[darknesshermit]

Character: Nagi "Alice" Arisuin
GEM: Zircon
IDEAS: Her gem weapon is a dagger, and her only current power is shadow concealment - being able to turn invisible when in shadows.
EXTRAS: Alice does not actually trust any of you worth a heck, but she'd be willing to fuse to accomplish a task. Also I've never written fusions before, so I'm excited but also I know nothing, basically! Prefer not to share memories right now as that'll turn her off the whole experience for a long time.

Honoka & Sonico

[letsplayer]

Character: Marla
GEM: Astrophyllite
IDEAS: Marla's gem weapon is an oculus rift type visor/armor thing that she uses for both protection and to channel her other powers, and her current power set includes enemy analysis, item crafting, and exploding plushies. Make of that what you will. Any other powers I might give her in the future are prone to being extremely stupid.
EXTRAS: She's a bit shy about fusing with people she doesn't know well, but it's not outright impossible. Given her illness, fusion is also the only way she can really be an effective combatant (all her current powers are geared more towards support), but there's still likely to be some sort of construction/demolition quirk to the fusion. Any fusion is also prone to being one hell of a glass cannon. I'm open to a lot of ideas though.

[spookybloobloo]

Character: Napstablook
GEM: Sardonyx
IDEAS: Blooky's gem weapon is a chainsaw, and their powers include acid rain tears and harmless gray text right now (although I'm also considering giving them trash manipulation in the future). Top hats are a possible design motif that might make their way into the fusion, and on top of their powers Blooky's also fairly translucent and able to phase through objects, being a ghost.
EXTRAS: They're very shy and will need to be really talked into it, plus their anxieties make the fusion prone to un-fusing whenever they get a bad case of the "oh no........."'s.

[lifeisfun]

Character: Berry
GEM: Emerald
IDEAS: Berry's Gem Weapon is actually a full-body suit of armor, and none of her powers can be used to attack things.
EXTRAS: She's willing to fuse now but thanks to the Aventurine thing she wants to have a decent idea of her partner's personality, and if she has any reason to think you have self-esteem issues then the fusion isn't happening, period.

[perfectlynormalcthulhu]

Character: Anri
GEM: Coffinite
IDEAS: Anri's powerset has a 'shadow magic' theme, and her personal weapon is a transforming whip-sword.
EXTRAS: Anri now knows that fusions are a thing that can happen but she's not really sure how. Also her cool exterior is almost entirely a facade and she's actually several different kinds of crazy, so have fun with that!

Minato

[foolish_seal]

Character: Minato Arisato
GEM: Danburite
IDEAS: All of Minato's powers are based on CR he's had in past games, with an extra helping of friendship power, because reasons. Hope you like cheesy friendship motifs. Right now, he's got his Persona, Messiah, which he still has to summon his Evoker and shoot himself in the head for, and a summonable lance and wings that can reach really fast speeds.
As a special note, Minato's Persona will most likely change forms when fused to reflect the change in psyche, so fusing with him comes with a bonus i that regard.
EXTRAS: Because friendship, Minato takes to the whole fusion thing rather easily, so it won't be hard to approach him about it, even if it's just for fun.

[onaroll]

Character: Amelie Felice Amaryllis
GEM: Pink Diamond
IDEAS: Amelei's 'theme' is duplication and space-warping, and she has no idea what her gem weapon is. Any fusion she does participate in will probably be symmetrical in some way.
EXTRAS: Pink Diamond is a gemstone that represents creativity and romance, so I am completely down on throwing in some kind of heart aesthetic to any fusion she does.

Naomi, Naoto, and Adrien

[coneyislandcrazy]

Character: Amethyst
GEM: A round purple Amethyst on her chest right where cleavage would be.
IDEAS: Well she rocks a whip, so think of things with strings, Cat-o-nine tails, bow, yo-yo, flail, nets, puppets, guitars... Also she has wild hair and most of her fusions come with extra limbs or eyes.
EXTRAS: Amethyst has been feeling lonely and weak the longer her friends are gone so she wouldn't exactly rush into fusion but she could get to like it. She's a wild child so sometimes fusing with her can be hard because the fusion tends to get fired up and impulsive.

As a special treat, Enjoy all of Amethyst's canon fusions including the newest one which is a huge spoiler

Character: Harley Quinn
GEM: A red Rhodonite with black speckles shaped like a diamond on her lower back Trampstamp
IDEAS: Harley's main weapon is her mallet of course but she also comes with glitter bombs and ribbons. So she can be used for all manner of over the top weapons and gear. Of course if Harley's trying to keep control the fusion will be more wild and impulsive and violent, but if Harleen Quinzel takes the wheel she'll be more methodical and wicked. Both have very big hearts so the fusion is likely to have some compassion too but it'll have to depend on who fuses with her if they are able to overcome her insanity.

EXTRAS: Enjoy a video of the TV show skit that inspired Harley Quinn weirdly enough, starring the actress who would later voice Harley Quinn.

Also enjoy this belly dance video with a girl in a sort of Harley style

And here's a comic where Harley was assimilated by a living planet. I assume it was a little like fusion gone wrong 

[theluckycharm]

Character: Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug
GEM: Rhondite
IDEAS: While she hasn't unlocked it yet, Marinette's weapon is a yoyo and her power is to change her outfits at will.
EXTRAS: Shes pretty iffy on Fusion, if only because she's new and doesn't fully understand it yet. But the thought of someone potentially being able to see her memories and most importantly learn of her superhero identity is one that worries her immensely. But if a Fusion si necessary to save anyone, shell do ti in a heartbeat.

[nailed_it]

Character: Yang Xiao Long
GEM: Fire Agate, heart-cut, lower heart chakra (usually hidden under her clothing)
IDEAS: Hair for days? Also FIRE.

Being serious though, most of Yang's fusions tend to have lengthy hair in some way, although whether it stays as vibrantly blonde as her own usually depends on who she's fusing with and what color the fusion's gem is.

One thing I do like to keep consistent with Yang's fusions is that they are asymmetrical in some way. This can be in number of limbs, eyes, or even just something as subtle as the fusion's hair style or attire. Her fusions tend to be "beautiful" if in sometimes unconventional means, but that's not a hard and fast rule.

Yang also has draconic imagery associated with her if that's something you'd want to explore, which can come through in her fusions either in the form of fire or dragon-like attributes. Her gem weapons are her canon dual-ranged shot-gauntlets (Ember Celica) if you want to use them to inspire the fusion's gem weapon.

...Basically just toss ideas at me, I am open to most anything.

EXTRAS: Yang is a very easy person to fuse with provided it's something she wants to do at the time. She will never unintentionally fuse with someone, even when dancing. It is always by her own conscious decision in some way. She can sync with most people on some level fairly quickly since she is naturally pretty go-with-the-flow. She's a very good fusion partner for characters concerned about "losing themselves" to a fusion because Yang, above all, prefers herself as herself and this will carry over into the mentality she brings to the resulting fusion. Fusion, to her, is a combat strategy and/or a way to goof off with someone for a bit, and she's assertive enough in her thoughts that she'll un-sync once a fusion has completed, or is no longer needed for, its original specific purpose.

Also of note! Because her mindset is generally based in the present, any memory bleed-over during a fusion is extremely unlikely barring exceptional circumstances (like, for example, when she and Pyrrha formed Bronzite and a memory exchange was suddenly triggered by the gem of the monster they were fighting). So, Yang's not going to go rooting around in other people's heads, even subconsciously, and she's practiced enough with fusion that if she feels something going wrong or her own thoughts being compromised in some way she'll de-fuse immediately. This means, I'm going to be kinda picky about any fusion memory exchanges since they'll need a good IC explanation for why they happened in the first place. I am open to them, but I'd prefer they be few and far between for now.

And with all that tl;dr out of the way, hit me with fusion ideas! 8D

[scarlet_devil]

Character: Remilia Scarlet
GEM: Bloodstone
IDEAS: Remi's weapon is her spear, perhaps something polearm related?
EXTRAS: Remilia doesn't want to share memories unless its with Patchouli and perhaps Cirno, but she'd be happy to fuse with just about anyone. She's a proud, confident woman... with a reawakening sense of justice.

REIRA

[soft_focus]

Character: Reira Akaba
GEM: Blue Chalcedony
IDEAS: Reira's current powerset is heavily based in copying and negating other things-more specifically though, aside from the ability to create limited numbers of clones this way, his weapon mimics other weapons...so it's something to keep in mind!
EXTRAS: Reira's never fused before, so if he ever does, it'll be an interesting feat! He's not used to fusing with another consciousness.

That aside, he can also fuse with the clones he creates! So here's your chance to influence those designs too!

[frozenmemories]

Character: Cirno Knight
GEM: Larimar
IDEAS: Something Ice related on the fusion but that's mostly for comfort.
EXTRAS: Cirno's nervous about fusing as her memories are not going to be the best to be honest. But she's willing!
