Abilities for Iolite (specifically Bloodshot Iolite) please?
Iolite: For one thing, Iolite could have magnetism or the ability to manipulate them. With this, they could have a compass sense or a heightened sense of direction. Iolites were said to be used as navigators by the Vikings because of its strong pleochroism. Iolite is a vison stone. You could also give them a kind of sensory tracking ability. It helps fix perspective to those who feel are jinxed and aids astral travel. Iolite could have a heightened sense of sight, able to see objects from a far distance. Or they could have a special kind of eyesight that can see auras or see through illusions/tricks. Iolite is a gem of power and endurance. They could form protective shields around their allies or enhance their abilities temporarily.
Bloodshot Iolite/Iolite Sunstone: Said to combine the properties of both Iolite and Sunstone. You can check abilities suggested for Sunstone here. It does have its own metaphysical properties, though. Iolite-Sunstone is said to help one move forward and actualize their dreams and goals. Combine this with it being a creative stone used for art, imagination, and manifestation and I think they can bring art to life. That or they can create holograms from their gem and use the holograms for whatever they need. The stone helps in communication and expression. They could have abilities dealing with sound: sound manipulation, sound waves, voice mimicry, enticement, etc. Ioite Sunstone combine the wind and fire energies of their respective parts. You could give them lightning or the ability to create thunderstorms.
