[attr="class","appbold"]HISTORY:
- Libra's character flaws were assets in his hometown of Los Angeles. As the middle child he was already subject to getting less attention than his older brother and younger sister without the need to add his manic-depressive mother into the mix. She was a reality TV star who managed to balance just enough drama to keep her series going while portraying herself as a regular "it" girl mom. She saved her moods for the family. His father filed for divorce when he was ten but the courts denied him custody. His mother just kept getting worse. Her show was cancelled and she started lashing out at her children unexpectedly. She would be baking cookies and going to parent-teacher interviews one month and the next there would be broken vases and red handprints on his face. Getting close to her was impossible and his siblings were never around. Still, he came from money and that made things better.
He discovered his powers when he was in kindergarten and has kept it a secret ever since. He trusted nobody, not even his family members. But he liked the idea of being special. Libra was a late bloomer, only really coming into his playboy image in his senior year after he dyed his naturally blonde hair bright blue. He decided on his own to come to VU to take the next step in mastering himself and his powers.

[attr="class","appbold"]POWERS:
- DIAMOND SKIN: Libra's main claim is his ability to create a diamond-like skin over his body, rendering him nearly impervious to wounds. In exchange he loses some mobility and fine motor skills and acquires a weakness to sound-based attacks which can cause his armor to crack. His body becomes highly reflective due to the facets of the skin as well, meaning he can potentially deflect light to blind his attackers. In diamond form he is able to withstand quite a few blunt impacts, with sharp weapons merely bouncing off of him. He can withstand a limited amount of gunfire but is vulnerable to laser-type attacks. The diamond also possesses anti-telekinetic shielding which can block low-level powers. The diamond has no nerve endings as an external layer, meaning that it does not perceive pain and can shield him from temperature change. But his skin is only armor. It doesn't grant him any additional strength and is generally only useful for defense. It saps his energy to stay in diamond form and to regenerate any dents in the armor. Currently his maximum is thirty minutes over his entire body while idle. In a fight the number only gets smaller. In order to maximize his time he can choose to coat only parts of his body.
- CRYSTAL MANIPULATION: He recently discovered his ability to shape crystals of all kinds. Furthermore, he has the ability to spawn small quantities of diamonds out of ordinary rocks. The constructs don't last forever, though, they tend to dissolve back into pure carbon after about ten minutes. He is able to shape the matter with strenuous effort but only when he is in direct contact with the material. He currently cannot levitate the crystals either. The best use Libra has found for this ability is coating other objects with diamond edges in order to sharpen them. Other than that it's a pretty party trick, like giving somebody a diamond encrusted rose. With practice he may one day be able to form crystals at will or out of his diamond body and use them as weapons, projectile or otherwise.
