Crystal Equal
"Broken crystal can still be sharp as knives"
Claire Coal was always an...interesting child. Born into the Royal Family of the kingdom of Dagraha, she was expected to be the picture of poise, and the essence of beauty. And for a time, she truely was. She was the perfect little princess...save for one fatal flaw. Not long after her birth, it was discovered that this girl had an extraordinary power. She could turn anything that her fingers touched into clear crystal. Unfortunatly...this was discovered when her father, the King, held her...and was soon turned to a crystal statue himself.
You see, much like King Midas, Claire has no control over this power. The only thing it seems to leave be are clothes, and even then they must be made from a very special thread. Her mother had gloves made for the girl, with the fingers covered by Metal coverings, with the special thread lining the insides of these coverings. This gave the girl the appearence of having claws. Her mother enjoyed that, and often told the girl that she was nothing but a monster. "Look at you, you wretched little monster. YOU are suppsed to be a princess! A future ruler of this kingdom! But look at those claws of yours, who would ever be king with some....THING like you!"
This was life for Claire. Blamed for her fathers death and berated by her mother constantly, everything reached it's peak on her 18th birthday. This is the day when she was finally fed up with it all. When she finally fought back. She threw off those gloves and screamed at her mother, unaware that everything she was touching, the doors, the tables, the walls, were turning to crystal...and unaware that as she moved, the crystal seemed to flow, to follow after her, forming into blades and knives...but then she was grabbed by a gaurd, one who had been kind to her for most of her life, on her mothers orders. Out of instinct she moved to push him away...and was shocked to see the crystal statue he had been turned into shatter when it hit the floor.
Her mother banished her that day. Sent her away, exiled her from the kingdom. But Claire would never forgive her. The gaurds death, it was all HER fault. That wretched woman who calls herself a queen. She provoked her, pushed her until she burst. And Claire would have her revenge. Her heart tainted black by its desire for revenge, Claire set out into the outside world...
In addition ot all of this, adding to her desire for rebenge, is her desire to reclaim what she believes to be rightfully hers. The throne. Not only as a Royal....but as an Equal. You see, Claire abilities don't come from thin air. Early on in her life, she realized she's what's known as an Equal, a being created by a god to be equal with them. Claire was made by a Crystal God, and thus can manipulte any crystal that she herself creates.
