That's true. There are a lot of, for instance, Obsidians and other Gems that I myself have based OCs on. There are even other Black Pearls made by users on the canon wiki. But I try to make sure that mine are not too similar to other OCs with the same gemstone. If someone essentially made a carbon copy of your design (unless they truly NEVER saw nor heard of your Gemsona, then it is just coincidence) or outright stole your character, then you would have a case, OD.
