Quartzes

"You have to fix this!" This article is a stub. Help out the Steven Universe Wiki by expanding it!

Quartzes are a broad collection of Gems cuts that serve as the primary soldiers of Homeworld's Caste System. Some Quartzes are higher ranking than others, being described as "elite" or holding commander positions while the majority mantains a common soldier ranking.

Physical Characteristics

Quarztes are much larger than most other types of gems, they also have very broad shoulders and a intimidating muscular build. While their exact height can vary depending on how well they formed when they were incubating in the ground, most quartzes appear to be the same height as each other, with variations of this standard height being very rare. Quartzes (excluding Agates) have some of the longest and thickest hair of any gem. Their hair colour is often a very pale tone of the colour of their gem, although some have dark brown hair.

All Homeworld Quartzes wear the standard Homeworld uniform, while quartzes with a more managerial position, such as Agates, wear an additional shawl and boots. Decorated Quartzes, such as Jasper, can also wear a cape over their uniform, though this isn't actually a part of their physical form

When Corrupted, Quartz gems take the form of a giant eyeless wolf-like beast. They have a fur mane which extends down their backs and covers their tale, and can have a number of horns on their head. They also develop patterns on their bodies resembling those found on their real life Gemstones.

Agates

Agates hold a position of authority slightly higher than other Quartzes. They appear to serve as a form of manager for groups of other types of Quartzes, keeping them in line and ensuring that they perform their duties. So far, Holly Blue Agate is the only one of the Agates shown. She is in charge of a group of Quartz soldiers and manages Pink Diamond's Zoo. Other types of Agates have been mentioned such as:

• Crazy Lace Agate - An Agate who was originally a member of the Crystal Gems.
• Pink Diamond's Agates - Agates who used to belong to Pink Diamond, they were her bodyguards during the Rebellion, first mentioned by Blue Zircon in "The Trial".
• Yellow Diamond's Agates - Agates who reside in one of Yellow Diamond's Asteroid Mines and first mentioned by Rhodonite in "Your Mother and Mine".

Amethysts

Amethysts are purple colored Quartzes, most notably produced on Earth's Prime Kindergarten for Pink Diamond. Besides Amethyst 8XM, the Amethysts from Earth were stationed at Pink Diamond's Zoo thousands of years later, now serving Blue Diamond and are commanded by Holly Blue Agate due to the "shattering" of Pink. Like Amethyst 8XM, these Amethysts share a laid back and comedic personality. 

History

Four Amethysts appear in "Gem Heist" at Pink Diamond's Zoo; two of them are in charge of guarding the door in the Zoo's cargo bay. The two Amethysts tease the Crystal Gems when they land on the Zoo, resulting in a scolding from Holly Blue Agate. Later in "Gem Heist," another pair of Amethysts send Steven into the Zoo's tunnel, one with a square-faceted gemstone.

In "The Zoo," several Amethysts are seen entering the boundaries of Pink Diamond's Zoo to console the heartbroken Zoomans. One Amethyst later angrily informs Greg and Steven of the trouble they are in.

In "That Will Be All", this turns out to be a prank by Amethyst and the many other Homeworld Quartz guards she has met (whom she refers to collectively as "the Famethyst"), three of which having been formed right above her. These Amethysts inform her of her serial number being Facet-5 Cut-8XM. Among the Amethysts and Jaspers are two defective Gems: "Skinny", a tall and skinny Jasper, and Carnelian, shorter than most Quartzes.

In "Now We're Only Falling Apart", numerous Amethysts are shown emerging out of the Prime Kindergarten in a flashback from Pearl.

In "Together Alone", several Amethysts and Jaspers are shown in the crowd of Quartz Gems dancing alongside the Crystal Gems' Amethyst during the Era 3 Ball.

"Together Alone"

Several Amethysts attend the Era 3 ball, seen dancing along with several Jaspers.

Jaspers

Jaspers are a broad variety of Quartz soldiers that vary in color, such as Biggs Jasper and the Snow Monster. The famous Jasper describes her cut as never giving up and always getting what they want. 

"That Will Be All"

Several Jaspers from the Beta Kindergarten debuted in That Will Be All. Like the Amethysts, they originally belonged to Pink Diamond but now served Blue. Despite their Gem type, they are all considered members of The Famethyst.

Trivia

• All Amethysts are voiced by Michaela Dietz (who voices the Crystal Gems' Amethyst); all Jaspers and the defective Carnelian are voiced by Kimberly Brooks (who also voices Jasper).
• So far, it is true that Gems of the same gemstone (with the exception of the Diamonds) also share the same voice, albeit with some differences in tone. Their appearances are also nearly identical, excluding gemstone placement and details such as hair length and style, skin tone and patterning in the case of Jaspers.
  • Both Carnelian and "Skinny" are voiced by Kimberly Brooks despite being two different types of quartz, suggesting different Gems may share the same voice actor.
  • So far, Jaspers are the only type of Quartz who are shown to normally have patterns on their skin, although all quartzes have patterns when corrupted.
