Personality[]
Ruby and Ice clash on a lot of things. It's friendly but it can get a bit out of hand, and being Cinnabar isn't that fun for Ice; Cinnabar can be overly aggressive and a bit too extreme.[4] Cinnabar has a superiority complex when it comes to battle, she believes herself to be unbeatable, despite being an unstable fusion.[5]
Now, Cinnabar is more stable, but she's still a tad unstable.[6]
Abilities[]
Cinnabar possesses standard Gem abilities, bubbling, shapeshifting, fusion, regeneration, agelessness, and superhuman strength/durability.
As Ice likes Amethyst, and Opal even more so, and it is unsure how Ruby feels about Amethyst, but she doesn’t really get along with Pearl or she tolerates her, Cinnabar likes Opal. Opal and Cinnabar are both pretty unstable as it is, Scheelite, their fusion, is no exception to this but they are able to manage.[9]
Trivia[]
When asked who would win in a fight between Cinnabar and Jasper, GemCrust answered that Cinnabar would.[5]
When asked would win in a fight between Kämmererite and Cinnabar, GemCrust answered Kämmererite, given that Cinnabar isn't good at using Ice's cryokinesis and Kämmererite is generally stronger and has a proper weapon.[7]
Cinnabar and cinnabarite, likely deriving from the Ancient Greek: κιννάβαρι (kinnabari), which refer to the common bright scarlet to brick-red form of mercury(II) sulfide, formula HgS.
It's the most common source ore for refining elemental mercury and is the historical source for the brilliant red or scarlet pigment termed vermilion and associated red mercury pigments.
Cinnabar generally occurs as a vein-filling mineral associated with recent volcanic activity and alkaline hot springs.
The mineral resembles quartz in symmetry and in its exhibiting birefringence; cinnabar has a mean refractive index of ~3.2, a hardness between 2 and 2.5, and a specific gravity of ~8.1.
The color and properties derive from a structure that is a rhombohedral crystalline lattice belonging to the hexagonal crystal system, crystals that sometimes exhibit twinning.
Cinnabar is generally found in a massive, granular or earthy form and is bright scarlet to brick-red in color, though it occasionally occurs in crystals with a non-metallic adamantine luster.
