Malachite

"Malachite" is the fusion of Jasper and Lapis Lazuli that first appeared in "Jail Break".

Appearance
Malachite is massive, nearly equal to Sugilite. She possesses four legs (which are actually arms, but instead function as legs), and two regular arms. She has four eyes and pointed teeth. Her hair is a light mint-green color, and is styled in the shape of a star. Her skin is sea-foam green with dark-green stripes, with a pattern similar to Jasper's. She has two torsos joined together like a centaur. Her upper-torso and arms are longer and more slender, while her lower-torso and four limbs are more muscular. The upper-half of her outfit is dark-green and black, resembling Lapis Lazuli's top, but is solid at the back, with no ribbon. Her lower-half resembles a one-piece swimsuit, and is mostly black with a green V-neck collar that connects to form a Yellow Diamond emblem.

Personality
Due to being a fusion, Malachite's personality is a twisted combination of both Jasper and Lapis' character traits. She is very unstable, acting as if both Gems have independent control over her body. Once formed, she was shown as having Jasper's disdain for the Crystal Gems and wishing to see them destroyed, but Lapis' consciousness was later shown to be the most dominant, as she was able to overpower Jasper's.

Abilities
Malachite possesses standard Gem-abilities, including weapon-summoning, bubbling, shape-shifting, fusion, regeneration, agelessness, and superhuman strength/durability.
