Stishovite (WIP)

Bio

The volcanic island's official farmer and a nearly universally beloved fellow. Stishovite is friendly and cheerful wherever they go and whoever they talk to, and they love to help out. They're kind of naive and oblivious when it comes to reading the situation, a trait which isn't particularly helpful considering they live on an island where everyone quietly has beef with at least half of the population. They know that at one point they were a normal quartz, but after suffering a meteor strike they've lost all their memories from back then. They don't like being compared to the person they used to be, because they really wish they could remember. They've been to the moon a few times, and they like it there too. Lichen grows on them all the time for some reason.

Appearance

Stishovite is taller and lankier than the others, standing at about 5'8. Their body is a mix of grey, white, green and black material. On earth, they only put white powder on their face. On the moon, they powder their whole body. Their hairstyle is short and with a couple of mixed textures in it. Their outfit is black with green accents.

Composition

Stishov is made of a convoluted mix of a bunch of glassy and quartzy materials, with actual stishovite being a very small component of their body. They're mostly obsidian, moldavite, lechatelierite, coesite and moissanite.

Background

Stishovite was born a normal clear quartz on the volcanic island. They don't remember this, but they lived alongside the other first inhabitants back when the island was young, and helped build the first settlement there. One fateful day they were struck by a meteor, and lost all of their memories.

Notes: Stishovite was the first HnK character I made. They were originally an opalite, and then I reworked that concept to them being an accident-prone quartz who'd had opalite replacements, and then I ditched the opalite concept all together and just made them a shocked quartz. Their main moon outfit was designed by artfight user Shypsh.
