Sardonyx

"This is Sardonyx! Coming to you live from the soon-to-be-former Communication Hub! How are y'all doin' tonight?"

"Sardonyx" is the fusion of Garnet and Pearl, who is set to appear in the upcoming third StevenBomb event. She will make her first appearance in "Cry For Help".

Appearance
Sardonyx has dark red skin, much like Garnet. As a fusion, she has four arms and inherits the same locations of her gemstones as her fused cooperators, with her Pearl on her forehead and her Ruby and Sapphire presumably on her lightly-gloved arms. She has peach hair styled into a tetrahedron with very rounded corners. She wears a tailcoat tuxedo with a bow tie. On one pair of arms, she wears white gloves that reach up to her elbows. On her other pair of arms, she wears white gloves that also go up to her elbows but only cover her middle fingers, much like Garnet's gloves. She wears round shades that resemble Alexandrite's shades, but are slightly transparent, which reveals that Sardonyx has four eyes.
