"I just want to go home."

-- A gem that's thousands of years old

-- Steven Universe (Canon)

-- Prefers to be called a "she."

-- Personality; Lapis is a gem that is pretty reserved and even a bit angsty. It takes quite a bit of time for her to even remotely like or trust anyone else, and has only developed a close bond to Steven. During this odd situation, she is especially angry now that her trip from Earth has been so rudely interrupted to be taken to some eerie place. Lapis is a bit fearful and cautious of anything and anyone that she's never seen, and is always wary of her surroundings. She is certainly not one to start fights right away, and even has a bit of initial cowardice towards something unusual. Not that she isn't capable of fighting, but she hates conflict in general after all it has done to her. Never letting her guard down, she is pretty vigilant in stressful scenarios, and can be very protective of those she's warmed up to or made allies with. Any chance for a friend is one she'll half consider taking. And when a friendship does form, she'll keep a fierce protectiveness for them. However, when one becomes her enemy, they usually stay that way. It is very hard to regain trust after it has been lost, and she can't seem to let things go.

-- History(Spoilers); Lapis was made to terraform conquered planets and make them suitable for gems. Other than simply doing her job, not much else could be said for her early life. After a war broke out, Lapis got caught in the middle of it and managed to get herself poofed, even getting her gem stepped on and cracked. Her gem has been taken and put in a mirror to be used by her fellow Homeworld gems, mistaking her as being part of the rebellion. Being stuck in there for 5,000 years, it has turned her into a socially inept and grouchy gem. However, she did manage to convince Steven to free her, and she naturally grew pretty attached to him and even made up with the Crystal Gems. When she realized that the Diamonds have their sights set on destroying the rebellion and taking Earth down with them, she grew scared that another war would break out. Lapis was distraught to learn that Steven or Peridot couldn't come with, and she simply took the barn with her to just get away from Earth. During her trip, she was interrupted and taken to this strange realm that seems very ghost-like and dangerous. This has enraged her. Fearing that this pointless abduction could lead to conflict, she is trying to remain in solitude and find a way back to her initial destination, only opening her heart to those she considers harmless.

-- Abilities; Lapis is a gem that terraforms, so she has the natural ability of Hydrokinesis, or the manipulation of water or liquids that are partially made of water. Entire lakes or oceans can be bent to her will, but it will be scaled down for the sake of this RP. Another thing I'll remove are the enemy clones she can make. The more water in an environment there is, the more she'll be able to control. Any source of water can be used as a weapon from turning it into a fist to punch, a wave to sweep her foes away, or using dew drops to shoot at them. Luckily for her, her gem naturally contains water that can be used at her disposal. She can also turn existing liquids into different forms of matter, able to evaporate water or turn it to ice.

Another thing is the ability of flight. Using the water stored in her gem, wings can be formed that allow her to fly. She also has unnatural strength and agility, along with a strange ability to adapt to different forces of gravity.

-- Other; Thank you for the opportunity and let me know if something needs changed! Res for another character. Also, if possible, could you remove Wendy from your other RP? It's going at too slow a pace for my liking. Thank you!

Sᴛᴀɴʟᴇʏ Pɪɴᴇꜱ
"When there's no cops around, anything's legal!"

-- A selfish old man somewhere in his late sixties.

-- Gravity Falls (Canon)

-- Prefers to be called "Stan."

-- Personality; The first thing you'll see in this guy is a selfish, manipulative, greedy, and overly confident conman. And yes, you're correct. Stanley is an old man pushing his seventies who is very experienced in the art of scamming and stealing, as well as just doing illegal things in general. He often does just about anything to get his way, even if he's aware it's hurting another. Grudges are a thing he can hold to his grave, and will have lots of joy seeing his enemies suffer in some way. Because he's so used to being around morons in the obscure old town, he mostly feels like he's superior to another in intelligence as well, often acting condescending to those he doesn't like. His energetic but gruff voice can come off as intimidating, and his wrinkly old glare is no exception. Despite all of his outward qualities, Stan ended up being the uncle that his niece and nephew never knew they wanted. He is surprisingly caring towards those he's grown attached to, and will go to extensive lengths just to make sure they're safe. Even if it means to break their trust. He often does the same to make them happy, even if it means breaking the law. Not that it's something he isn't used to. He also gets pretty jealous if those he likes tends to hang out with others, and is pretty protective over them as well. If you manage to break through that thick barrier around his heart, you'll find that the heart is made of gold. ..Fool's gold.

-- History (SPOILERS!); Stan lived over in the sleepy town of Gravity Falls, where he used to run a tourist trap called the Mystery Shack. He ran it for quite some time, all the while committing massive tax fraud, along with smuggling pugs across several borders. He's also done quite a bit more. His great niece and nephew came over to spend the summer with him and try to have a normal family time season. Things were fine for a while, albeit pretty odd and sometimes even dangerous. Turns out that something deeper was indeed hidden in the town, and a nearly omnipotent dream demon called Bill manipulated his way to trick Stan's niece into giving him the chance to be corporeal. After almost a week of struggling to survive under apocalyptic conditions, Stan set aside his pride for once and helped save the town, along with his world who would've suffered the same fate. Ever since then, Stanley has left Gravity Falls with his long lost twin brother to engage in the adventures they couldn't have prior. He still didn't have a complete change of heart, though. This went on for a few months before mysteriously waking up in this odd ghost town that's possessed with strange creatures. Even if he saw much weirder anomalies back at home, he still pretty confused and terribly frightened about all that happened. Last he remembered being was asleep on the boat with his brother, out at calm sea in the dead of night. So how he got here, he doesn't know. He is currently just trying to live, and to find a way back to his world.

-- Abilities; Stan is about as vulnerable as any human being. However, due to being a licensed criminal, he does have a few ways of defending himself. He does currently have brass knuckles on his person, along with a smoke bomb. The bomb is used as both a way to escape a dangerous situation, and a tactic to impress or surprise someone. His main strength in fighting is just brute force.

coran ѕмyтнe

☾ Altean ✦ Male ✦ 250+ yrs ✦ Bi ☽
Royal Adviser to King Alfor

Canon character - Voltron: Legendary Defenders
Version - pre-show era (before the war)

Hair ✦ Orange
Eyes ✦ Violet
Height ✦ 5'7
Noticeable features
--- Two triangular blueish-green markings at the top of his cheekbones
--- Pupils have a bright violet center
--- A very well-groomed and bushy mustache
--- Hair is pretty wavy and long, but is kept in a ponytail (except the stubborn curl)
Skills ✦ Mechanic, pilot, ex-military, and royal adviser


_____

Coran is a young and mischievous Altean with a habit of finding trouble during his intergalactic adventures. His best friend is King Alfor. The two Alteans grew up together, with Coran eventually becoming his Royal Adviser after spending years in the military. Alfor's recklessness was probably a bad influence for the red head, as both of them together almost always meant a disaster was upon the horizon. Coran may also outwardly appear as extremely goofy and oblivious. Do not let this fool you, however, as he does this on purpose to catch others off guard and get the upper hand. His experience on the battlefield and his quick wits make him a dangerous opponent. Even if his physical strength is not that great, his intelligence and agility make up for it.

The Altean is also very fatherly. He is fond of children and is very knowledgeable of how to take care of them. When it comes to older kids and teenagers he can be a bit more awkward, especially when they start asking him awkward questions he doesn't know how to answer.

_____


Abilities ✦ No significant abilities. Any magical abilities are currently unknown, as he has been unable to access them.
Weapon of Choice ✦ Coran prefers an Altean staff with retractable blades on each end.
Misc. Information ✦ Like all Alteans he is able to communicate in a variety of vocal cues (other than words), can move/rotate his ears quite a bit, and his facial markings glow or shimmer when flustered or angry. He's also super grumpy in the mornings.

    ;u; sweet!! I apologize in advance for any awkwardness on my part im a very awkward and lowkey shy person. Its been a long time since I've actively been in any roleplays! Fanfics are fun and all, but I miss being able to create a plot/story via roleplaying with others.

Mark!

Would it be okay if I was to play an evil/monstrous character? Specifically a Gastly from Pokemon. I thought it might fit with the ghost town title?

Also do you have a specific form?
