your name lists always save our butts when someone’s gender shifts or we need to grow our hoards , lol !! that said, i need some names that feel bright blue, punk/emo rockstar ish, and aquatic if that makes any sense! thank you so much!
sorry for the small wait anon! I will try my best to answer your amazing request!!
Another look at the three new faces from the previous pic! They may only be memories to Dal now, but they're memories that he keeps close to his heart.
Fun fact: Everyone in Dal's tribe had their names come from gems. Would've had each gem connect via what they symbolize, but it was hard to get any concrete meanings when multiple sites would say different things about the same gem. So I decided, "screw it, go random."
Tanzi: (Name comes from tanzanite.) The older of Dal's charges. A shy yet curious sort, Tanzi loved exploring the caverns with her Warden. She especially loved lessons revolving around gems and their uses, and would collect different ones so she could practice making jewelry. Coming from a whole family of jewelers, it was clear that Tanzi would've had a head start on her future once she was of apprentice age.
Whenever she wandered the lower levels of the tribe's home, Tanzi would often sense something... "off" about the area, but no one ever saw her concerns worth investigating. Except her Warden, that is...
Ama: (Name comes from amazonite.) The younger of Dal's charges. Reckless and confident, Ama's dream from the get-go was to become an Ascendant and see the world above, and she spent every day trying to find ways to make that happen. Often to disastrous effects; proving how fast she could run led to her crashing into people/fragile objects, she'd nearly set off a few traps that could've seriously hurt her, and Dal himself had his own share of injuries when trying to keep her out of harm's way. Him being gentle yet firm was what made him the only Warden capable of keeping her in check, as others would loudly scold her, which both scared and made her all the more determined to prove herself, just so they'd stop yelling all the time.
Her motivation took a hard hit after her Warden was sealed inside a crystal; that's only for the bad guys, and her Warden was never bad!! So why'd the grown-ups take him away...?
Lazule: (Name comes from lapis lazuli.) A friend of Dal's since childhood, Lazule was an Ascendant; a tribe member that was granted access to the surface world after proving he was capable of handling the dangers that waited up above. His role was mainly to gather various herbs, fruits, and any other plants when requested. He did this happily, often coming back with more than what was asked of him because he wanted to spoil the puggles. And maybe get a flower or two for Dal, since seeing the latter left him more and more tongue-tied as they both got older...
While Tanzi and Ama are at peace in the afterlife, Lazule's spirit remained dormant in the caves, watching over the crystal Dal was imprisoned in, the Protector Pearl, and the ruins they both once called home. It isn't until Team Sonic arrives and frees Dal that Lazule finally passes on, knowing that both his dearest friend and the tribe's beloved Protector Pearl were left in good hands.
The new world Dalex had ascended to was completely different from what Lazule had always seen... but Dal would be fine. And someday, when Dal's time truly comes, he can tell Lazule all about it.
Until then, Lazule, Tanzi, Ama, and many others are more than content to wait.
One of the many ways the Egyptians honored their gods was by crafting sculptures of them. This tiny 2-inch-tall lapis lazuli example shows size didn’t always matter.
So...every time I make a new fan-made story, I run the characters through the Hunger Games simulator...and even though it tortures my very soul every single time I go through this...I will do it for you. Let’s start the pain!
ROUND 1: BEGIN!!!
Axel has his priorities straight, I see.
Dude, you’re on the same team!
...welp.
That’s how season 2 really ended! But seriously, how tf did these two take down TWO admins?!
GEEZ, IVOR!!! WTF?!
SERIOUSLY?!?!
wHY?!?!?!
Round 2: ...I regret this already...
Strangely wholesome...which usually means crap’s gonna hit the fan HARD.
Told you.
So it takes a sadistic competition for these two to actually work together, eh?
ROUND 3: BEGIN!!!
Ellie, what the Nether?!?!?!
I mean...Rosa’s pretty crafty with plants, so I wouldn’t put it past her.
This is what you get for being a jerk earlier.
ROUND 4: BEGIN!!!
Okay...seriously out of character for these three. Usually singing is Soren’s thing...until someone dECAPITATED HIM!!!
Such a heroic death...
ROUND 5: BEGIN!!!
I imagine Lapis doesn’t drink it and just uses her powers to make funny shapes with it.
That...that’s incredibly ironic...
Okay, while I understand that Maya wouldn’t kill Rosa (since they’re both Ocelots/Blaze Rods), but WTF, NURM?!?!
ROUND 6: BEGIN!!!
I’m surprised it took Magnus this long to kill someone...
I TAKE BACK WHAT I SAID ABOUT MAYA!!!
ROUND 7: THIS IS TORTURE!!!
WTF, WHY IS XARA SO SAVAGE?!?!
ROUND 8: We have the resident-go-getter, the griefer king, a water Gem, an insane former admin, and a member of the Blaze Rods. Who’s gonna win?!
Xara actually protecting someone for a change. This will last all but a second.
Also, WTF MAGNUS?!?!
ROUND 9: BEGIN!!!
Aaaand there goes Maya...
...huh...honestly didn’t expect one of my characters to win...
Welp! Crap happens! See you never, because I’m not doing this torture again!
No one grows old by living, only by losing interest in living.

So true and I sure hope I never do. ❤
I haven't got a name for this absolutely cutest lapis lazul toothless dragon yet. Quite mischevious little thing, don't you think. Why do I have a feeling my spirit guide is behind this? 😉

A few quick fusion doodles! Malachite + Lightning Opal was requested by anon and Lapis + Over Cooked Ruby was requested by @kiiimono. I know I have gotten some other fusion requests too but free time is getting limited again, some of the fusion requests I couldn’t really think of an interesting design idea for, and I want to focus on some other stuff too (gemsona stuff plus another project of mine and other art in general). Kinda wish I did full body on these but I hope these work!
