Things to Think about
0. All Gems fall under one of four fractions that are ruled by a diamond, Blue diamond, Yellow diamond, Pink diamond and White Diamond.
Of course the Crystal Gems are an exception to the rule.
1. Rubies are the most common gems. Pearls are aids to diamonds but can also be appointed to gems who have done something remarkable making them somewhat more common but also viewed highly.
2. Most Quartz were made on Earth in one of the various kindergartens.
3. Gems are non gender specific although they generally refer to themselves as female.
4. Gems can "fuse" by dancing or making emotional contact. When they fuse they become a new gem. Some stay as the new gem but most only fuse to when a battle.
5. Most gems resemble their gem, in other words, if you are a Ruby (for example) you will most likely have redish colored skin and or hair.
6. Home World Gems tend not to fuse as much unless with a gem of the same type, where as Crystal Gems fuse a lot and with gem they can.
7. Some humans actually know about the Crystal Gems.
8. Gems can get shattered (killed), lose their shape (their physical form getting destroyed but do to having their gem intact they are still alive they just need time to recover, time varies depending on the gem.) They can also get corrupted.
(Lose hope in existence, get to badly injured, fuse with a corrupted gem, there are a few theories as to what causes it.)
9. Gems are made for specific rules.
Pearls are made to fallow orders from their diamond or boss so they have problems thinking for themselves.
Rubies are minor soldiers and scouts, there are so many of them that it doesn't matter if a handful die. They tend to be rash and prone to violence, The ones that are able to think more clearly also have self-esteem issues due to being thought of as just another ruby.
Quartz are constantly being made and actually have varies rankings depending on how well they were crafted. They are under a lot of pressure based from how they were extracted.
Moonstones tend to be considers as healers and are also thought of as somewhat disposable.
They tend not to talk much and focus on work.
New Paradotes are made with "limb enhancer" due to lacking neutral abilities, the use robotics and are sent to take care of kindergartens, teleportation pads, and anything else technical.
Sapphire can see possible outcomes of the future, and are highly regarded. They tend not to handle being wrong well though.
Obsidian are generals, they make very sharp blades thus are very skilled swordsman(woman)
They have a hard time seeing things in any other why than war, everything is about strategy to them.
Onyx are spies and assassin, despite being held in high regards everyone has a hard time trusting them including their own bosses.
They have a hard time dealing with people and showing their true emotions.
Emeralds deal with cultivating areas they help find prime areas for kindergartens and other such areas.
More to come.
