Personality
General Personality: Star has a sparking personality that grinds on others` and is someone who cannot hold their attention on one thing for an extended period of time. She is highly combative, and will easily be persuaded to fight and compete. Her personality grates on many people like fingernails on a chalkboard, which is surprising since Star is actually not overly annoying in the typical sense. She usually keeps to herself because she has high standards for other people and is constantly arguing that -fill in the blank- can do better or whatnot. She is honestly a good friend, even though she is very flighty and can get on your nerves. Some people say that she bounces around a lot, but honestly, she thinks too fast for her body to keep up with what she wants it to do.
In battle, surprisingly enough, Star isn't the type to simply charge out and attack head on. Unlike her personality suggests and most people would assume, Star actually plays more of a support role in fights. Her magical abilities are highly suited to supporting. Her shields aren`t very strong at the moment, since she`s only a D Rank, but they could have other uses besides simply defence. And although she doesn`t wish to use her ruby very often, because it has a high magical cost (Yes, I`ll specify all of this and clear it up and edit it in magical registration), she`ll use it if need be. Star finds it hard to project her shields far away from her, which is a definite problem since she doesn`t wish to be in the center of a battle. Star is NOT a coward or lazy, no matter how much she appears to be so at first glance. She tries her genuine best at everything, and would easily be persuaded to do the 'charge at the enemy' thing. Star wants whatever is best for her team, and she is not afraid to voice her opinions about these things. Many people may call her silly, but she strongly believes in doing the right thing, aka justice.
If someone forced Star to lead, likely she would be unhappy with it or them. Even though she is assertive and combative, Star prefers to be told what to do. Then, after someone else has made the decision, she`ll go and object to it and insult the person. This makes Star seem lazy, but she honestly just wants people to do it themselves, but to the best of their ability. Whether or not this is simply her trying to justify doing this is another thing though xD. Finding this "best of their ability" is where she tries to change all of whatever they`re doing. Leadership and charisma are things that are low on Star`s ability scale / radar, so she has to make an effort to convince people to see things her way. Since Star is very much a "free spirit" type of person, she doesn`t have the care to do things like this. However, if she truly wants to, she will put all her effort into it.
Likes:
Like 1 - Jewelry : Ok, this one might be obvious. But besides sapphire gems, Star likes other jewelry. In her room at home, she has a chest full of jewelry that definitely has nothing to do with her powers, and she cannot use in magic.
Like 2 - Music : Star has a thing for music, but she is truly terrible. She knows how to play the flute, (she even did something to hers so that now it`s blue), and the piano, but she truly is incompetent at it, despite having played for 6 years.
Like 3 - Being inside : Star is definitely NOT an outdoors person. Sometimes she wonders whether it`s because of her magic, because it comes from the ground, but has decided that it`s just the fact that she likes to test her magic a lot. This results in a lot of bad things happening, but that`s ok for her. Did I mention that she gets hurt alot...?
Dislikes:
Dislike 1 - Dirty places : Star hates getting dirty. Maybe this has to do with her like of being indoors, because she absolutely cannot stand it when people have dirt on themselves from playing outside. And dust is just... gross... to Star.
Dislike 2 - Pants : Ok, this one might seem a little weird. But since Star likes to layer her clothes, pants are a terrible thing to her. It`s uncomfortable to put anything under pants, and putting a skirt over pants looks just unfashionable and doesn`t suit her jewelry well. So she hates pants and might hold a grudge against people that tell her she has to wear them for -fill in the blank- .
Dislike 3 - Teleportation : In her opinion, people who use teleportation devices are just being lazy or showing off, particularly if they`re not bringing other people with them. Despite the fact that it gets you out of a tricky situation quickly, Star fails to see the point in it and dislikes this method of getting places.
Dislike 4 - People who think rubies aren`t sapphires : This is one of Star`s absolute pet peeves. Rubies are sapphires, and people who think they aren`t or that they are better are just plain wrong to Star. Sure, they`re different colors, but there`s honestly no difference to Star besides the fact that they`re darker than pink-purple sapphires. She gets really annoyed when people tell her that her name isn`t the same as Star Sapphire, because rubies ARE sapphires!
Motivations:
Motivation 1 - To find and possess the most beautiful sapphire in the world : This one is quite simple. Star wants to obtain the sapphire of her dreams, which would have perfect clarity, perfect cuts, and just in general, beauty. It certainly might sound silly, but she literally is swooning at the thought of a sapphire as this.
Motivation 2 - Similar to her first motivation, Star wants to fill all the spaces on her Sapphire Stones charm bracelet. Because of this, Star intends to travel the world until she finds the perfect gemstones.
Motivation 3 - No matter how cliched it is : Star is searching for, in effect, perfection. She has the highest standards for people, and for anything else as well. Star believes that perfection does exist, and intends to find something that perpetuates her theory and proves that she is not wrong in this.
Fears:
Fear 1 - Heights : Star is deathly afraid of being up in high places. It`s not so much the fear of falling, but literally the fear of how high she is in the sky / place / whatever. Cliffs, precipices, etc. are all bad places for Star to be.
Fear 2 - That her gems will break : Natural sapphire gemstones are not as hard as diamond, even though they are made of corundum. Star`s gemstones are almost as diamond, and harder than ordinary gemstones, but she still fears that they will crack, shatter, or break and fail her sometime in the future.
Fear 3 - Fire : This goes beyond a dislike for Star, which is why I`m listing it here. She hates and fears fire, and no matter how hard her gemstones are, no matter how durable they are, fire can still melt them. And anyway, fire burns things, often uncontrollably, and that`s just scary. Because of this fear of fire, Star also has an aversion to mages that are either fire elemental or use fire as a primary part of their magic.
General Appearance
Height: About 5' 1", so she`s kind of petite
Weight: Star herself isn`t really sure and assumes it`s around 46 kilograms
Hair: Star`s hair is very plain in first appearance, and not very striking. It`s a maroon-ish brown, but sometimes looks very muddy brown with a gray-green tint. ((In the picture, it`s dark))
Eyes: Star has rather narrow eyes that are, of course, a dark sapphire blue-violet, as the contacts over them reflect her magic. Without her contacts, her eyes are a golden brown.
Skin Tone: Very light, and pale. Sometimes may appear to be porcelain or chalk-like. (In my avi it looks paler than it should be)
Appearance: At first glance, someone might believe her to be something like Japanese, before they see her eyes. Anyway, Star has an attraction to white clothes, and she is most often seen wearing that colour. If not, then she`ll be wearing either gray or black. After that, her third choice of a colour scheme would be brown and blue, but she is extremely picky when it comes to shades of blue.
In general, Star is someone that is easy to describe by others because she stands out. She doesn`t have any particularly striking features at first glance, since it`s hard to make out the streaks in her hair, and she averts her sapphire eyes, but her clothes capture attention naturally. Star is usually seen wearing clothes that are conservative in their design, but not in their colours. Even though many of them are neutral shades of white, grey, and black, their appearance is bold. Her hair is usually loose or in a ponytail, but she is also usually wearing a barrette-type headpiece that is white with a cornflower sapphire embroidered ribbon across the wide part.
After that, her jewelry/accessories. Of course, Star has her magic, which utilises these. She received 4 things from her mother that she uses for her main magic :
Piece 1- Her star sapphire ring
Piece 2- Her star sapphire pendant w/ black silk cord
Piece 3- Her sapphire-jeweled contacts
Piece 4- Her Sapphire Stones charm bracelet
I think I`m supposed to explain these in Magic Registration or whatnot, so I`ll specify that there. Anyway, though, Star can be seen wearing all of these almost always. If not, then she`ll have the fourth and first in a pocket or bag. Star is constantly and always wearing her star sapphire pendant and contacts.
