Gemstone: Hawk's Eye
Nickname: Hawk
Gem Location: Right eye (from her point of view)
Appearance: Finally drew her..Outfit isn't finalized yet though. Middle one is my favorite, but left makes more sense if she's working for Blue Diamond.
Personality: Hawk's Eye is a stoic, combat-oriented gem. To her, orders are absolute; however, she is a strategist and can detect questionable decisions made by her superior. A gem of little to no words, she can come off as aloof or even disrespectful but mainly chooses silence because of her tendency to be blunt.
((I've noticed a lot of the Homeworld gems exhibit personalities opposite of the supposed meanings of those gems. Example: Lapis is a gem that helps with dealing with abuse. Peridot is a gem of friendliness. Jasper is a stone of stability/nurturing/healing.))
Passage from site linked below: "Hawk's Eye is conceived to be helpful in the astral travel and taking up the spiritual challenges. Meditating with this alluring gem nugget aid in understanding the real concept of the life as well as help to accept the changes. It too helps the spirit to grow strong to take the situation as it is and work accordingly. Further, it restricts the soul to fight against the unwelcoming circumstances as it proffers the vision to see the new phase of life with a positive attitude."

That being said..outside of combat, adjusting to new predicaments will paralyze her. She's used to the stringent chain of command created by Blue Diamond. One of her favorite pastimes is observing. At times, she can be seen staring at what most would classify as "nothing."
Alignment: Blue Diamond
Abilities:
-Incredible Accuracy: (Don't expect her to miss. Of course, that depends on the target though. I won't be godmodding/autohitting.)
-Elemental Arrows: (Explained below with Weapon)
-Stealth: Can mask her presence to all senses unless she initiates an interaction (speaking/attacking) with someone else or unless she's careless enough to let someone accidentally make contact with her.
-Prowess in the Air: She can jump farther and higher than the average gem and seemingly glide for brief moments (like a hawk).
Weapon: Her main weapon is the Crossbow. (Similar to Opal's bow, she needs to make the motion of drawing the string taut to fire the projectile but does not have to worry about running out of ammunition.)
Quote from the site linked below: "Hawk's Eye holds the propensity to assist the soul to envisage the spiritual and material goals and turn them into reality."

In addition to regular projectiles, she can utilize different elemental versions (e.g. fire, water, electricity, metals); however, incredible focus is required to different elements in succession. (And if a gem can control that element, this move can be rendered ineffective. Ex: Lapis. Need I say more?)

In melees, Hawk will still use her crossbow. Her physique was not made for close combat, so when given the opportunity, she would rather escape to snipe again rather than remain face-to-face with the enemy.

(Optional)
Bio/History: Originally, Hawk's Eye aided in securing other colonies for Blue Diamond, but as a result of the rebellion on Earth, she became one of many gems sent to cull the rebellion on Earth. After the unprecedented destruction of Pink Diamond, she remained in the Moon base because of unfinished orders from her Diamond. As such, she was kept safe from the corrupting light that later ended the Rebellion. A thousand years later, having completed one of her orders, she maneuvered her ship to Earth.
Mission: Ensure at least one communication device with the Diamonds remains. Delete important files.
Mission 2:--


Dance Style: Waltz, Foxtrot (Hawk prefers taking lead but will take the follow role for those she respects or cares deeply about.)
Theme Song: Waltz by Georgy Sviridov
Extra: Using this site to base abilities/skills...with a mixture of creativity
Side note: Fun quiz on the front page of the guild. Got Tanzanite.

FYI, this is my first OC. Any suggestions are appreciated. mrgreen

I want to stay far away from godmodding, so I've been making sure there are limitations to any abilities I add.

This is a hella late response, sorry! Please make sure to quote me so this doesn't happen.

Overall, I think you've put a lot of thought into Hawk. You've set her up to have struggles due to losing her chain of command, did research on her actual gem, etc.

Since Hawk is really proficient with a bow and also close combat, and can also glide/jump well, I think the stealth is a bit op. At the same time, she would make for an amazing sniper. Maybe make her less of a close quarters combat gem?

No worries, and will do!

Alright, pure sniper then. xD

For melees, while the crossbow can still be used, close combat is preferred. Her proficiency in close combat cannot match up to her skills with the crossbow, but she is still well-practiced in the arts, particularly forms similar to judo and taekwondo.
