Pink Tourmaline is more curious and energetic than the average tourmaline, but she's more than capable of fufilling her assigned role. She works under Pink Diamond, but due to the lack of a colony at the time, she more or less explored the base around her when she could. She adores her diamond just like any other gem, willing to lay down her life for Homeworld and the colony. A loyal gem, as she should be.

Tourmaline has a slightly slimmer version of a traditional quartz soldier body, with thick hands and legs to better help endure what may exist on other planets. She is roughly the same height as a pearl, slightly shorter at full height. She has messy hair that's a light pink in hue and falls down to just beneath her waist. Her gem is located on her right upper arm.

Pink overall has a very happy aura around her. She's energetic, curious, and determined to discover the unknown. She can be oblivious at times, but she swears to be a loyal companion to those she calls her friends.


HISTORY

It all started the day she was made. As a gem made on homeworld, she was already born to serve under her most radiant of diamonds, Pink Diamond. A dimond was required to have a surplus of gems from every sector, whether the gems would actually be used or not was up to the diamond. Tourmalines are meant to serach for planets to colonize, but since Pink was yet to be permitted to obtain her own colony, tourmalines were assigned to be a slightly weaker version of quartz soldiers. Pink tourmaline was posted for guard duty at the palanquin, similar to a pearl. If Pink wasn't occupied with admiring her diamond, she'll explore the area she's currently in, her curiousity was still a part of her nature. When the day comes that Pink is finally going to be granted a colony, Yellow and Blue Diamond gather their best gems for the job of investigating Earth, a potential location for Pink. With Pink's closest Tourmaline selected with several other gems, she joins the crew of OPA-18-5-7 to see if this planet is compatible with the colony guidelines. The day of the ships' lauch, Tourmaline takes one last look at the kindergarten she came from. In doing so, she discovers an unknown gem, Jet. With the disfigured arms, it was likely that if Pink were to turn her in that Jet would be shattered. Never enjoying the concept of shattering, but loving the concept of a precious life, Pink snuck Jet onto the ship in hopes of leading her to freedom. The crew is currently unaware of their secret passenger, and Pink intends to keep it that way.

ABILITIES

Pink appears to be skilled when it comes to indentifying creatures, as she reads whatever she can about lifeforms in the gem archives. And due to her frequent outings at homebase, she has developed a rather incredible endurance, even when compared to other gems, it's impressive to say the least. She also has a great sense of detail, most likely due to observing everything around her when she had to stay in one place.

Stilbite

Sodalite

Benitoite

Benitoite and Pink are mainly acquaintances, but that doesn't mean Pink isn't afraid to drag her along on her avdentures! Benitote tries to keep an eye out for Pink, but she's mainly just a giant pushover...

Jet

Jet and Pink met at the kindergarten on Homeworld, where Pink discovered Jet. Pink sees herself as a sworn protector of Jet, as long as Jet isn't found on the ship, everything will be fine! .....Right?

• Tourmaline stones are known for having the largest variety of colors!
• Tourmaline is the birthstone for October!
• The Tourmaline stones can fascinatingly gain an electrical charge when warmed by heat or friction from rubbing, thus inspiring Tourmaline's electric capabilities! (Like the energy discs!)
• Pink Tourmaline is often associated with positive vibes, as shown from Pink's personality!
• Pink Tourmaline is also known for helping heal those suffering from heartbreak or abuse, most likely why Pink so easily took pity on Jet!
