More gemformers! Chromedone/Yellow Chalcedony and Rewind/Hematite.
Chromedome was originally going to be Citrine. But after I decided on him having actual ears and a hide-able toothy mouth and no other facial features, it dawned on me that he looked a lot like my gemsona Chalcedony. I thought, hey - why not have him be a variation of chalcedony too? The word also matches pretty well with his actual Transformers handle. So Yellow Chalcedony he is. The visor seems to be part of his actual face, so chances are there aren’t any eyes under there.
Yellow Chalcedony has the ability to read gem minds - as long as he has his “weapon”, a set of claw-like finger extensions, embedded in a gem’s projected body. The closer to the gem on the body, the better his readings. But reading is taxing. Especially on poofed gems or gem shards, done with a different setting on his claws. He can also modify gem memories, but that can be even worse for him than simple reading. He used to read gems back when he was more involved with some questionable forces during the war, and it drove him to a point where he was ready to put himself in a situation where his gem would be smashed. He met Hematite, though, and things changed.
Hematite has an ability extremely similar to both Lapis and Pearl as far as being able to project/show precisely events that happened in the past. He lacks a weapon, instead generating a small camera-like head piece that aids in his projecting - with his gem on his back, it’s not located in the best place to directly project from. With the device, he can project into a set spot. Otherwise, his retellings of the past are conjured up around him and whoever he is showing so that it’s almost like they are there. He is constantly collecting information for his own internal archives, gem history and otherwise.
Hematite does have eyes under his visor, but because it never comes off, nobody’s ever seen them. except Yellow Chalcedony maybe He also wears a mask, and that does come off sometimes.
The two are tethers, which is a concept that @mixterglacia came up with that is essentially gem’s equivalent of marriage.
