Talk:White Diamond/@comment-24435322-20180724000537

I am guessing that White's aura either exerts mind control or wipes out a Gem's mind entirely. Either would explain White Pearl's demeanor and her having the same voice as her Diamond.

That being said, maybe each individual contribution to the Corrupting Light has a different effect: Yellow's disrupts the physical form, Blue's instills the emotional instability/trauma (since she can influence the emotions of others and disable them), and White's either suppresses or erases higher mental function. Together they leaves Gems in a distorted, feral state.
