Sapphire

"Sapphire" is a Gem that first appeared in "Jail Break." Currently, she is fused with Ruby, as Garnet.

Appearance
Sapphire has pale blue skin, and slightly lighter hair that covers the upper half of her face. She wears a floor-length dress that is dark blue on the top with a blue skirt with white puffed sleeves and a sky blue pinafore worn over the top. When viewed from below, her dress resembles an open geode. She also wears long white gloves. Her lips and facial structure resemble Garnet's. Her gemstone is on the palm of her right hand and has a triangular facet. We have not yet seen her eyes.

Personality
Not much is known about Sapphire's personality at this time, but it is very clear that she is very compassionate and level-headed. She seems to balance out Ruby's more impulsive personality when they're fused as Garnet. She's shown to hold some intelligence, as she came to the conclusion that Steven was immune to the force field, due to his half-human side almost immediately.

Abilities
Like all Gems, Sapphire can shape-shift, summon a weapon, and retreat to her gemstone to regenerate. Sapphire can fuse with Ruby to form Garnet.

Unique Abilites

 * Super Speed: Despite her long dress, she can travel at a high speed, an ability unmatched by any other Gems.

Ruby
She and Ruby hold a romantic relationship, with Sapphire giving a kiss onto Ruby's face when they were reunited. This has also been confirmed by one of the storyboard artists, Joe Johnston.

Steven Universe
Memories of Steven that come from Garnet remain with Sapphire, as she was able to recognize him and the reason behind his ability to open her cell very quickly in "Jail Break." Garnet's intent was to introduce Ruby and Sapphire to Steven on his birthday. She, as with Ruby, cares for Steven greatly, and when Steven asked if he made a good first impression, Garnet assured him that both Ruby and Sapphire had already loved him.

Crystal Gems
Pearl and Amethyst have been aware of Garnet's true identities for several millennia. Their reception of those two while separated remains unknown.

Trivia

 * She is known to sing, as displayed in "Jail Break."
 * The song, that she sings from her jail cell, shares the same melody as Garnet's song, "Stronger Than You."
 * With what had been shown of other fusions and their tendency to combine numbers of body parts (e.g. Opal's four arms and Sugilite's five eyes), it is possible that Sapphire has only one eye.
 * Assuming that the duo's eyes were evenly distributed when forming Garnet, it is likely that her third eye is the combination of the colors of Ruby and Sapphire's remaining eyes. (Red + Blue = Purple.)
 * It's possible that Sapphire has 'Future Vision', because when Ruby was looking for Sapphire, she complained about 'not being able to see', and it was confirmed that she was used to having two kinds of sight, implying Future Vision and normal sight. Since Ruby doesn't appear to posses the Future Vision, it's likely that Sapphire has some form of it.
 * Sapphire does appear to have legs, as depicted in artwork by the show's creator.
 * Sapphire, along with Ruby, have neither diamonds nor stars on their outfits.
 * Sapphire is the second Gem (after Rose Quartz) to wear a long dress that obscures their legs.
