Amethyst Violetta (DOTS: DR Character)

Amethyst (shortened to "Ame") is a character in DOTS: DR. She is introduced when Ruby finds her living in the forest, and ends up being adopted into the "Prism Prison" members before the tournament.

Ame is the Violet Paladin, whose creation is heavily determined by Lavender. Due to this, her Paladin trait is Individuality.

She aims to learn more about herself and her role as the Violet Paladin, while becoming close friends with the "Prism Prison" members. She initially stays with Blaze, before living in Lavender's house.

Appearance
Amethyst is a pale Lunaran with dark purple eyes and black hair. Her hair covers her right eye, and is shown both long and short.

Her fighting gear goes through the most drastic changes, going from cloaks and sweaters, jackets, and trench coats. All of her fighting gear has a purple/black color scheme. Some of her common elements within her fighting gear include black pants, purple boots, and fingerless gloves.

While thinner than Ruby, she has broader shoulders and has a wider build.

Personality
Ame is introduced as being shy and paranoid about the people around her, due to living in the forest her whole life. As she interacts with the Prism Prison squad, she opens up a bit more to be soft and kind-hearted.

After the events of Arc 1, Amethyst becomes more grounded and confident in who she is as a person. She and Cobalt are considered the most emotionally intense of the modern Paladins, occasionally being the stereotypical "dark, broody, and angsty" ones of the group. However, she keeps her gentle nature and goes through more post-traumatic growth despite the challenges that she faces.

Shadow
Amethyst is a descendant of Stygians, those who survived the plague of darkness (caused by Eris) from medieval times. Stygians were the first Junoans to be able to control shadows, and who Ame represents today. Ame is able to form any sort of projectile or vague weapon from her shadows, as well as being able to teleport in large enough shadowy places.

Ultraviolet
As the Violet Paladin, Amethyst gains the power of Ultraviolet. Her powers act similarly to Ruby's and her own shadow manipulation, though with the bonus of being able to cause instant sunburns.

Support Elements
It is implied that Ame is able to shapeshift due to being a Lunaran, though she is unaware of her ability to.

Physical Abilities
Amethyst could be considered agile in her fighting abilities, though it is unknown if this is natural or a part of any support elements. She also gains the ability to wield sickle weapons, though prefers to rely on her elements and create elemental throwing knives.

Trivia

 * Amethyst's surname, Violetta, is a direct reference to Iris' daughter Violetta. However, Ame doesn't consider it her official surname and most likely uses it as a placeholder.
 * Mana considers Amethyst's name the hardest to find, as the color purple is scarcely mentioned throughout history as an official color. She ended up going with the most obvious name by naming her after a gemstone, and spent awhile looking for her surname.
 * Amethyst's surname was created before Violetta herself.
 * Ame's nickname is pronounced "Ami", not A-meh or Amy.
 * While slowly evolving into an aesthetic choice for her character rather than a personality inspiration, Ame was inspired by the "dark magical girl" stereotype found in characters such as Blake Belladonna (RWBY), Mew Zakuro (Tokyo Mew Mew), and Homura Akemi (Madoka Magica).
 * She is also inspired by Shadow the Hedgehog from the Sonic franchise.
 * She may be unintentionally inspired by Dust from Dust: An Elysian Tail.
 * Amethyst was one of the characters who improved when designed by Raven, however Mana designed her autumn and her second summer outfit.
 * Ame was initially meant to keep her long hair throughout the series, though after Raven drew her with short hair, Mana decided to give her short hair for her autumn design. The official explanation is that Ame grows her hair out in the forest before experimenting with cutting it in the summer.
 * In terms of musical inspiration, Ame's development arc is inspired by "It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Deathwish" by My Chemical Romance.
 * Ame's birthdate was debated to be either Feb. 6th or Feb. 14th. However, Mana felt the urge to make Ame a Pisces, and placed her birthday on Feb. 22nd.
 * Amethyst later becomes a part of Prism Prison as a piano player.
