Okay, so that was a bad use of words. How about this? "We must assume they are made of the same material as the rest of her body: hard light produced by her Gem."

' The Gem I was mentioning was the one found in Horror Club. It was just a single gem embedded in the wall of a lighthouse that telekinetically used halloween decor to scare the kids, a la Scooby Doo style. '

Yes, I know and did know what Gem you were speaking of.

'For Peridot, I said she was technology based'' not actually made of technology. This means her powers are similar to that of a robot or more of a technopath but isn't actually made of technology. MAGIC. '''

Oh, okay. So you're saying she can connect with the technology surrounding her? Or does she use magic like a robot would electricity?

'''They can change clothes whenever they want but it's more of a shapeshifting power. They have a base form that they keep at all time (Rebecca herself said this, lemme just find the link).'''

That base form is unable to escape the Gem when it is blocked on the outside. The Gem must levitate in order to release its body.

'''That may have been an error on my part. So I'd like to reiterate what I said. Unique may denote that only one person has it or it could mean that it is something not usually seen in the masses. In which case the latter definition is used.'''

Okay, I see your point.

 Practically  the same not literally the same. Something almost the same but not quite. Both deal with the manioulation of water but one encompasses all water based powers while the other only applies to manipulating water into shapes and forms.

What other water based powers are there that Hydrokinesis encompasses? I was under the impression that it was only the ability to move and position water molecules.

Here you go. Link!
