Continuing on the topic of Gems, their life source is located inside their bodies. In example, Topaz's gemstone is pretty small and rhombus-shaped, placed directly inside her head (no, they don't have organsand she doesn't have a brain O_O) and a little yellow patch of skin in the shape of a diamond shows on her forehead. In Sapphire's case, his gem is circular and he lacks one eye because the blue skin area is located where his left eye should be XD he just uses hair to cover it up.

Btw, their hair is supposed to be really shiny and lustrous. Of course I have no idea of how to draw that but you get the idea XDDDDD

They all have a color scheme similar to the one their gem has. Iolite's colors are lilac and shades of purple. Hair and ear color are matching. They don't have human ears. Their skin will vaguely resemble human colors: Topaz's "skin" has a yellowsih tinge to it and is very pale, whil the others' is just super pale and their blush is the color of their gem. I.E., Sapphire blushes blue.

Gems don't have blodily fluids like blood; their tears/blood are similar to Bixbite's, but they create crystals of their own gem. In the same sense, it's hard to break directly through on of them, the closest to low damage would be a nick or sharp cut, but that doesn't deal enough damage to their bodies. A shattering by diret impact can be healed eventully depending on how hard it was; if few shards were dispersed, then it just takes time to heal by "bleeding". If the damage was too much, their physical form powders into crystal dust and their gem is left exposed. Regeneratin time varies depending on the damage. The only sure-fire way to kill a Gem would be by completely destroying their life source, becuase if this is nicked or something like that while exposed it'd just let the Gem reform back with some missing "skin" parts.

I say that ^ because their bodies are solid gem that feels soft to the touch, almost like human skin and flesh (except Iolite. His body is just pure gem.).

In general, they have superhuman strength and speed, and apparently unlimited stamina. OIkay no, they do get tired, but their resistance is a lot more than regular humans, even trained ones.
