Description
Unakite's Theme:www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ5qQL…
Snail's House - Hot Milk
So, Peridot won the Poll, and she Fused with Sphalerite! I absolutely adore this Fusion - she looks so cute but silly at the same time. Her design and personality are clearly leaning more towards the Sphalerite end of the spectrum, but there is a decent amount of Peridot incorporated into the character.
Now, I know what you're thinking:
"but diln thoz colrs r 2 bright 4 unakite!!1!!"
I know, but I decided to say "Screw it" and turn her into a walking piece of candy. Her colours are extravagant and eye-catching, being a wonderful mix of orange, green, yellow and red. I really love the colour palette, and how her bushy, Floofy hair was styled. It looks messy but organised at the same time (somehow XD).
As you can tell, Unakite is based on a stereotypical modernized skateboarder, with her weapon literally being a hoverboard (ironically). This is a mix of Peridot's ferrokinesis, allowing metal objects to levitate off the ground at her will, as well as the broadness of the blades of Sphalerite's scythe, which have flattened out and curved round to form a long, rainbow-coloured hoverboard (containing the same colours as her body). She can move very quickly on her board, and can nimbly avoid enemy attacks. She also has great balance, and can travel upside down or up vertical surfaces with ease without any trouble.
As for her design, I chose the theme of a skateboarder specifically because Sphalerite is already modernized, and Peridot can already levitate on a trash can lid (as seen in "Room For Ruby"). So, to me, it only seemed logical to Fuse them into the embodiment of mischief and immaturity.
Unakite has a pretty childish nature, and always uses outdated, embarrassing "Cool Kids" lingo whenever she talks. Example:
"Yo-Yo, waddup ma homies? Dude, are we gon' have some sick fun today or what?!"
(That was painful to write ;w; )
She's still stuck in the 90s.
Now, onto her sunglasses. Since Peridot already has a visor, I decided to turn it into some COOL SHADES, just to fit the generic 90s feel. But underneath those sunglasses is...an eye? Three eyes? They're all joined together, so I can't tell if it's one eye or three...:/
Either way, I'm absolutely in love with them!

Thank you so much! I love her too! She's already one of my absolute favourites, and I've only drawn this sweet beb once. :3
Yeah, that abomination only counts as one eye (scientifically). I thought nobody would notice it.
Thank yoouuuuuu

What do you think of her freaky eye?
...Eyes?
I have no idea :'0

ElisDead In reply to DaphneSpooks [2017-05-25 01:38:44 +0000 UTC]
It's... well, freaky. I can see her just finding a random unsuspecting human, talking with them, and at some random point in the conversation she would just take off and freak the person out. Just for shits and giggles
I don't know what it is either.

DaphneSpooks In reply to ElisDead [2017-05-25 01:41:44 +0000 UTC]
Very freaky.
I can actually imagine that scenario. Though I think the human would already be startled by a green-skinned, red-haired, three-armed giantess levitating on a hoverboard XD
I need to consult an expert on this...

So really it's just adding a small but of shock onto the tons of it they already have.
Oh my-

DaphneSpooks In reply to ElisDead [2017-05-25 01:46:39 +0000 UTC]
Basically, yeah. If they hadn't already ran off screaming, that is.
I've just looked it up. Scientifically, it should classify as one eye.
Who knew a Fusion could lose body parts?

ElisDead In reply to DaphneSpooks [2017-05-25 01:49:56 +0000 UTC]
That seems like an appropriate reaction.
Never thought that would happen. But I guess stuff like that could happen to a gem that's never fused before? That's the only explanation that I've got.

DaphneSpooks In reply to ElisDead [2017-05-25 01:52:23 +0000 UTC]
They'd be in Chicago before you could say "Unakite"
That could be a nice detail to add. Gems that are inexperienced in Fusion end up losing body parts when they Fuse for the first time. Whether it be eyes, an ear, an arm, a leg - or even a head.

ElisDead In reply to DaphneSpooks [2017-05-25 01:54:05 +0000 UTC]
Either because of how terrifying she is, or from trying to escape the cringe that is her lingo.
Losing a head sounds horrible. And also really cool.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
DaphneSpooks In reply to ElisDead [2017-05-25 02:05:17 +0000 UTC]
Probably the latter XD
Also, I was seriously considering using the Kazoo Kid Trap Remix as Unakite's theme - but I'm reserving it for another time. :3
Just imagine it though: one moment you have a head, the next you're seeing the world through a set of eyes on a chest. Or, worse, on a back - so you can't even see what's in front of you.

Oh dear. I don't want to know what kind of hellish thing that's going to be assigned to.
Oh dear. That sounds like a nightmare.

You will weep with both joy and terror.
I bet the Fusion would Defuse almost immediately, just to save themselves the misery of enduring such a depressing fate.
Wow. This comment thread got pretty morbid pretty fast. :/

ElisDead In reply to DaphneSpooks [2017-05-25 02:24:28 +0000 UTC]
If you make me feel a strong enough emotion to weep, then you have officially bested me.
And then they would never fuse again out of fear of the same result happening. Leading in the unfamiliar gem to stay unfamiliar and still be terrible at it.
Yeah, this happens a lot with me.
