Chromastone

Chromastone is the Codon Stream's sample of the Crystalsapien species from the planet MorOtesi.

Description
Chromastone's body is dark-purple, crystalline, and silicon-based. The Crystalsapien species is related to the Petrosapiens of Petropia. In the two-part season three premiere "The Vengeance of Vilgax Chromastone got shattered into pieces by Vilgax. The Omnitrix, in order to prevent the wearer's health becoming compromised, reformed the crystal shards of Chromastone's body into Diamondhead. In "The Secret of Chromastone", Tetrax used a seismic weapon to shatter Diamondhead's crystalline structure, exposing Chromastone underneath. Tetrax then gave Chromastone a crystal, which he absorbed and then immediately flew off into space (much to the surprise of Ben). Tetrax reveals that Chromastone is the only one who can use the crystal (which serves as back-up for Petropia & its people) to restore his homeworld & its people. It is later revealed that the Chromastone released by Tetrax is a genetic back-up of Sugilite, the Guardian of Petropia. Sugilite's genetic back-up is destroyed by Vilgax, but gives Ben the back-up crystal to finish reviving Petropia's people. Using Diamondhead, Ben revives the Petrosapiens. This also revives the original Sugilite, who reveals to Ben that Chromastone still remains within the Codon Stream and is accessible again in the Omnitrix.

First Transformation
Ben first transformed into Chromastone in "All That Glitters" when fighting a horde of zombified schoolgirls. Chromastone was the first alien to be shown on the Omnitrix, then Echo Echo, and then Swampfire.

Abilities
Chromastone is made from an extremely durable silicon-based crystal, and is nearly invincible. He can absorb lasers and light beams, and fire them out at his own free will. An example of his ability is when he creates powerful electrical energy and projects it. Energy-based weapons are useless against Chromastone, as he simply absorbs them. He also has notably high strength. Suglite, the first non-Omnitrix Crystalsapien shown so far, has been shown as being able to fly, but Ben has not been shown yet to be able to access this ability.





Based On
Chromastone is probably based on Diamondhead and Eon as he can manipulate energy and is made of a crystalline material similar to Diamondhead. Chromastone is a living crystal composed of nearly indestructible silcon compounds. He may also be based on Benvicktor due to his ability to absorb and redirect energy. It is later revealed that the Crystalsapien that the DNA sample for the Codon Stream was taken from was Sugilite, the Guardian of Petropia (the homeworld of Diamondhead) and its people.

Planet
Chromastone is a Crystalsapien from the planet MorOtesi.

Trivia

 * Chromastone's name comes from the words Chroma (meaning Color in Latin) and Stone (meaning Rock). So, translated, his name would mean 'Color rock', referring to his powers.
