Tazuma Claire

Claire (暮亞 (クレア)) is a Gemstone and a member of the Kamisato Faction.

Appearance
Claire has long, tied back black hair and wears thick glasses. She also wears a white apron-like dress which leaves her back bare. She would look plain and inconspicuous, however she has giant tropical flowers blooming on either side of head and even more colorful flower petals adorning her back.

Background
Claire was part of the same school that Kamisato Kakeru attended and was a normal student like him. She was part of the gardening club. According to Kakeru, she only gave him quiet greetings whenever he entered the close room and he described their relationship as not being close enough to eat lunch together. Some event happened that involved Kakeru presumably saving her which caused her to fall in love with him and join the Kamisato Faction.

Abilities
Claire's ability as a Gemstone is the manipulation of plant-based matter. She can use vines to attack and grapple enemies or create a cushion by weaving those vines like a net. She is also capable of controlling carnivorous plants to ambush enemies. Aside from plant manipulation, Claire's control over plant matter also covers plant fats.

Character Art Design
Haimura created the designs of Claire, Ellen and Elza using the concept of girls who are "twisted in a galge-ish way". Claire was initially designed to have only two large flowers dangling from thinner stems, but this detail was eventually changed to appear much larger than the previous design, which Haimura stated was intentional because the initial design was "too plain".
