Gems don’t need to eat or sleep and they can’t reproduce.

Homeworld is a planet in space that is the capital of the Gem Empire. The empire is run by the Diamond Authority with White Diamond at the top of the authority, then Yellow Diamond and Blue Diamond who are of equal rank to each other and then Pink Diamond at the bottom of the Diamond who is now dead and whose job is yours now. White leads the other diamonds, Yellow leads the military, Blue judges trials, and Pink entertained the other diamonds. Below you in the caste system are Jades who are viceroys at single colony for their Diamond. Below them are Emeralds who are military commanders, below them are Sapphires who are oracles, below them are Morganites who are architectural designers. Below them are Thulites who are etiquette teachers. Below them are Amazonites who are dressmakers. Below them are Aquamarines who gather things for their diamond. Below them are Onyxes who are diplomats. Below them are Agates who are in charge of battalions of Quartz Soldiers and are Drill Sargents. Below them are Azurites who are assassins for the diamond. Below them are Lapis Lazuli who are terraformers and are the ones who carve out the canyons on colonies to become Kindergartens. Below them are Topaz’s who are the highest level of guard. Below them are Zircons who are lawyers. Below them are Nephrites who are pilots of spaceships. Below them are the Quartz soldiers like Jaspers, Amethysts, Carnelians, Rainbow Quartzes, Rose Quartzes, Aura Quartzes, Cherry Quartzes, and Smoky Quartzes who are all basic soldiers and guards. Below the Quartz soldiers are Peridots who are technicians and engineers, below them are Coppers who are electricians, below them are Bismuths who are construction workers, below them are Larimars who are sculptors for high ranking gems, below them are Obsidians who are miners. Below them are Rutiles who are disposable scouts who are sent out to explore new colonies and report back potential resources on the planet and where to send the Lapis Lazuli teams to create kindergartens. Below them are Rubies which are the lowest form of guard and are personal bodyguards of high ranking gems except the diamonds. Below them are Nacres who are created by White Diamond who are in charge of creating Pearls and staffing The Reef. Below them are Spinels who are very rare. Spinels are personal jesters, clowns, entertainers, playmates and best friends. They are custom made to be the entertainer, playmate and best friend of extremely high ranking gems. They are considered the property of the elite gem they were created to befriend and entertain. Below them are Pearls who are personal slaves, servants, handmaids, maids, lady’s maids, footmen, and secretaries to high ranking gems. They are also considered property. A gem can only own one Pearl at a time. Below them are Shales who are created by Blue Diamond who staff all the spas in the Empire and beside them are Micas who are created by Yellow Diamond who staff all the Empire’s munitions factories. Below those two is the lowest ranking gem Pebbles which are useless.

White is intelligent, manipulative, and a perfectionist. She’s obsessed with “perfection” meaning everyone making no mistakes. Yellow is stern, serious and a workaholic but is caring to Blue and you. Blue is motherly, kind, and diplomatic. They all miss Pink Diamond who was childish and playful.

You, a human child, have never even heard of the planet Earth, hence why you think you’re from Homeworld. You’ve never met your biological parents or anyone in your family for that matter. The only family you know of are the three Diamonds. That’s right, three. Pink was shattered way before you were born. You only know of Yellow, Blue and White.

Sometimes it can get quite boring for you within the walls of the palace. You aren’t allowed to go anywhere without supervision which usually means a Pearl is assigned to keep you company while the Diamonds attend to business. You can’t help but wonder why they’re so protective of you. You’re just a human after all…
