Personality
Amethyst is dedicated when it comes down to one task. This is because she was always told by her father that if she wanted to accomplish something, she would have to be determined to accomplish it. Amethyst took this to heart, and would always remember it when she was ever faced with a tough situation. Amethyst is also adventurous. It is hard to understand why she is so adventurous without knowing how she raised. Her mother was strict and would not let her do much. So she always wanted to explore without her mother. And when it comes to riddles, Amethyst was known to be intelligent. She always found riddles amazing and loved to solve them. There is probably no riddle she cannot solve. It might take longer to solve some riddles, but that is fine with Amethyst.

But Amethyst is also known to be dishonest. As a child, she would lie to her parents about different situations. When she was being bullied, she would tell her parents that she was fine so she could solve the problem on her own. She would lie to her friends about her boring life because she wanted to be seen as someone they could look up to. Amethyst would take the challenge before her as the most important, and look at everything else as if they were petty. She would be trying to solve a riddle, but would not see her friend, obviously upset, as the main problem. Her mood swings were also a common thing. There was no real thing that could have caused this. It was a bunch of smaller things and events. She, herself, could not explain why her moods swing the way they do.

Weapons and Abilities
Ersatz means replacement in German, and is her robotic arm. Ersatz technically is the sword addition to her arm. Her father added it to her arm after studying her arm for several months. It is a sword that slides out from a slit on the top of her hand. The blade itself is silver and double edged. She uses it with slashing techniques. It was not built to work with Dust, and therefore, cannot use Dust. Zusatz means addition in German. Zusatz is a silver gauntlet with a sword set-up similar to ''Ersatz. The main difference between the two weapons is that Zusatz'' can use Dust, but only powder Dust. Amethyst will often use wind, fire, of ice Dust with it. Amethyst can perform a slashing motion of which, combined with the elemental Dust, can cause a long range slash wave. (Think of Blake's purple slash wave.)

Her weapons are light, allowing her to be agile. But because they are not driven by power, she cannot perform hard hits. This becomes a problem when faced with tank opponents or power driven opponents. But she can buy time for her team using using her long range slashes. When it comes to defence, her weapons do not provide much protection. But she can use them to block opponents. Her aura, a violet in color, does sort of help with this. But if her arm is harmed, it may malfunction.

Her semblance can be described as ''Vector Glyphs. ''The Glyphs change the direction of moving objects. But she has not had her semblance for that long, and is only able to use it on herself, and she can only use them a few times in battle. The Glyphs can only change direction and not speed. The Glyphs are violet and often have an arrow pointing in the new direction.

Backstory
Amethyst knew her parents would disapprove of her exploring, so she didn't tell them or anyone where she was going. While exploring she encountered some White Fang. Being as she was a stupid little kid back then, she tried to battle them and scare them off with a butter knife (just to add humour to the story.) One of the younger White Fang members, and probably a new member, happened to lose his temper with her. He slashed her left arm with his weapon, causing a deep slash and terrible pain. Amethyst screamed. A few moments later and her neighbour appeared in her line of sight. He took her to a hospital. They patched up her arm and sent her home where she was grounded until stated otherwise. A few months later and it was revealed that the surgery on her arm caused an infection in her arm. It got so bad that they had to cut off her arm.

Her father felt bad that she couldn't become a huntress any more. In an effort to fix that, she asked the Atlas corporation if they could help her. After some arguing, they agreed on terms. Amethyst was then given a robotic arm, that was later given a sword by her father after he studied it for quite some time.

''The only way for Amethyst to get her robotic arm was for her father to work for Atlas and to see her progress using the arm. Her father didn't want to agree to these terms, but did anyway. So he now studies her progress for a reason he himself did not know.''

Relationships
Phoenix: Her relationship with her partner Phoenix is still in the works. But Amethyst is closest to him than the rest of the team. For the time being, that is.

Czernobog: Her relationship with Czernobog can be questioned. Czernobog seems to not like her company, but is willing to work with her. Amethyst wishes for them to become better friends.

Tahnee: Her and Tahnee are on good terms. Whenever Amethyst is having troubles with school work, Tahnee helps her.

Mercury: Amethyst has watched from afar and has seen Mercury's fighting style. Because of this, she wants to know Mercury better. (Reading up on The Hatter, I saw that Mercury was a term used often. And I thought of this Mercury... weird. Right?)

Quotes
''"Tea is perfect before adventure, didn't you hear?" -Amethyst to Tahnee when asked why she likes tea''

''"Czernobog! How can you sit in one place? It's way to boring, isn't it?" -Amethyst to Czernobog, pointing out how he sits calmly.''

Trivia

 * Amethyst is based off of The Hatter.
 * She was originally going to be based off of The Cheshire Cat, but was changed due to the robotic arm part.
