Fusion concept: A round Gem and an upside down tear drop shaped Gem with Gems in the same place. They fuse and call themselves “!”. It has no verbal sound, but the same energy as “????” where you can just feel it.
In other news, I’m working on my actual job and tired. Update coming eventually. Not abandoning.
This fusion stands for absolute Justice and Truth. He can be a little too blunt that he might not listen to reasons other than his own. Nkosi has a very cheerfully eccentric personality that causes him to yell out whatever he feels that moment when battling his enemies.
Kek gives confidence boost for Rishid. And in return, Rishid gives him the support to be a good person. However, both can be blinded by the pursue of justice.
Steven + Pearl + Amethyst = Herkimer Diamond (Herkimer Quartz) Or Herk for short
Physical Description:
”Herkimer diamonds are not actually diamonds, but double-terminated quartz crystals discovered within exposed outcrops of dolomite in and around Herkimer County, New York and the Mohawk River Valley.[1][2] The “diamond” in their name is due to both their clarity and natural faceting - crystals possess double termination points and 18 total faces (six on each point, six around the center).”
“This mineral owes its name to Herkimer County, New York, USA, the principal place where it is found. The small, double-terminated crystals are short and stubby, formed in a hard rock matrix giving them their strength. They may be exceptionally clear and colorless, or contain rainbow inclusions, air bubbles, or black carbon deposits. A small percentage of these crystals contain enhydro inclusions of water. Some are smoky rather than clear, and similar-looking crystals have been found at other sites, but generally do not have the same hardness or high gloss of genuine Herkimer Diamond”
Metaphysical Properties/Meaning:
“Herkimer Quartz “Diamonds” are the high energy seekers of the crystal world. Unusually transparent with a brilliant sparkle, they manifest pure, solid Light and are powerful amplifiers of spiritual energy. As perfect conduits of the universal Life Force, they are exceptional healing crystals, and are used in meditations, dream and vision work, and advanced spiritualization applications.
Herkimer Diamonds are the most powerful of all Quartz crystals. Being doubly terminated, they have the ability to not only transmit their own energies, but to receive spiritual energy and to amplify and focus it intently. They are reported to be harder than all other Quartz, giving them the strength and durability to handle difficult challenges beyond the scope of other Quartz crystals. What they lack in physical size, they more than make up for in spirit energy.”

My Thoughts:
I love the idea of this being the gemstone for a Steven/Pearl/Amethyst fusion. It’s the hardest variety of a quartz, and even given the misnomer of a diamond, which Steven actually is. It also has similar qualities as the fusions within this fusion. It can have rainbow coloration, just like Rainbow Quartz and and Opal, or it can have a smokey effect, like Smokey Quartz. They’re multi-faceted, just as the you would expect this fusion’s personality to be, since they’re a combination of 3 unique gems who have experienced major growth and have all had to unlearn the inferiority complex they had developed and learn to be strong in their own way in order to overcome obstacles and find their true strengths and gain confidence in themselves. You would expect such a gem to be wise, perhaps even clairvoyant, which is one of this stone’s metaphysical properties - to enable and boost clairvoyancy. And the other metaphysical uses and properties of the stone align with many of Steven’s powers, “healing... dream and vision work” ring a bell?
In terms of their appearance, I don’t have a fully fleshed out design but I think they’d:
be giant gem, maybe slightly smaller than Alexandrite?
have 5 eyes. Each of the fusions within this fusion have 4 eyes, and since I think this fusion could have clairvoyance, it would make sense
have full lips and unruly hair - all of Amethyst’s fusions do.
be pretty buff, given their size and quartz/diamond strength
have a semi-pointy nose, not like peral’s but more like Rainbow’s
have two upper limbs like smokey’s left limb (1 upper arm branching into 2 forearms and hands) and two normal lower limbs. All are buff, as are their legs.
have this haircut:
So I guess what I’m basicallydescribing is
but with the additional arms and eyes, a different outfit, and white//rainbow/smokey color scheme.
Also, their weapon?
a shielded crossbow, but obviously with a sheild similar to steven’s and more floral/thorn and/or star-shaped elements in the design of the crossbow itself
So, thoughts/comments/ideas/(constuctive) criticism? Also, feel free to build on this idea in the comments or reblogs! Also, feel free to draw them! I’d love to see concept art for them, but I’m not too artistically skilled myself.
