Character roast thread would probably be in the spam section. It would work well on deviantart with a picture of them holding the "roast me" sign for the people to post about the character. Maybe a group could be made for that concept on there.

Funnily enough I've probably been in less than 10 individual side battles. I did about four or so before we started ranks,not including tournaments, multiverse, and unfinished stuff. I remember two of them were poor Evvie getting killed. She did pretty good in the multiverse, though, killing the bad elves, I think winning as a team against some massive undead whatever he was, and a giant, who did end up killing her by throwing rocks but she lasted a while. I think our dragon bailed so we ended up loosing.
Did Gweyr make it out alright?
I wouldn't use ninja magneto because either winner will win without much of a fight, as you say, depending on if he tricks her or not rather then us getting a good fight. Even though Evvie's a higher tier she'd likely get demolished, so she's out unless I use the one from my multiverse who's not nerfed. who would in turn crush him and tank all his attacks. Ria from the multiverse is peak human and has a scifi weapon but would likely loose. I'd like to use her for something due to her only, so far, not getting a single hit in anywhere, but against him is not the place.
I'll need to come up with a new character idea that's not such a hard counter as ninja magneto.
On a side note, know the "roast me" meme on Reddit where people post a picture of themselves to get insulted in good fun? I can imagine that for some of my characters taking part in it. XD

oh okay, so in order to start a fight I a challenger or being a challangie must choose or have a character chosen to be the fighter right? and assuming I or they accept , who create's the post where it takes place? I assume the challangie? (Side note: I'm not sure if "Challangie" is a real word, that or I'm just horribly misspelling it)
*pops in
You guys can decide who starts things off once you both agree on the characters. The challengie would likely start things off but not always
I said anti-tank but I meant anti-gun. She's not good at moving large quantities of mass at once, so would struggle greatly lifting a tank even if touching it. Magneto is much larger scale than her, but she has other advantages over him in close range against smaller objects. She's super duper versatile, but drop a bridge on her and she's done for.
Donny could only realistically win if he snuck an explosive somewhere she doesn't notice, but he'd likely be super dead before that happened as she'd be railgunning him to pieces while deflecting his bullets. Pepper spray could also work well against her to negate her ability but obviously far too difficult to deliver that attack successfully.

@Vordak
My most obvious anti-gun is like a ninja magneto. She can alter bullet flight paths where even someone who shoots 100% accurate would miss and there's nothing they could do about it besides hope she's not focusing on their bullets. with her reaction times able to keep up with bullets as easily as softballs, you're in major doo doo if that's all you rely on. Then if she gets close enough she could fling people around who has any metal on them, such as armor, or shoot objects like a railgun. She can magnetize anything, but would need to touch it.

Somebody with the ability to actually hit what they aim at with near 100% accuracy perhaps should be placed on a tier above human?
I'd easily put them in powered tier even if they were just an average guy with a gun. His destructive power combined with accuracy will mean I'll be leaning more towards the low end of mid powered.
I'll also need to come up with some anti-gun characters.
EDIT: Wow. Biggest spam in the interest check ever.
Hero Name: Invincible Girl
Real Name: None
Nicknames: Vincy (derived from in"vinci"ble)
Age: 103
Gender: Female (Technically asexual, but identifies and appears female)
Race: Created lifeform (human mixed with heavenly being)
Appearance: She has unnaturally white skin free of any marks or blemishes, as well as no private parts, having a "barbie doll" anatomy. Her head has all of the standard features one would expect. Her golden colored hair cannot be cut, but instead stays at the same length since birth, reaching the small of her back often in a simple, straight style with bangs reaching almost to her eyebrows. Her irises are also golden. She has no clear ethnicity but would likely be considered European looking to an Earthling. Her facial features themselves have nothing standing out from the crowd, the face one might picture as "girl" in the dictionary.
She wears a white leather suit that looks similar to this. It has no special defensive properties, as none are needed.
Biology: She doesn't have a digestive/urinary tract below the stomach, or any other organs down there for that matter. What little food she has to consume to stay healthy is broken down and absorbed completely into her body from her stomach, which is either used up or radiated out through her skin. She's not hollow, but instead has normal tissue (normal for her, at least) filling the gaps.
Personality: She's naive and inexperienced about the ways of the world despite being a few years over 100. Almost all facets of her life are taken care of by others, so she would struggle doing something as simple as walking into a fast food joint and paying for her order, asking for clarification on such matters. As such she doesn't like operating on her own accord, moving when told and exactly as told, although her handlers are trying to get her to be more independent now, with limited success. She doesn't like change.
She's on the antisocial side but not shy, given how she's lived under constant surveillance so is used to it. Don't expect any long winded speeches on anything, especially her opinions, which she mostly replies with, "I don't know". This is an improvement on how she was originally where she was mostly catatonic. She's now capable of gaining friends who can put up with her antics and hold her hand through things.
Abilities
Physical Abilities- She's most well known for being nearly invincible. It's possible she could survive a supernova force attack, but nothing of that magnitude has ever hit her so nobody knows her true extent. Her greatest known feat is surviving the epicenter of an attack that obliterated 1/4th of a planet without a scratch on her. It goes without saying that her entire body can withstand such attacks, from her hair to her eyeballs to her insides.
Her other abilities are far less impressive. Against greater threats who can fling her through multiple buildings, it's unlikely she could keep up with their strength or speed, although compared to a normal human she could easily crush them. Her reactions are unnaturally fast, but certain enemies have been able to strike her before she could properly react.
Life Functions- She can operate normally without breathing for eight hours or survive without any food or water for a month. Not having these things doesn't kill her, but it does put her into a suspended animation of sorts until proper life functions are restored. Her body mainly just needs connections to the cosmic energy of the universe absorbed within her cells. Cut her off from that life function and she would truly die if she ran out of the energy stored within her.
Negative Status Effect Resistance- Things like poisons and germs have limited effect on her, as her very cells can shrug off damage and repel attacks on the micro and macro level. It's possible some exceptions can get through and cause her harm, but anything commonly experienced usually doesn't. For example, she's invincible to the common cold.
Combat Training- She doesn't commonly use any weapons even if not strictly against the idea. She has little finesse in the way she fights, as she hasn't had to learn proper fighting styles in order to survive. Her survival instinct is virtually nil, and that clearly comes through with how she fights. She often waits for the enemy to draw in close, doing most of the work for her so she just has to tank their attack and finish them off while they strike uselessly against her.
Weaknesses
Dark Cosmic Energy- Her body absorbs cosmic energy by default, not distinguishing if it is dark, and thus harmful to her. She can be weakened severely in this matter and can feel pain, but is generally still near invincible.
Traps- Due to her not having limitless raw strength, it's conceivable that she could be trapped within something that she cannot smash her way out of.
Mind Abilities- It's possible someone can interfere with her mind by way of mind control, hypnosis, etc. or just plain outsmart and trick her.
Bio
Invincible Girl was created in a top secret bunker from a mix of human dna infused into a heavenly being's cells in a once in a lifetime successful experiment, allowing her to take human form but with heavenly being cells instead of normal human ones. She didn't develop magic, but retained intense physical durability of all the cells that made up her body. As they don't reproduce or eliminate waste the same way as humans, such organs failed to develop.
As her creation was in progress, a mysterious energy reading was detected off in the distance directly above their position and closing in on their location fast. They had roughly ten minutes to complete the process or run in fear, but the scientists chose the first option, finishing her just in time as a magical blast hit and wiped out 1/4th of the planet. She was the only survivor at the center of the blast radius, curled up unharmed in a ball, so obviously aroused suspicion that she was behind it as search parties made their way there. Although she was physically as developed as she ever would be, her mind wasn't quite ready and she was in a comatose state for 20 years.
100 years later and she still looked the same as ever. She was considered the one responsible and was unable to function in normal society anyways, so was locked up in a facility during much of this time. She was treated fairly by most people and was used to this way of life, so managed to retain a positive, albeit simple outlook on life. Some kind gentlemen and women arrived on her 99th year alive to try and get her to be able to function outside of their walls, as her prison sentence was only for 100 years and she clearly was living longer than that. Before this she only exited the facility to take on superhero activities, not wandering around like a normal civilian. She was released and given her own small apartment to live in as a test of her normal living ability, but she still gets assistance every day once she heads out.

Name: Ruchette Vorsalus
Alias: Ruchi (informal nickname that she tolerates), "Diamond in the Rough" , the Diamond
Age: 29
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Height: 5'9''
Weight: 130 pounds without excess carbon, roughly 655 at full carbon storage (around her size in diamond added onto her normal weight)
Appearance: (This is not my drawing. I will draw her when I have more time and motivation. Differences to this drawing will be mentioned in equipment.)
Personality: She's very self confident and doesn't feel the need to prove herself as a result. If she looses then she can accept that some people are simply more powerful, not that she's weak, so doesn't let it eat away at her and snap like some cocky people might should they be proven inferior. Even if she can be overconfident at first, she can learn her lesson and stop being so cocky, or even take things seriously from the beginning if she feels even a slight possibility that the situations warrants it.
She's this calm and analytical in general, making her seem somewhat emotionless. She finds things boring pretty easily and often looses interest, sometimes even abandoning fights midway through if she doesn't see the point. People call her a coward for doing so, which of course doesn't bother her. She won't let other people stop her from doing what she feels like. In fact she'd much rather die than submit to others on things she doesn't want to do. This can make her be extremely stubborn when it comes to her personal freedom. If she does follow through with orders then it's either what she would have done normally or the possible results have piqued her interest and she feels like she should do it for personal reasons.
One thing she finds interest in is powerful foes that can stand up to her, keeping her attentive and focused on the task at hand. It's possible she may handicap herself in some way if it could be interesting to see how they could fight to take advantage of it. For example, seeing if they could use her long hair against her. She won't often admit to forming rivalries and friendships, but if she finds someone interesting then she may put at least some amount of effort into keeping in touch with them from time to time, far different than her normal behavior of blowing off interactions with the average joe.
She's mostly selfish, said to have a heart as hard as diamond, but she's not inhuman and could aid people (without admitting that's what she's doing) if the feeling hits her hard enough. She doesn't do bad things for the lolz, but does occasionally do bad things if she deems it necessary, not holding back from eliminating potential threats. If you leave her alone then she will leave you alone. If you annoy her she may teach you a lesson or ignore you depending on if the mood hits her. If you seriously get in her way...prepare to die.
Talents: Her swordsmanship is not as skilled as someone who specializes solely in it, but in terms of weapons usage this is her best bet and could be described as very good, having a graceful fighting style balanced between strength and speed. She's not overly experienced in unarmed fighting so is not the best if caught without powers or a sword, but she uses a decent amount of kicks during normal fights if up close and personal so would still be able to rely on that aspect pretty well, her punches being on the other hand having a fighting style simply of what would make sense based on instinct rather than much training. She's also not really experienced with grappling using arms and legs, either offensively or defensively.
She has a good head on her shoulders, being fast on her feet not only physically, but mentally as well. She's not mad scientist level of genius but she definitely shows her wit.
Powers
Like a decent number of people from her world, she was gifted upon birth with the power to manipulate her body in ways earthlings such as ourselves can't by using the power of ki, their natural body energy, as a medium to bring out their special powers. Her specific level of power to manipulate diamond is exceedingly rare, part of the much more common carbon branch of body manipulation. While most can only control graphite to some extent, they cannot normally achieve the other forms that carbon can take such as diamond and graphene. The diamond level of control was achieved by Ruchette at age seven, making her a prodigy known as the Diamond in the Rough. Her graphite control was not particularly strong, making her appear average until she discovered her special talent lay not with the commoners, but with the elites of her field.
The following is her abilities stemming from her carbon/diamond body manipulation, separated into categories for easy reference. They all technically could count as a single power even if the uses if it can vary wildly.
Physical Enhancements- Her body is directly infused from head to toe with thin, diamond structures that doesn't negatively interfere with her normal bodily functions. Working in conjunction with her muscles, she can lift around 1,000 pounds and run at 40 miles per hour, also providing structural integrity so she doesn't hurt herself nearly as easily while pulling off intense physical feats. As such, any damage on the level that she can deal out would be no more effective against her defenses than a normal human striking a normal human. Most normal humans against her heightened abilities would be shrugged off unless they use proper techniques that get around defenses. People could even whack her with baseball bats and she could ignore them. Of course guns could still get through these natural defenses of hers.
If she bleeds, her diamond flows out the wound and can block further bleeding, although this doesn't mean the damage otherwise isn't done. Diamond can also block poisons or other unwanted things in this manner, although if she's not aware of it until it's already circulating around her bloodstream then she can't block her entire bloodstream for obvious reasons.
Her reaction times and senses are well trained but do not get any special boosts. Her body weighing 655 pounds while fully loaded with carbon/diamond (whatever term you'd prefer) is important enough of an enhancement to mention again here. This can add on a lot of force to her natural attacks due to her moving as quickly, nimbly, etc. as if she didn't have any extra weight at all. This extra diamond inside of her is partially out in her entire body and also partially condensed by way of ki, able to flood out into her body when desired. Unless otherwise stated, this condensed diamond would be spread evenly around, so cut off an arm and she'd loose an appropriate portion of her diamond with it should she not collect it back into her (more on actual manipulation of her diamond will be mentioned in one of the following categories to explain how she'd do so).
Resistances- She can resist heat up to 3550 degrees Celsius before burning, but could still suffer from heat stroke eventually. For electricity she can switch between graphite, which conducts electricity, and diamond, which insulates it, to direct electrical currents through her body in the way that she wants should she know it's coming and it's not powerful enough to overcome the properties of these materials. Her body can withstand harmful oxidation up to a high level.
Diamond Control- She can sprout and control diamond as long as the diamond is connected to her ki, which can flow through her body and her diamond, but at some point along the way it has to be connected back to her body. In other words, she can sprout diamond from her body or from diamond connected to her body, and control said diamond that remains connected. If she fires diamond off then she can no longer control it or control diamond that isn't hers. Very close to her body still counts as her body, so normal clothing doesn't block out her ki. Of course when it comes to diamond sprouting out of her body, the clothing would indeed be in the way and would either be torn through or shoved aside depending on the circumstance (in her case she has slits built into her outfit). This makes her wearing armor more disadvantageous than helpful and potentially ruining clothes that doesn't take her powers into account.
She can infuse her diamond back into her body by the same rules that govern her control of it, so she must get into touching distance, breaking it down and absorbing it within the time it takes to send it out. This is a time period of a second for the volume of a cube with equal sides 2 inches long, but of course not limited to the cube shape. She can repair it at the same rate.
Her diamond, thanks to being infused with her ki, doesn't break like normal and can be flexible while still maintaining it's natural hardness of 10 on the mohs scale, meaning that it can cut steel if enough force is applied. In terms of it's durability, it's now bulletproof to a single shot of a medium strength bullet while at a thickness of 3 inches (taking into account her speed of sending out diamond, she could create bulletproof armor in only a second if she made it have very little room for error). If this defense is exceeded then it will shatter like normal diamond, potentially messing up a large chunk of the diamond depending on the type of attack hitting it.
She's not able to create just any shape effectively. Imagine a horse sprouting an arm and wondering what to do with it. It can move it, but it will be very clumsy. Therefore, she requires training with different shapes, the only thing limiting what shapes she can make besides the amount of material she has to work with, being around the size of her body, not a coincidence due to her chi being a factor, which is connected to her body size.
Firing off diamond takes charge time for it to build up the potential energy to turn to kinetic energy through use of her ki. As such the diamond glows white for a second to launch diamond the mass of what she could create in a second (creating diamond and then firing it, therefore, would take two seconds total if the size of the example). It would have the power of an average pistol for this one second of charge. Conveniently, charging up a small or large diamond to fire off would have the same power due to traveling faster or slower, so the power depends on charge time rather than size. Charging for 10 seconds would make her diamond as powerful as a sniper, while charging for the other amount of seconds between the two examples would place it somewhere in between, obviously.
Trained Diamond Shapes- She's most trained with arms and legs made of diamond for them to replace her real ones with little negligible reduction in skill unless you ask her to perform delicate surgery or something. She can even have a second pair of arms out below her real ones at the same time of using her real ones. Of course doing the same but with feet would be ridiculous and ineffective so is never done even if she could.
She's also well trained with a tail (that looks styled like this but diamond) of various lengths, able to grip into things and strike with the force of her kicks and punches.
Creating something simple like blades doesn't need nearly as much training to pull off (even if wielding them does), so she's great at blade creation. She sometimes uses blades not only on her arms/hands, but her legs/feet as well, sometimes like a high heel to grip onto something or slash them with her kicks. She can create an entire sword, rather than just the blade, and wield it as such if she desires. She often does this by forming the sword out of her thigh, starting at the handle, and pulling it out.
Diamond Shaving- A joke ability, this explains how she can swiftly eliminate unwanted body hair.
Diamond Body Focus- She can focus on the diamond inside her body to enhance it to the defense found outside her body when the size of her body part being effected, but this stiffens her body where effected and requires three seconds to reach this max defense. She cannot keep parts of her body like this for over ten seconds before starting to damage tissue, and certain parts can't do this at all if they wouldn't last even that long for other reasons. For example, use it on the heart and it would stop beating or the brain would die. This mainly makes her use it as a last resort and on areas on top of vital areas she can't use it on, hoping to stop it before it goes that far.
Graphite Control- Not nearly as powerful as her diamond or used as much. It follows the same rules of her diamond. Being very soft, her best use is to have it flood out and act to mess up people's movements as if they are walking through deep, sticky sand thanks to her ki keeping it sort of glued together. However, wasting this much of her carbon would be a last resort if she feels like this is the only technique that could work. She cannot form any complex shapes with graphite, at best having whips that behave sort of like water and spill back down to earth after only a few seconds.
Equipment
Head: Bare
Body: A trench coat and tight black "underarmor" (like what sports people would wear) underneath it, similar to the picture provided in her appearance. There's no defensive quality to it outside of average clothing. There's multiple slits in it that aren't really that visible when nothing is sticking through them due to the material on top covering the slit, that material pushed out of the way easily when needed due to not being connected over the slit. No part of her clothing would stop her power from breaking through if need be.
Hands: Leather fingerless gloves, very often obliterated during a fight.
Feet: Knee high leather boots customized with holes in the soles, sometimes obliterated during a fight as well.
Weapons: She doesn't carry a gun or other weapon under normal circumstances.
Bio
She was born in the capital city of Varsals, named after their planet Varsalt. It was a world where you abuse or be abused and power is everything. Those with body manipulation were either treated as slaves to put their abilities to "good use" and be kept down or they developed enough power to break free of their invisible bonds and become part of the ruling elite, often with the new goal of keeping down those from the very same position they just came from in order to ensure their own personal well being. People feared each other; feared body manipulators who couldn't be kept in check.
The carbon users were often commoners and treated like dirt. However, her elite father named Lenraddo, who never revealed his power yet still vanquished the foes who challenged him, had a secret affair with a lowly carbon user woman. Ruchette was left completely in the dark by this, and this wasn't the only troubles she had growing up. His father being absent still had him as the better parent, if that's possible, as her mother, Raida, was abusive and impatient with Ruchette, who was admittedly not the perfect child growing up, often causing trouble and picking fights.
When Ruchette was seven and lashed out at a group of bullies using a jagged diamond that suddenly appeared out of her palm, Raida saw this as an opportunity to get her out of her hands for good and get a quick paycheck, turning her over to the defense forces who specialized in body manipulation, who took note of such incredible merit and gave her intensive training and attempted brainwashing to turn her into the ultimate tool for their own goals.
The brainwashing was eventually overcome and she used all of her training against them, killing the group, although she was still soon after offered a job as part of the elite royal soldiers despite this little black mark on her resume and being at the young age of 15. The king, who's only referred to as such, gained some respect and interest from her as a result, especially when he let her mostly run wild as long as she carried out certain tasks, which she found amusing for a king to allow. Some of these tasks involved her murdering body manipulators who were suspected of plotting rebellions, some of them parents of children who had bullied her, making her revel in her new career a bit too much.
Traitors and other criminals among both the poor and the elite were not safe from her. She didn't feel sorry for them, feeling like if they didn't have the power to carry out their goals to fruition then they deserved what was coming to them, especially if they make the mistake to stand against her. To her, growing up, power was all that mattered. She found many of the elites strangely lacking in it compared to her as her skills were honed with each passing year, revealing that few could truly stand against her within the city. Things became boring for her until one day when a man named Lenraddo showed up, her unknown father, and wiped the floor with her, taunting her all the while and revealing that he killed the king.
There went her one interesting person, although along came another one to replace him. Lenraddo accessed the ability to travel to other worlds and off he went , prompting Ruchette to follow in his footsteps, although the man gave her the slip soon enough. With no reason to head back home, she decided to roam around the new worlds a bit to find the man or anyone else who would catch her interest.
It was during this wandering that she got called into the tournament. Having nothing better to do, she accepted.
Alias: Ruchi (informal nickname that she tolerates), "Diamond in the Rough" , the Diamond
Age: 29
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Height: 5'9''
Weight: 130 pounds without excess carbon, roughly 655 at full carbon storage (around her size in diamond added onto her normal weight)
Appearance: (This is not my drawing. I will draw her when I have more time and motivation. Differences to this drawing will be mentioned in equipment.)
Personality: She's very self confident and doesn't feel the need to prove herself as a result. If she looses then she can accept that some people are simply more powerful, not that she's weak, so doesn't let it eat away at her and snap like some cocky people might should they be proven inferior. Even if she can be overconfident at first, she can learn her lesson and stop being so cocky, or even take things seriously from the beginning if she feels even a slight possibility that the situations warrants it.
She's this calm and analytical in general, making her seem somewhat emotionless. She finds things boring pretty easily and often looses interest, sometimes even abandoning fights midway through if she doesn't see the point. People call her a coward for doing so, which of course doesn't bother her. She won't let other people stop her from doing what she feels like. In fact she'd much rather die than submit to others on things she doesn't want to do. This can make her be extremely stubborn when it comes to her personal freedom. If she does follow through with orders then it's either what she would have done normally or the possible results have piqued her interest and she feels like she should do it for personal reasons.
One thing she finds interest in is powerful foes that can stand up to her, keeping her attentive and focused on the task at hand. It's possible she may handicap herself in some way if it could be interesting to see how they could fight to take advantage of it. For example, seeing if they could use her long hair against her. She won't often admit to forming rivalries and friendships, but if she finds someone interesting then she may put at least some amount of effort into keeping in touch with them from time to time, far different than her normal behavior of blowing off interactions with the average joe.
She's mostly selfish, said to have a heart as hard as diamond, but she's not inhuman and could aid people (without admitting that's what she's doing) if the feeling hits her hard enough. She doesn't do bad things for the lolz, but does occasionally do bad things if she deems it necessary, not holding back from eliminating potential threats. If you leave her alone then she will leave you alone. If you annoy her she may teach you a lesson or ignore you depending on if the mood hits her. If you seriously get in her way...prepare to die.
Talents: Her swordsmanship is not as skilled as someone who specializes solely in it, but in terms of weapons usage this is her best bet and could be described as very good, having a graceful fighting style balanced between strength and speed. She's not overly experienced in unarmed fighting so is not the best if caught without powers or a sword, but she uses a decent amount of kicks during normal fights if up close and personal so would still be able to rely on that aspect pretty well, her punches being on the other hand having a fighting style simply of what would make sense based on instinct rather than much training. She's also not really experienced with grappling using arms and legs, either offensively or defensively.
She has a good head on her shoulders, being fast on her feet not only physically, but mentally as well. She's not mad scientist level of genius but she definitely shows her wit.
Powers
Like a decent number of people from her world, she was gifted upon birth with the power to manipulate her body in ways earthlings such as ourselves can't by using the power of ki, their natural body energy, as a medium to bring out their special powers. Her specific level of power to manipulate diamond is exceedingly rare, part of the much more common carbon branch of body manipulation. While most can only control graphite to some extent, they cannot normally achieve the other forms that carbon can take such as diamond and graphene. The diamond level of control was achieved by Ruchette at age seven, making her a prodigy known as the Diamond in the Rough. Her graphite control was not particularly strong, making her appear average until she discovered her special talent lay not with the commoners, but with the elites of her field.
The following is her abilities stemming from her carbon/diamond body manipulation, separated into categories for easy reference. They all technically could count as a single power even if the uses if it can vary wildly.
Physical Enhancements- Her body is directly infused from head to toe with thin, diamond structures that doesn't negatively interfere with her normal bodily functions. Working in conjunction with her muscles, she can lift around 1,000 pounds and run at 40 miles per hour, also providing structural integrity so she doesn't hurt herself nearly as easily while pulling off intense physical feats. As such, any damage on the level that she can deal out would be no more effective against her defenses than a normal human striking a normal human. Most normal humans against her heightened abilities would be shrugged off unless they use proper techniques that get around defenses. People could even whack her with baseball bats and she could ignore them. Of course guns could still get through these natural defenses of hers.
If she bleeds, her diamond flows out the wound and can block further bleeding, although this doesn't mean the damage otherwise isn't done. Diamond can also block poisons or other unwanted things in this manner, although if she's not aware of it until it's already circulating around her bloodstream then she can't block her entire bloodstream for obvious reasons.
Her reaction times and senses are well trained but do not get any special boosts. Her body weighing 655 pounds while fully loaded with carbon/diamond (whatever term you'd prefer) is important enough of an enhancement to mention again here. This can add on a lot of force to her natural attacks due to her moving as quickly, nimbly, etc. as if she didn't have any extra weight at all. This extra diamond inside of her is partially out in her entire body and also partially condensed by way of ki, able to flood out into her body when desired. Unless otherwise stated, this condensed diamond would be spread evenly around, so cut off an arm and she'd loose an appropriate portion of her diamond with it should she not collect it back into her (more on actual manipulation of her diamond will be mentioned in one of the following categories to explain how she'd do so).
Resistances- She can resist heat up to 3550 degrees Celsius before burning, but could still suffer from heat stroke eventually. For electricity she can switch between graphite, which conducts electricity, and diamond, which insulates it, to direct electrical currents through her body in the way that she wants should she know it's coming and it's not powerful enough to overcome the properties of these materials. Her body can withstand harmful oxidation up to a high level.
Diamond Control- She can sprout and control diamond as long as the diamond is connected to her ki, which can flow through her body and her diamond, but at some point along the way it has to be connected back to her body. In other words, she can sprout diamond from her body or from diamond connected to her body, and control said diamond that remains connected. If she fires diamond off then she can no longer control it or control diamond that isn't hers. Very close to her body still counts as her body, so normal clothing doesn't block out her ki. Of course when it comes to diamond sprouting out of her body, the clothing would indeed be in the way and would either be torn through or shoved aside depending on the circumstance (in her case she has slits built into her outfit). This makes her wearing armor more disadvantageous than helpful and potentially ruining clothes that doesn't take her powers into account.
She can infuse her diamond back into her body by the same rules that govern her control of it, so she must get into touching distance, breaking it down and absorbing it within the time it takes to send it out. This is a time period of a second for the volume of a cube with equal sides 2 inches long, but of course not limited to the cube shape. She can repair it at the same rate.
Her diamond, thanks to being infused with her ki, doesn't break like normal and can be flexible while still maintaining it's natural hardness of 10 on the mohs scale, meaning that it can cut steel if enough force is applied. In terms of it's durability, it's now bulletproof to a single shot of a medium strength bullet while at a thickness of 3 inches (taking into account her speed of sending out diamond, she could create bulletproof armor in only a second if she made it have very little room for error). If this defense is exceeded then it will shatter like normal diamond, potentially messing up a large chunk of the diamond depending on the type of attack hitting it.
She's not able to create just any shape effectively. Imagine a horse sprouting an arm and wondering what to do with it. It can move it, but it will be very clumsy. Therefore, she requires training with different shapes, the only thing limiting what shapes she can make besides the amount of material she has to work with, being around the size of her body, not a coincidence due to her chi being a factor, which is connected to her body size.
Firing off diamond takes charge time for it to build up the potential energy to turn to kinetic energy through use of her ki. As such the diamond glows white for a second to launch diamond the mass of what she could create in a second (creating diamond and then firing it, therefore, would take two seconds total if the size of the example). It would have the power of an average pistol for this one second of charge. Conveniently, charging up a small or large diamond to fire off would have the same power due to traveling faster or slower, so the power depends on charge time rather than size. Charging for 10 seconds would make her diamond as powerful as a sniper, while charging for the other amount of seconds between the two examples would place it somewhere in between, obviously.
Trained Diamond Shapes- She's most trained with arms and legs made of diamond for them to replace her real ones with little negligible reduction in skill unless you ask her to perform delicate surgery or something. She can even have a second pair of arms out below her real ones at the same time of using her real ones. Of course doing the same but with feet would be ridiculous and ineffective so is never done even if she could.
She's also well trained with a tail (that looks styled like this but diamond) of various lengths, able to grip into things and strike with the force of her kicks and punches.
Creating something simple like blades doesn't need nearly as much training to pull off (even if wielding them does), so she's great at blade creation. She sometimes uses blades not only on her arms/hands, but her legs/feet as well, sometimes like a high heel to grip onto something or slash them with her kicks. She can create an entire sword, rather than just the blade, and wield it as such if she desires. She often does this by forming the sword out of her thigh, starting at the handle, and pulling it out.
Diamond Shaving- A joke ability, this explains how she can swiftly eliminate unwanted body hair.
Diamond Body Focus- She can focus on the diamond inside her body to enhance it to the defense found outside her body when the size of her body part being effected, but this stiffens her body where effected and requires three seconds to reach this max defense. She cannot keep parts of her body like this for over ten seconds before starting to damage tissue, and certain parts can't do this at all if they wouldn't last even that long for other reasons. For example, use it on the heart and it would stop beating or the brain would die. This mainly makes her use it as a last resort and on areas on top of vital areas she can't use it on, hoping to stop it before it goes that far.
Graphite Control- Not nearly as powerful as her diamond or used as much. It follows the same rules of her diamond. Being very soft, her best use is to have it flood out and act to mess up people's movements as if they are walking through deep, sticky sand thanks to her ki keeping it sort of glued together. However, wasting this much of her carbon would be a last resort if she feels like this is the only technique that could work. She cannot form any complex shapes with graphite, at best having whips that behave sort of like water and spill back down to earth after only a few seconds.
Equipment
Head: Bare
Body: A trench coat and tight black "underarmor" (like what sports people would wear) underneath it, similar to the picture provided in her appearance. There's no defensive quality to it outside of average clothing. There's multiple slits in it that aren't really that visible when nothing is sticking through them due to the material on top covering the slit, that material pushed out of the way easily when needed due to not being connected over the slit. No part of her clothing would stop her power from breaking through if need be.
Hands: Leather fingerless gloves, very often obliterated during a fight.
Feet: Knee high leather boots customized with holes in the soles, sometimes obliterated during a fight as well.
Weapons: She doesn't carry a gun or other weapon under normal circumstances.
Bio
She was born in the capital city of Varsals, named after their planet Varsalt. It was a world where you abuse or be abused and power is everything. Those with body manipulation were either treated as slaves to put their abilities to "good use" and be kept down or they developed enough power to break free of their invisible bonds and become part of the ruling elite, often with the new goal of keeping down those from the very same position they just came from in order to ensure their own personal well being. People feared each other; feared body manipulators who couldn't be kept in check.
The carbon users were often commoners and treated like dirt. However, her elite father named Lenraddo, who never revealed his power yet still vanquished the foes who challenged him, had a secret affair with a lowly carbon user woman. Ruchette was left completely in the dark by this, and this wasn't the only troubles she had growing up. His father being absent still had him as the better parent, if that's possible, as her mother, Raida, was abusive and impatient with Ruchette, who was admittedly not the perfect child growing up, often causing trouble and picking fights.
When Ruchette was seven and lashed out at a group of bullies using a jagged diamond that suddenly appeared out of her palm, Raida saw this as an opportunity to get her out of her hands for good and get a quick paycheck, turning her over to the defense forces who specialized in body manipulation, who took note of such incredible merit and gave her intensive training and attempted brainwashing to turn her into the ultimate tool for their own goals.
The brainwashing was eventually overcome and she used all of her training against them, killing the group, although she was still soon after offered a job as part of the elite royal soldiers despite this little black mark on her resume and being at the young age of 15.

Just what do I have to do to get another match!?
Give me 50 million.
You want to fight with donny? It seems like his hitting flies with his magnum would mean dodging is almost out of the question unless he's fighting a superhuman speedster.
I'm playing too much Overwatch because that fan the hammer skill of his can only remind me of the "McCree is OP" business going on.
