone is located on her forehead and is shaped like an horizontally-flattened diamond. She has a tall and slightly thin build.

She wears a light-orange sleeveless body suit that reaches her knees, with a square neckline and a diamond drawn around the belly containing a much smaller yellow diamond, a light pink belt made of circles, light-orange rings around her shoulders, light orange forearm cloth, and light pink fingerless gloves, and a green visor.

She also wears pink-and-orange limb enhancers on her legs, despite her proportions suggesting that they don't affect her height.

Personality
Sphalerite is one of Homeworld's most brilliant scientists, but is also a bit lazy, and really stubborn. She has a great curiosity, and once she sets sight on something new she won't stop studying it until she knows everything about it.

Skillset

 * Staff Blaster Proficiency: Spalerite's weapon is a staff blaster, based on the gem destabilizer. If aimed right, one shot can poof any gems short of a normally-built quartz. It can also be used to block and perform physical attacks, but Sphalerite can't do this well due to not being combat-trained. The stabilizing blades can be hard enough to shatter a gemstone with a few blows.
