Ponike Curium (pronounced poe-nee-kay kyur-e-um) is a fan-made troll. Her symbol is a lowercase phi (φ), and she is purple on the hemospectrum.

She is more commonly known by her trollian username, tumultuousChemicals , and she types in purple. Every a or o that would normally be in the words she writes get replaced with the symbol @. She enjoys frequently using the phrase, "B@@M!", and uses it whenever a situation allows.

Character Information
The name Ponike is actually a mistranslation of the word "Phoenix", written in Mycenaean Greek. Curium is number 96 on the periodic table, and was named after Marie Curie, the first woman to win a Nobel Prize for her famous research on radioactivity.

As for the latter, Ponike is a huge fan of explosions, chemical reactions, and really chemistry in general. She has a tendency to become impulsive whenever there is something that can explode, or otherwise react violently around her. However, she does regularly perform precise scientific experiments in her laboratory, so she is not without the ability to focus.

The former: Ponike's lusus is a phoenix. Her love for fire and combustion might stem from that fact. It is also appropriate for her to have a phoenix because in Greek, the word phoenix starts with a phi (φ), and in the middle ages, the phoenix was referred to as "the royal bird" or "the purple one", which directly correlates to her rank and color on the hemospectrum.

Overall, she is not very grounded in her thoughts, and she oftentimes is bad at planning because her plans are almost always unrealistic. Although she is very intelligent, her words will sometimes come out as garbled nonsense because of the amount of thoughts she is trying to convey at once (she is much better writing than she is speaking).

When left on her planet alone, she will oftentimes spend days without rest trying to prepare for one experiment. Once she has made her conclusion, she dozes off for a completely random number of hours, or even days, until she has dreamed up something new she can test.
