Weapon

Polearm

A relatively light weapon made for swift attacks. As majestic as it is, Leuco hasn't used it for centuries, meaning her fighting skills are rusty. Still good for intimidating others, though!

Trivia

• Her gemstone placement as well as mental injury represents a popular trope- "think no evil"
• Her weapon and secondary accessories are inspired by sun/daytime

story & relations

Being the oldest living garnet out there, Leuco witnessed almost everything gem history has to offer. As the first aristocrat, her job has always been comparing and planning important decisions for the empire's future, reasoning with her empress what shall be done or not. Her wise words earned her the title of "the prime counselor of fate".

Besides her fellow counselors, diamonds and a few exceptionally significant individuals, Leuco is a reserved individual. Casually chatting with her is just as rare as speaking to White Diamond herself. Leuco's mind is usually too occupied by mediating, managing White's subjects, finishing prism-related duties, overseeing the empire's sapphire population, and so on.

Lately, she's been also thinking about her council's past, only to be reminded how little she actually remembers. While Leuco knows this is no coincidence, she doesn't have the strength nor determination to question it loudly. As her dearest, second oldest "sister" would say: "Certain voices shall never be heard."

Relations

Some Star Sapphire

What sapphire again...?

Garnet 4EV

. . . . . .Enjoy your stay. Good luck out there.

Moissanite

It is best not to think about that... -creature. It rightfully does not belong to our modern society, despite some believing otherwise. My mind is set in stone, they DID the unspeakable. (What an ironic way to put it)... How do you even know their name?

Counselor Melanite

Bless the mighty counselor Melanite. It is her who oversees the beauty of our world and insures no gem steps out of their line. Her judgmental stare knows when you went too far, delivering punishment in our name. She also assists us dearly by looking after many of our elites... *Sigh* If only she could see the one whose dark silhouette deserves her help against the evil-

Counselor Leuco

Bless the mighty counselor Leuco. It is her who overhears the prayers of our empire and insures no gem spreads harmful ideology against the diamonds. Assisting the flow of correct manners as well as desired education in our subjects is Leuco's goal, preventing unnecessary punishments. She also helps the judge's eye find evidence hidden in the distant rumors... *Sigh* If only she could hear the one whose quiet cries deserve her help against the evil-

Perfect Sapphire

Ah, the perfect one. She was archived away relatively soon. Before leaving, she had told me no harm will be ever done to her. I hope Sapphire's visions are always correct indeed, because that specific future forecast is something I have trouble believing...

Kakortokite 1M19

In the most recent years, her and the hawk eyes have been the emissaries of bad news. None of their messages has brought me joy nor relief. Yet, I understand there is no other way around them.

Leci's right hand

She is one of the few trusted gems helping us shape our present the way we desire. If something unfit for the public enters the main library, it is her confiscating the evidence.

White Diamond

I serve as the lesser mind of future, a pure yet tiny fragment of Radiance's brilliance. With that out of the way... *Salutes* For the glorious empire! Let the light guide our way.

THE Pyrope

Hm, there used to be times she could humble herself around our council, but these have long vanished. Still, as a fellow perfect cut, I relate to the amount of expectation put on her. Luckily, Pyrope handles it well.

THE Hessonite

Yellow court always had a tendency to switch between prism-bearers. What a tragedy Hessonite was the last... For now at least. We will see if my empress changes her mind on that matter.

Light prism

Glorious of an artifact. I still somewhat recall the days we did not have a name for prisms. Glad we chose wisely. It is better than the other name alternative I now utterly despise.

Opinions & details

The diamonds: "The leaders of all, with me as a fragment of the greatest... Yet, I struggle understanding those of pink shades."

Crystal gems: "Better forgotten."

The war: "Not my field of interest."

Cross-gem fusions: "Waste of a question."

Corruption: "Not worth being commented on."

Being a counselor: "It is my duty to preach; I think a brilliant future is ahead of us, like a bright star in the middle of the day."

Garnets: "I am not quite like them, neither of the counselors are. We emerged in times there was no established blueprint of how garnets should act. Luckily, the three of us had enough centuries to learn from those around."

Future: "The only thing that matters."

History: "I wish I could acknowledge its beauty. While my highness and I continuously believe it can be forgotten or rewritten, I am starting to witness that perhaps its core always remains the same... And we fear to admit it."

Regrets: "I regret forgetting why I despise certain gems. With one gem in particular, I recall the reason being especially urgent. I know I had it. In fact, my highness called it reasonable. That is why the moon-... GAH, If only my mind could tell what it was..."

Smiling: "One may correctly assume that White's greatest example of perfection should inherit her smile. And yet, I see no reason to do so."

Meditation: "It helps with sorting thoughts."

Health: "I am little withered, so? As long as there is a future for our empire, I shall never crumble."

Health issues

A long time ago, Leuco underwent an unsuccessful program procedure meant to clean her mind and update her software. As a result, Leuco uncontrollably relives scattered fragments of something resembling memories. These mind fragments can cause anxiety, dissociation as well as hallucinations under extreme conditions. Luckily, meditation seems to temporarily eliminate them.
