Dreslin Got a question for you science gurus. Can water in mid-air turn into diamonds, somehow? Within a few seconds, by the way. -edited- Nope. H2O is not equal to C.

Diamonds are made out of carbon.
Water... doesn't have Carbon. So... hell no. Unless he took a breath, and breathed, then multiplied it.

Even if it was physically possible to turn water into carbon, you'd need tons of pressure to do so...

Turning water into diamonds?
Unless he meant diamond-shaped ice...
But definitely not diamonds without some serious "Jesus Juice."™

I_Am_GK Even if it was physically possible to turn water into carbon, you'd need tons of pressure to do so... I don't believe it is physically possible to ever make one element out of entirely different elements. Like, you can't turn Hydrogen into Carbon. Carbon has to be introduced somewhere, either in another compound or element, and the resulting reaction could have a product that dumps the Carbon off.

Don't be a fool, son! Allow it to occur - then GRAB THE DIAMONDS! IC, ******** the tournament! You're rich!
domokun
And aye, Caelorum, ye be correct. For example: one of my abilities would, if used on water, remove the oxygen element of it completely for a round-about reason. What does that leave? Hydrogen to the 2nd. Or, as it's more commonly known..
Hydrogen gas.
However, I couldn't go "..k, so liek, the oxygen gone. NOW IT'S A RUBY! lol [grabs]". That makes utterly, no sense. O_o;

domokun There's still a problem, because any diamond or jewelry man would see through the counterfeit odd water diamonds. It just wouldn't have that same little tinkle™.

Reason for question: Xushin Rex's wids would swirl and become particals of water dotted around the man as Rex was slightly interuppted by the mans breath. He would try to ignore it as he would make the water particals into needles of ice. He would further minipulate them into diamonds as diamons were the strongest mineral. He pointed his index finger at the man and smirked as the needles would shott off at the man a half second after one another. "Dance of 1000 needles."

Yes, but would a travelling merchant be as savy? Probably not.
And DAMN. Dreslin, I pity you if you're the person fighting Xushin. XD

Truly one can produce elements from others. With lighter elements it is done through the act of fusion, with dense elements fision. It's just a matter of getting the right amounts of heat and pressure before ramming the atoms together at high speeds.

He pointed his index finger at the man and smirked as the needles would shott off at the man a half second after one another. "Dance of 1000 needles." Yeah, that's a horribly malformed post for a number of reasons, not just the diamonds.
If he meant he turned the ice needles into diamond-shaped ice, it would not retain the strength of a diamond. Even then, why does he really need something as strong as diamond? I would think a needle would work just fine, especially if applied to pressure or vital points.
Then, he seemingly bypassed it anyway by calling the attack "ice needles" after he supposedly made diamonds. Even the last few lines say "as the needles would shott off..." Not to mention the bad grammar and context at all. I guess you don't need to be a grammar nazi in a fighting RP tournament, but for the sake of clarity a post should be generally clean.

Xiushu: i got water lol [forms it into ice needles.] lol ["Minipulates" them into diamond needles.] LOL!
No explanation involved.

It's just a matter of getting the right amounts of heat and pressure before ramming the atoms together at high speeds. Ah, that's right. But isn't it a very exhaustive process? And are you sure it wasn't simply to create the man-made elements? Could, you for example, take literally any few elements and make the desire element through the process of fusion and the right temperature/pressure? Like, Hyrdogen and Oxygen to make Carbon?
Even if so, it won't help this guy's post. As far as I know, fusion takes a hell of a lot of energy. To apply enough to make a bunch of diamonds from water on the spot... ha... Best explanation is Jesus Juice™, and I don't think the poster has any.

gonk
I just remembered that I built Trei so that he had to fight to gain like, 95% of his levels...
Training is useless for the tiers.
