His outfit consists of a black suit and a blue shirt with his white tie out, and black leather gloves. He also wears a wristwatch on his left wrist. On the lapel of his jacket, there is a silver cross on a small chain by the left pocket.

Jolly is a ruthless man who has little regard for others and their feelings. He speaks in a slow and relaxed voice, but his words are often mocking, if not downright hurtful. Because of his cold-hearted, condescending attitude, almost everyone on Regalo avoids him and looks at him as the very incarnation of terror. Jolly himself seems to be fine with people avoiding him, and spends most of his time alone in his laboratory, conducting alchemy experiments. He avoids the other Major Arcana holders at meals, claiming he is exempt from Mondo 's rule about the family eating together [2] . When interacting with others, Jolly greatly enjoys teasing and pushing their buttons. He sometimes creates shady potions which cause people to act abnormal (make animal noises, speak their mind in terrifying detail and so on).
Because of his childhood, Jolly is very loyal to Mondo and prioritises him above all else. Most of his experiments are devoted to helping Mondo ease the burden of his Arcana; Jolly stops at nothing to achieve his goal, even going to the extent of creating a homunculus, experimenting on humans like Pace , Debito and Luca to force contracts with Tarocco , and using Felicità as a tool to save Mondo. Jolly's motto is "what can be used, should be used" and he has no restraint in taking Luca's alchemy ingredients for his own experiments. He is an atheist [3] and mostly views the world through theories [4] .
Jolly suffers from bad seasickness, so he avoids boarding ships by any means. He enjoys sweet food and dislikes alcohol, because it clouds the clarity of his mind. He also claims to like storms, especially spring storms, because they feel like something is about to begin [5] .

Land of the Lustrous

He first appears as a giant slug with an equally large club-shaped spiny shell. In this form, he is enormous, larger than the Lunarians and taking up a lot of space on their sunspot platform to the point that his movement tips the entire platform. He is black with many green eyes dotting the length of his body. His face also has two circular green eyes and a small triangular mouth. Phosphophyllite described him as "cute" in this form.
His "true form" is smaller and takes a more humanoid appearance with a paleish grey complexion with sharp, feminine-looking green eyes.

He has multiple long tendrils protruding from this body which are capable of moving and fighting.

He is loyal to his species and was eager to use Phos as bait without much concern in order to rescue his family and friends.

Land of the Lustrous

Aechmea is a tall male Lunarian with slim eyes, light features and a presumably light cream color scheme with a mole under his left eye. His clothing and hairstyle vary and he seems to be able to change them at will without physically doing anything. He first appears dressed in Buddhist-style clothing, similar to the other Lunarians , and has long earlobes. During their dinner with Phos , he wears a Western-style suit, and has shorter earlobes. Later, he appears with an unbuttoned dress shirt, round glasses, and rather prominent rabbit ears.

He appears to have a calmer demeanour, but is very weary of the eternal life the Lunarians possess.
He is extremely intent on having Kongo pray for the Lunarians in order to allow them to pass on, viewing the 'eternity with the restless nature of humans' to be a 'terrible curse.' To achieve this, he is prepared to go to great lengths. Over abducting gems and grinding them into dust, he displays no remorse, showing he can be very cruel. Aside from that, he generally behaves politely.
After so long of failing to persuade Kongo , he has become desperate and prone to moping. He appears to have some degree to self-loathing, calling the Lunarians, including himself, 'ghosts of garbage', and being ashamed of his real name, leading Phos to describe him as a 'complex guy.' However, he retains some hope that Phos will save them.
According to other Lunarians, he gets drunk easily.
As Phos and the other Gems speak with more Lunarians, they discover that Aechmea also has a controlling personality. He appears to be used to getting what he wants, which extends to controlling the names and roles of each of the Lunarians although they appear to possess the capacity of making remarks about him, although not necessarily to his face.
Aechmea has displayed aggressive manipulation tactics that he may or may not be aware of. This has included terrifying others into submission, to the degree that some Lunarians avoid making him upset altogether. This has also been displayed between Aechmea and Cairngorm, in which Aechmea nearly transforms into a beast form upon Cairngorm returning from getting Phos, Padparadscha, and Yellow Diamond from Earth.
However, he seems to be quite aware of his charismatic manipulative tendencies, mainly in the sense that he withholds information in order for his own goals to be reached and the other party thinking that they are assisting, despite it possibly meaning the other party will ultimately reach a bad end.

When they start working as a chef, in addition to their blindfold, Alexandrite ties their hair in a ponytail and wears a chef's simple jacket. During the Invasion Arc's invasion, Alexandrite wore a vertical striped leotard with stripe-less bishop sleeves that had a long, see-through skirt over the outfit with a large visor that covered their eyes and nose. Alexandrite also had a big collar around their neck with a long chain at the back that had a large ball which was held by Benitoite . After becoming a lunarian, Alexandrite goes back to using cooking attire, has their hair tied in a ponytail, they are seen wearing a shirt with medium puffy sleeves and a kitchen apron. As of Chapter 95 Alexandrite has become a Lunarian and therefore has lost their unique turquoise color, and their unique red color transformation. End of spoiler. Personality [ ] Alex is studious, especially in terms of information and literature relating to The Lunarians. They will pester the other Gems for details regarding any fights or encounters with the Lunarians, especially if there is a new type of Lunarian. When referred to with honorifics, they hate being called Alex-san, preferring the cuter Alex-chan. This is changed to Alexi or Lexi in the official English translation. It's said that this attitude of Alex is different from the one they had before Chrysoberyl was taken. When Red Alex, they simply become obsessed with cutting down anything they consider an enemy, passing out once the job is finished. In this state, they don't speak, only screaming out bellowing war cries. Manga Spoiler Later it is revealed that they enjoy learning about other things they become interested in, pursuing cooking once they no longer hold any animosity towards Lunarians and by extension their attachment to Chrysoberyl. Their condition does not go away, however, but targets (earth) gems instead of Lunarians. End of spoiler. Abilities [ ] Alexandrite has a berserker mode that has a chance of activating when gazing at Lunarians. Alex is forbidden from looking at or engaging with the Lunarians because of this. In this state, their hair transitions from green to indigo to red and they go into a battle frenzy, eventually collapsing before returning to their default personality. However, Alex occasionally just passes out upon viewing Lunarians. Alex themself compares this phenomenon to a roulette wheel. Manga Spoiler It is later they learn that this is caused by the light Lunarians emit entering their eyes and reflecting inside their body, causing them to transform when it gets deep inside their chest. Whether they turn red or pass out depends on the angle it enters their body, passing out when it doesn't quite reach. The light can be blocked with special glasses they begin wearing on the Moon. End of spoiler. Character Profiles [ ] Vol 3: Lunarian research maniac. Prefers to be called Alexi. Vol 4: Not just a Lunarian research enthusiast. There is a secret behind the mania. Vol 5: Has a surprising reason for becoming a Lunarian research enthusiast. Manga Spoiler Vol 7: Double Personality.

Vol. 10: Now we'll learn the cause of their two personalities. Vol. 11: Will show you what an 8.5 can really do. End of spoiler. Story [ ] Blue Alexandrite collects information from the Gems that fight The Lunarians. When Phosphophyllite was eaten by a slug and integrated into the shell, Alex joined the other Gems in pulling the shell out from the pond and collecting Phosphophyllite's fragments. Alex joined the other Gems in searching for Phos when they were lost in the sea. They question them about Lunarians in the anime. After the Amethyst Twins are recovered from the sapphire Lunarian trap, they are officially introduced questioning the Amethyst Twins. They joined the winter hibernation like the other Gems. When Shiro , a large Moon Person creature, appeared and started chasing Diamond , they both ran past Alex who was about to take a nap. Bort and Phos then ran past Alex in the other direction but Alex stopped them. When a part of Shiro attacked Phos, they urged Alex to pick up their sword and fight back. Alex tried to refuse since they were forbidden from doing so, but finally relented given the urgency of the situation. Upon picking up the sword and looking at Shiro, Alex's berserk mode manifested and they quickly dispatched Shiro, much to the surprise of Phos. Alex also dispatched the other parts of Shiro that were fighting Bort before finally collapsing. When Phos wanted to learn more about The Lunarians, Alex taught the younger Gem about the different types of Lunarians. Phos asked Alex if they liked The Lunarians, to which they said no, explaining that their investigation of The Lunarians is done in order to fix their own condition. They tell Phos that before the younger Gem was born, The Lunarians took Alex's partner, Chrysoberyl , away. Alex keeps the Lunarians in mind every day in order to remember the hatred they have for them. Manga Spoiler They lost an original drawing of the Lunarians while recovering material from the library, and Phos helped them find it again. Along with Euclase and Jade , they noticed Phos' similarities with Lapis Lazuli . Alex is convinced to go to the Moon, but must have a blindfold on their eyes so as to not be changed to Red Alex. Upon learning that all abducted Gems have been ground to powder, they fall to their knees, fracturing and breaking out of shock and grief. Alex remains on the Moon, learning that it is possible to remove the condition and stay permanently red. Benitoite tells them they can't go through with it, saying it would be too dangerous, but Alex says that if they need someone to control them, it should be Benito. Ultimately, Alexandrite does not go through with the operation, but Benito is made their unwilling caretaker. They bond with Barbata over food, eventually working in a restaurant for the Lunarians (with Benito), which is popular enough for the Lunarians to want to eat there for their "final meal". Alexandrite agrees to go with Phos back to Earth to destroy the Gems, claiming that they no longer harbor resentment towards Lunarians nor care much about Chrysoberyl. They drag Benitoite along. Alex declares they will go down first to fight upon their arrival to Earth, before promptly removing their eyewear. They happen to look back and immediately pass out as a result. They rise up after transforming, shattering gems left and right while Benito ineffectually holds onto the leash. They shatter nearly every gem in the school but are accidentally beheaded by Benito, who is shattered by Alex's detached head colliding with theirs. Alexandrite is restored like all the other Gems and is changed into a Lunarian. End of spoiler. Relationships [ ] Phosphophyllite [ ] After Phos gained their golden arms and became capable of combat, Alexandrite praised the Gem's keen observation and commented that they've changed, thinking that the prior Phos was always bragging and exaggerating everything. Manga Spoiler Alex also chooses to go to the Moon with Phos and offers to help with returning to Earth. They offer matter of fact details. End of spoiler. Bort [ ] Bort thinks the blue Alex is the useless one, and the red Alex is uncontrollable. Manga Spoiler Chrysoberyl [ ] It's assumed they were very close with their partner, Chrysoberyl , as others have mentioned how greatly losing Chrysoberyl affected Alex. Alex's demeanour was different before their loss, and it's possible that the red side developed as a cause of this. Their obsession with Lunarians also stems from losing Chrysoberyl, Alex remarking that thinking about Lunarians reminds them of why they hate Lunarians so much and to continue on with their research. However this changes on the Moon where after 220 years, Alex mentions they have forgotten about Chrysoberyl and have seen that the Lunarians aren't as bad as previously thought. Benitoite [ ] Alex seems to have a lot of trust in Benitoite as they demand that Benitoite be their handler and assistant on the Moon. Benitoite can be seen being a host at Alex's restaurant. However, Alex orders and pushes Benitoite around so it isn't a very mutual relationship. End of spoiler. Other Gems [ ] Like how other Gems treat each other, it can be assumed that Alexandrite had a nice relationship with their other siblings, often referred to as aniki (兄貴, ' brother/bro ') by them. However recently they've become more detached and willing to help Phos destroy the Earth Gems by triggering their berserk mode, though Alex does tell them that they will be repairing them all after it's over. Gem Info [ ] Mineral: Oxide Chemistry: BeAl 2 O 4 Color: Bluish green in daylight, purplish-red in incandescent light Often described by gem aficionados as “emerald by day, ruby by night,” alexandrite is the very rare color-changing variety of the mineral chrysoberyl named after Czar Alexander II of Russia. Chrysoberyl is the third-hardest frequently encountered natural gemstone and lies at 8.5 on the hardness scale, between corundum (9) and topaz (8). Ordinary chrysoberyl is yellowish-green and transparent to translucent. When the mineral exhibits good pale green to yellow color and is transparent, then it is used as a gemstone. The three main varieties of chrysoberyl are ordinary yellow-to-green chrysoberyl, cat's eye or cymophane, and alexandrite. The alexandrite variety displays a color change (alexandrite effect) dependent upon the nature of ambient lighting. Alexandrite effect is the phenomenon of an observed color change from greenish to reddish with a change in source illumination. Alexandrite results from small scale replacement of aluminium by chromium ions in the crystal structure, which causes intense absorption of light over a narrow range of wavelengths in the yellow region (580 nm) of the visible light spectrum. Because human vision is more sensitive to light in the green spectrum and the red spectrum, alexandrite appears greenish in daylight where a full spectrum of visible light is present and reddish in incandescent light which emits less green and blue spectrum. This color change is independent of any change of hue with viewing direction through the crystal that would arise from pleochroism. rough alexandrite polished alexandrite Alexandrite is a birthstone for June, along with pearl and moonstone. Alexandrite is also the gem for the 55th wedding anniversary. Source: Wikipedia | GIA Quote [ ] " What was that...? I want it alive...! - Alexandrite, about "Shiro" . ”月人のことを毎日考えて 新鮮な憎しみを 忘れないためよ” " I think about the Lunarians everyday so I won't forget the fresh feeling of hatred I have for them. " - Alexandrite when asked by Phos if they like the Lunarians . Trivia [ ] Alex's two modes and the accompanying color change to their hair is a reference to the fact that alexandrite in real life changes colors depending on lighting conditions. Alexandrite is the only gem who has a condition activated by interacting with another species. Gallery [ ] Alexandrite from the cover of the promo for the 2017 anime.

Land of the Lustrous

Amethyst has a purple color scheme and wears either the winter or summer uniform depending on the season. They also wear standard black shoes and knee-high socks but no gloves. Their hair is long, braided and styled to cover one of their eyes. Initially, Eighty-Four covers their right eye, and Thirty-Three covers their left eye. They later switch, then Eighty-Four switches again to deceive Phosphophyllite and take Thirty-Three's place.

Manga Spoiler In the most recent chapters, Amethyst Eighty-four changed their hair into a medium cut bob hairstyle. Eighty-Four's hair is now parted down the middle with a hairband braid. Amethyst Eighty-four's usually outfits where with loose-fitting lab coats, wide-legged pants and low pointed-toe boots with stiletto heels. Thirty-Three kept their usually haircut and design. End of spoiler. Personality [ ] The twins work in tandem for a lot of things, often talking at the same time or finishing each other's sentences. It seems that the two rely on each other, but one of them states that they wish to be more independent, since if the Lunarians were to come for them, they'd would both be taken away. Thirty-Three was initially unsure about taking care of Phosphophyllite , but when Eighty-Four joined them, they both became confident. They are kind and a bit silly, sometimes teasing other Gems like Phos. Together, they seem like they can be occasionally cocky and confident in their abilities. However, they are very caring and tend to put others' well-being first. Amethyst 84 has learned to become more of their own individual and they serve as an assistant scientist on the moon. They seem to be highly interested in more of the psychological aspects in the science field, and have addressed that on Earth, the Gems have never received the proper treatment for the amount of trauma they experience, noting it especially with Yellow Diamond who is the oldest and has been through the most. Amethyst 33 has recently learned to cope with their twin leaving, and believes after 200 years that they are alright. They think 84 is doing alright as well, and still feels connected to them. Story [ ] The Amethyst twins are side characters though they have a few prominent roles in the story. They were first formally introduced when Kongo-sensei had Phosphophyllite team up with them in order to gain experience with swordplay. During patrols together, they teased Phos with their carefree attitude. When a sunspot finally appears before the trio, the twins wanted to show off their fighting prowess to Phos. They skillfully cut down many Lunarians, but became careless when the central Moon Person was revealed to be a new type with a teeth trap made from Sapphire . The twins were caught and shattered while Phos helplessly looked on, paralyzed with fear. Bort ran to the scene and defeated the trap, freeing the twins whose pieces were quickly collected by the other Gems. Later that night, after the Amethyst twins were reassembled by Rutile , they found Phos kneeling and bowing down, apologizing to the twins for their inability to act. The twins reassured Phos and apologized instead, claiming that it was their own boastfulness that made them careless. When Phos gained new gold arms and became stronger, the roles of the previous incident were reversed and Phos showed off their new strength to the twins, easily handling a Sunspot and defeating the Lunarians. The twins became very impressed and hugged Phos, saying that the new, stronger Phos is nothing like the old one. After Shiro appears and was split into puppies, most of the Gems including the Amethyst twins spent the day hunting and collecting them. In the anime, both twins were shown chasing after the same puppy, causing them to bump into each other. When Phos wanted to learn more about the Lunarians, they grabbed and held a Moon Person during an attack and tried to communicate with it. The Amethyst twins dispatched the rest and eventually defeated the one held by Phos as well, unaware of the younger Gem's intentions and believing Phos needed help. (In the anime, it was Cinnabar who defeated them.) tly to their stories. While Eighty-Four slept, Thirty-Three expressed their concerns about both of them being so close together, as they would both be taken away by the Lunarians rather than having one be saved. Phos tempted the Gem into going to the Moon, both of them not knowing that the remaining twin was not truly asleep and heard everything. One of the twins ends up accompanying Phos to the Moon. At first, it appeared to be Thirty-Three, but it was in fact Eighty-Four masquerading as their twin in order to take their place on the Moon. Eighty-Four travels to the Moon with Phos and the other Gems, and seems to be the one of the first ones to adjust well to the Moon and Lunarians. They are taught science under Barbata and seem to make it far in this aspect, even changing their hair and clothing style to reflect their new outlook. Eighty-Four attends to Yellow Diamond when Yellow Diamond repeatedly wakes up and seems to be in hysterics. They express some level of wanting to become a Lunarian like some of the other Gems, and attempt to coax Cairngorm into getting information on it from Aechmea . Eighty-Four is present upon Phos's return to the Moon. Thirty-Three is broken in the chaos of Phos's invasion of Earth. Eighty-Four manages to build a Gem to Lunarian Transformation Device, successfully changing Gems into Lunarians. They turn themselves into a Lunarian. Thirty-Three's fate is currently unknown, but is presumed to have joined the other Gems to become a Lunarian. End of spoiler. Relationships [ ] During the beginning, Amethyst Thirty-Three states that they never spoke much to Phos before the younger gem was ready for combat. They enjoyed teasing Phos, causing the younger Gem to become tense when stating that the place they're assigned to patrol is a common place for Lunarians to show. During patrol training, the twins would give false alarms to Phos by expressing astonishment at passing animals. However, they are very kind as well, often speaking in a soft, slow manner. When they were shattered by the Lunarians and Phos was unable to fight back, Phos asked for their forgiveness but they apologized instead and claimed it was their own fault for being careless and trying to show off. Later, when Phos gained their gold arms, the younger Gem fought the Lunarians single-handedly in front of the twins, causing the two to hug Phos in admiration. Based on how other Gems treated each other, it can be assumed that Amethyst has a friendly relationship with the other Gems and also like and trust their sensei . Gem Info [ ] Mineral: Quartz Chemistry: SiO 2 Color: Purple, violet Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz, and owes its violet color to irradiation, iron impurities (in some cases in conjunction with transition element impurities), and the presence of trace elements, which result in complex crystal lattice substitutions. The hardness of the mineral is the same as quartz, thus it is suitable for use in jewelry. The name comes from the Ancient Greek ἀ a- ("not") and μέθυστοςméthystos ("intoxicated"), a reference to the belief that the stone protected its owner from drunkenness. Amethyst is the birthstone for February and the gem for the 6th and 17th wedding anniversaries. Rough amethyst. Polished amethyst. Trivia [ ] In original Japanese version, Amethyst's nicknames are written as 'Eighty-Four' and 'Thirty-Three' as English words in katakana. The nicknames are a reference to Japan Law twinning, a type of gemstone twinning. Twinning is when separate gemstones grow conjoined together. This can happen in different patterns called Laws. The Japan Law is when twin gems are connected at an angle of 84˚33". Early artwork from Pseudomorph of Love shows that the Amethyst Twins were originally going to be White instead of Purple.

They both rely on each-other, but both secretly desire to be more independent, due to their fear of both being taken by the Lunarians at once. When together with 84, they can become cocky and overconfident. Despite this, both twins are still very caring and tend to put others before themselves.

Story [ ] New Assignment Arc [ ] Amethyst 33 and 84 crushed in between a Lunarian trap Together, the Amethyst twins are tasked with training Phosphophyllite to fight after Phos had gained their new agate legs. They are chosen for this task both because of their unique twin nature, making communication easier, and their talent in swordplay. They train uneventfully for a short while before a sunspot appears during their patrol. They instruct Phos to watch and learn before proceeding to skillfully cut down many Lunarians. They slice the central Lunarians in half horizontally but become cocky. In their carelessness, both Amethyst 33 and 84 are caught in a four-pointed snare trap with spikes made of Sapphire that emerged from the central Lunarian's body. The two Gems are crushed between the blades of the trap while Phosphophyllite helplessly watches, too afraid to act. The Lunarians almost successfully escape with the fragments of Amethyst 33 and 84 but are cut down by Bort . The pieces of the twins are recovered and they are successfully repaired by Rutile . Phosphophyllite apologises profusely for not helping but the twins reassure them that it is their fault for being careless. Winter Arc [ ] The twins hibernate alongside the other Gems due to the lack of sunlight. Spring Arc [ ] Upon reawakening from hibernation, the Amethyst twins are greeted with a stronger Phosphophyllite, now calmer with shorter hair and arms made out of gold and platinum alloy.

After the other Gems successfully defeated Shiro , the two twins are seen hunting and collecting the small puppies that had split off from Shiro alongside the other Gems. Secrets Arc [ ] When Phos attempted to learn more about the Lunarians by capturing one in their alloy and trying to communicate with it, 33 and 84 dispatched the Lunarians, unaware of Phos' plan. However this is manga-exclusive, as this is done by Cinnabar in the anime . Journey to the Moon Arc [ ] After Phosphophyllite's return from the Moon , they tell vague stories of their time there to 33 and 84, Obsidian and Zircon . However, they are interrupted by Jade and Euclase , who tell the Gems to go to bed. Obsidian and Zircon obey their instructions but the twins and Phos remain behind, Amethyst 84 pretending to sleep in 33's arms. Phosphophyllite tells the twins that the Gems and the Lunarians were once one, but split apart from each-other at some point. Amethyst 33 theorises that if one spends a lot of time on the Moon, they might be able to change completely and separate from their twin, something they have been thinking of for a while, as they fear that if they could be both captured at once by the Lunarians if they do not separate. Unbeknownst to Phos and Amethyst 33, 84 overheard the entire conversation. 84 feels bad for 33 and decides to go to the Moon in 33's stead, much to Amethyst 33's dismay. They break because of 84's departure to the Moon but are repaired and get over the loss fairly quickly and decide to side with Sensei against the Lunarians and Moon Gems. Prayer Arc [ ] During Phosphophyllite's night raid, they crowd around Yellow Diamond along with Zircon and Neptunite . However they are quickly broken by Padparadscha 's sword, much to Yellow's dismay. They are repaired by Sensei after the night raid had ended.

They assist the other Earth Gems with Cinnabar 's plan, scattering the pieces of Phos across the Land in order to make recovering and repairing them more difficult for the Lunarians. Invasion Arc [ ] When Sensei had repaired Phos after 220 years, Amethyst 33 helped the other Gems try to chase them down and break them again. However they are unsuccessful and Phos escapes with the help of Padparadscha . Afterwards, 33 notices Zircon sitting alone sadly and asks them if they're missing Yellow Diamond. Zircon confirms this and 33 mentions that they believe 84 is doing well on the Moon as they feel alright themselves. They further discuss the wellbeing of Goshenite , Benitoite and Diamond with Morganite , Neptunite and Cinnabar During Phos' invasion of the Land , Amethyst 33, Sphene , Peridot and Morganite are shattered by Alexandrite in one blow. Their body is recovered by the Lunarians and turned into a lunarian alongside the other gems. Relationships [ ] Amethyst 84 [ ] As their twin, Amethyst 33 and 84 are extremely close with each-other and act in co-ordination. They both rely heavily on each-other but each secretly worries that they could both be captured by the Lunarians at once, and therefore secretly desire independance from one and another. 84 ultimately decides to go to the Moon with Phosphophyllite out of care for Amethyst 33. It appears they still feel connected as twins despite their distance and 33 holds no ill will towards 84. Phosphophyllite [ ] Before being assigned to train Phos, it seems 33 and 84 didn't speak much with Phos. They enjoyed teasing Phos, causing the younger Gem to become tense when stating that the place they're assigned to patrol is a common place for Lunarians to show. During patrol training, the twins would give false alarms to Phos by expressing astonishment at passing animals. However, they are very kind as well, often speaking in a soft, slow manner.

Later, when Phos gained their gold arms, the younger Gem fought the Lunarians single-handedly in front of the twins, causing the two to hug Phos in admiration. It seems later that both 33 and 84 have both lost their respect for Phos due to their actions, as demonstrated when 33 threw their sword at an unarmed Phos. Based on how other Gems treated each other, it can be assumed that Amethyst 84 has a friendly relationship with the other Gems and also like and trust their sensei .

Phosphophyllite apologises profusely for not helping but the twins reassure them that it is their fault for being careless. Winter Arc [ ] The twins hibernate alongside the other Gems due to the lack of sunlight. Manga Spoiler Spring Arc [ ] Upon reawakening from hibernation, the Amethyst twins are greeted with a stronger Phosphophyllite, now calmer with shorter hair and arms made out of gold and platinum alloy. Phosphophyllite shows off their new strength to 84 and 33 by easily taking down a sunspot in front of them. 84 and 33 proceed to hug Phos and congratulate them for changing and becoming stronger. After the other Gems successfully defeated Shiro , the two twins are seen hunting and collecting the small puppies that had split off from Shiro alongside the other Gems. Secrets Arc [ ] When Phos attempted to learn more about the Lunarians by capturing one in their alloy and trying to communicate with it, 88 and 33 dispatched the Lunarians, unaware of Phos' plan. However this is manga-exclusive, as this is done by Cinnabar in the anime . Journey to the Moon Arc [ ] Amethyst 84 opens their eyes after pretending to sleep After Phosphophyllite's return from the Moon , they tell vague stories of their time there to 84 and 33, Obsidian and Zircon . However, they are interrupted by Jade and Euclase , who tell the Gems to go to bed. Obsidian and Zircon obey their instructions but the twins and Phos remain behind, Amethyst 84 pretending to sleep in 33's arms. Phosphophyllite tells the twins that the Gems and the Lunarians were once one, but split apart from each-other at some point. Amethyst 33 theorises that if one spends a lot of time on the Moon, they might be able to change completely and separate from their twin, something they have been thinking of for a while, as they fear that if they could be both captured at once by the Lunarians if they do not separate. Unbeknownst to Phos and Amethyst 33, 84 overheard the entire conversation. 84 feels bad for 33 and decides to go to the Moon in 33's stead. The night of Phos' return to the Moon Amethyst 84 switches their hair to cover their left eye in order to impersonate 33 and meets up with Phos and all the other Gems who have become interested in the Moon. Upon their arrival on the Moon, 84 reveals to Phos that they are 84 and not 33, to Phos' confusion. Later, Phos reveals to 84 and the other Moon Gems that the Gems who were captured and taken to the moon were all ground to dust and spread over the Moon's surface, and that the Gem pieces incorporated into Lunarian weaponry were all synthetic. The majority of the Gems and presumably 84 break with the burden of this knowledge but are repaired. Prayer Arc [ ] Amethyst 84 adjusts well to life on the Moon, and is one of the first Gems to do so. They do not participate in Phos' night raid on the School. Invasion Arc [ ] Phos attempts to blackmail Amethyst 84 During the 220 years of Phosphophyllite's unconsciousness, Amethyst 84 became a scientist, serving under the Lunarian Barbata . When they hear that Yellow Diamond has jumped off a balcony, they tend to Yellow and explain to Diamond and Cairngorm that Yellow Diamond wants to become a Lunarian. 84 also expresses some interest in becoming a Lunarian as being a Gem makes the fields of science they can study limited and in addition makes travel inconvienent. They ask Cairngorm to get information about turning into a Lunarian from Aechmea . After Phosphophyllite's second return to the moon, Phos attemps to force Amethyst 84 into joining them in crushing all the Earth Gems and making Sensei pray. Amethyst 84 refuses and Phos threatens to break Amethyst 33 and forcefully bring them to the Moon. Amethyst 84 simply states that they had no problems being together or apart and ultimately stays on the Moon during Phos' invasion. After all the Earth Gems had been forcefully brought to the Moon, Amethyst 84 finalizes the Lunarian Transformation device. They debate with Cairngorm about who should be the first test subject. During their debate, new Goshenite walks into the machine and is successfully turned into a Lunarian. 84 asks all of the Earth Gems whether they want to be turned into Lunarians or not and all of them decide to wait on Euclase's answer. Euclase agrees to being turned into a Lunarian alongside all the other Earth Gems. The old Gems captured and turned into dust on the Moon are also restored and turned into Lunarians along with Sensei. ' End of spoiler. Relationships [ ] Amethyst 33 [ ] As their twin, Amethyst 84 and 33 are extremely close with each-other and act in co-ordination. They both rely heavily on each-other but each secretly worries that they could both be captured by the Lunarians at once, and therefore secretly desire independance from one and another. Manga Spoiler 84 ultimately decides to go to the Moon with Phosphophyllite out of care for Amethyst 33. It appears they still feel connected as twins despite their distance. Barbata [ ] It appears that Barbata acts as a mentor to Amethyst 84, who taught them science and supports them on their own scientific studies. He expresses concern over 84's desire to subject themselves to possibly dangerous experiments in order to turn themselves into a Lunarian and shows relief when 84 isn't roped into Phos' invasion of the Land. 84 seems to respect him back and refers to him as sir. End of spoiler. Phosphophyllite [ ] Before being assigned to train Phos, it seems 84 and 33 didn't speak much with Phos. They enjoyed teasing Phos, causing the younger Gem to become tense when stating that the place they're assigned to patrol is a common place for Lunarians to show. During patrol training, the twins would give false alarms to Phos by expressing astonishment at passing animals. However, they are very kind as well, often speaking in a soft, slow manner. When they were shattered by the Lunarians and Phos was unable to fight back, Phos asked for their forgiveness but they apologized instead and claimed it was their own fault for being careless and trying to show off. Manga Spoiler Later, when Phos gained their gold arms, the younger Gem fought the Lunarians single-handedly in front of the twins, causing the two to hug Phos in admiration. It seems later that both 84 and 33 have both lost their respect for Phos due to their actions. Even as Aechmea tells the Moon Gems that Phos has failed their mission and has been shattered, Amethyst 84 shows no care for Phos and simply comments on Cairngorm smiling at the news. End of spoiler. Based on how other Gems treated each other, it can be assumed that Amethyst 84 has a friendly relationship with the other Gems and also like and trust their sensei . Gem Info [ ] Mineral: Quartz Chemistry: SiO 2 Color: Purple, violet Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz, and owes its violet color to irradiation, iron impurities (in some cases in conjunction with transition element impurities), and the presence of trace elements, which result in complex crystal lattice substitutions. The hardness of the mineral is the same as quartz, thus it is suitable for use in jewelry. The name comes from the Ancient Greek ἀ a- ("not") and μέθυστοςméthystos ("intoxicated"), a reference to the belief that the stone protected its owner from drunkenness. Amethyst is the birthstone for February and the gem for the 6th and 17th wedding anniversaries. Rough amethyst. Polished amethyst Trivia [ ] In the original Japanese version, the twins nicknames are written as 'Eighty-Four' and 'Thirty-Three' as English words in katakana. The nicknames are a reference to Japan Law twinning, a type of gemstone twinning. Twinning is when separate gemstones grow conjoined together. This can happen in different patterns called Laws. The Japan Law is when twin gems are connected at an angle of 84˚33". Gallery [ ] Amethyst 84 and 33 together. Bust of Amethyst 84 and 33. Amethyst 84 and 33 in the anime.

Land of the Lustrous

Antarcticite has a white color scheme, they wear a white version of the winter uniform, which includes white shorts and a vest over a short-sleeved shirt along with a black tie. They wear black curved top-line ankle boots with stiletto heels and short black gloves. They have narrow eyes.
Their hair is styled very short, with their bangs being made of longer strands with one long prominent one being in their face generally. Their hair is parted to their right with side swept bangs.
Unlike the other gems who use an ordinary sword, Antarc's blade is saw-like with sharp teeth for cutting into ice. They also have stiletto heels on their boots to help in this endeavor. They also use the sword as a snowboard during fighting.

Manga Spoiler After becoming a lunarian, Antarcticite uses a body suit starting from their chest down, and ballerina flats, but they are also seen naked wearing only a crown of flowers with transluscent fabric in Party at the End. As of Chapter 95 , Antarcticite has become a Lunarian and therefore has lost their unique translucent physique. End of spoiler. Personality [ ] Antarcticite is a perfectionist who acts like a soldier, marching and speaking with extreme formality, giving them a cold, almost apathetic aura. They are used to working alone, as all the other Gems hibernate during the winter when there is not enough sunlight to feed them and keep them active. Though they become partnered with Phos, they have difficulty working with another Gem and often end up doing most of the work. They are similar to Bort in being very blunt and judgmental, but deep down they are soft and kind. They point out the flaws in Phos, stating that the latter should do more than they can do in order to improve. They are very fond of Kongō to the point of breaking their usually formal appearance in order to embrace him in a hug. They do not like to openly show this softer side though, blushing when they requested a hug in the first place, and being extremely embarrassed when caught in the act afterwards. Character Profiles [ ] Vol. 3: In charge during the winter. Behaves like a soldier and an only child. Vol. 4: All but the Gem's left foot is on the moon. Vol. 6: Mostly on the moon now. Might look like this; we can't deny the possibility. Story [ ] Winter Arc [ ] Antarcticite crystallizing Antarcticite is first seen crystallizing inside a rectangular box next to a pile of clothes. After fully crystallizing and wearing the winter uniform, Antarc goes to greet to Kongō and reports they are in perfect condition. Kongō apologizes for how Antarc must spend every winter alone, but Antarc refutes that, telling Kongō that they don't feel lonely. Antarc starts to blush a bit, and asks Kongō for "the yearly custom", which is just a simple hug. While Antarc embraced Kongō, they notice Phosphophyllite hiding behind a pillar. Antarc screams at Phos, wondering why they're awake. Phos tells Kongō that it was hard to sleep, and if it was possible to stay awake this winter. Kongō agrees, telling Phos that they will pair up with Antarc. Antarc instantly refuses, calling Phos useless, but quickly shuts up once Phos asks about the "yearly custom". Antarc starts insulting Phos inside the school, wondering why, the last gem that wakes up every year, is not hibernating with the rest of them gems. Phos, looking tired from all the insults, quickly dashes forward with their agate legs to show Antarc their speed. Antarc correctly guesses the mineral the legs are made out of, and asks if they've been in battle. Phos tells Antarc that they've been in battle, but when it mattered the most, they were unable to run. Phos continues, saying that they hated the fact nobody yelled at them. Since they heard that just staying awake in winter is tough, they wanted to push themself a bit further. Antarc, pitying Phos, decides to have Phos help Antarc on the job, but warns it will be tough. Phos reluctantly agrees, wanting to push themself even further. Antarcticite destroying a ice floe Antarc and Phos are then seen walking through the snow, with the later barely able to stand up, crawling through the thick snow. Once Antarc and Phos reach their destination, Phos sees the strange ice formations and instantly screams Lunarians, but Antarc corrects Phos, calling the "Lunarians" ice floes. Antarc continues on, explaining that ice floes form when the sea freezes and the microflora from the seafloor harden into shapes similar to Lunarian vessels, but recalls one time when Kongō called the ice floe "sinners". Antarc tells Phos to ready themself as a loud shriek suddenly resounds, high pitched enough that Phos visibly cracks. Antarc explains that that unpleasant sound is what happens when the ice floes scrape against each other, which disturbs the gems' sleep, and so must be smashed. Antarc unsheathes their sword, and goes ahead and effortlessly smashes one of the ice floes, then tells Phos to do the same, to which Phos replies that they can't possibly do that. Antarc and Phos return to the school at night, where Phos is seen leaning into a bowl of jellyfish to attempt some light absorption, and Antarc is checking the supplies on the shelves. Phos starts making excuses, saying that all they have is their legs, but Antarc refutes that by mentioning that they themself are not complete, and would easily get crushed by the ice floes if they fall into the ocean. Phos doubts Antarc, saying that Antarc just wants to get rid of them to have Kongō all to themself. Antarc tells Phos (after a half-hearted threat to break them) that the only thing low hardness gems have is their courage, and without that they're nothing. Phos says that they can only do things they can do, to which Antarc controverts saying that they only "try" the things that they can do. Phos says if they can do it, they will do their very best. Antarc rebuts that, saying they'll never be able to do anything else, to which Phos sits in silence. Antarc starts training Phos the next day, starting with attempting to have Phos to break an ice floe, to which Phos nearly does, doing the footwork entirely correct, but ends up cracking when trying to destroy the ice floe with their sword. Antarc also shows them the other chores they have to do, including shoveling snow and making sure the gems and Kongō don't sleepwalk in the school. Phos ends up being useless at helping Antarc, ending up sawing a small piece of an ice floe while Antarc effortlessly smashes multiple ice floes, that is until the ice floes suddenly asks Phos if they're okay. Phos is quickly startle, and shouts to Antarc that they can't take it anymore and that the ice floe talked. Antarc brushes it off as something normal, explaining that because ice floes are minerals just like the gems, they can hear faint whispers, or sounds that resemble words, but Phos rebuts, giving multiple examples of ice floes speaking in clear sentences. Phos and Antarc then go to Kongō. Kongō states that albeit they can "talk", it doesn't mean that the ice floes are sentient. The ice floes will, however, amplify the anxieties to those who listen, Kongō describing them as the "dregs" of ancient lifeforms. Antarc then starts reporting about Phos, mentioning that while they're doing better than expected, they wish for Phos' arms to match the strength of their legs. While smashing ice floes, Antarc notices Phos slipping into the ocean. Antarc quickly rushes to pull Phos out, only to realize that Phos has lost both their arms. Antarc quickly dives into the water to try and retrieve them, nearly losing one of their own hands in the process, but are unable to find Phos' arms, even at the bottom of the ocean. Antarc and Phos go back to Kongō, who, once hearing about the loss of Phos' arms, is visibly distressed by the news. Antarc blames themself for the incident, and despite looking everywhere, wants to go back and try harder, but is quickly stopped by Kongō, who tries to comfort Antarc. Phos, feeling deeply responsible for the ordeal, tries to tell Antarc not to worry about it, but Antarc is already angry at themself, hugging Kongō harder. Kongō then suggests for Phos and Antarc to search the Shore of Nascency for viable replacements. The process of getting there is hindered by Phos' lack of arms to support them, and the journey is made uncomfortably awkward by Antarc's silence. (Anime only, as they simply have them already there in the manga) At the Shore, Antarc gives a brief rundown of how the gems are born from the giant cliffside, pointing out how rare it is for gems like themselves to be born when an incomplete ruby falls from the cliff and into the snowy sand below. The two search the Shore, but only find heavy and malleable gold and platinum Antarc deems useless. But falling for Phos's own empathy for the weak metals' plight, they attempt to attach it to Phos' stumps. The clouds begin to dissipate, so Antarc tells Phos to remove the metal so they can return to the school, but the alloy begins to grow and envelop Phos, causing Phos to panic as a sunspot materializes in the sky. Antarc loses their composer temporarily as Phos pleads with them to do something, but they regain it once more as they notice a glint and dodge a Lunarian arrow. Antarc then starts to fight the sunspot and is able to slice the Halo, only to discover that its one of the new types, armed with hooked grenades made from imitation Pink Fluorite . Antarc takes it down, but not without massive damage. Antarc then attempts to free Phos from a "box" made from the alloy they have been encased in, only for Antarc to be suddenly pierced from behind by a second sunspot. Before being completely shattered, Antarc asks Phos to be silent, and to "make sure Sensei isn't lonely this winter". Another Lunarian vessel drops down to collect the pieces of Antarc, while Phos stuck and unable to help. At the last moment, Phos is able to gain some control over their alloy arms and gives chase to the Lunarian vessel. They are unfortunately too late, and are only able to collect a few pieces of Antarc, before the rest of them are taken to the Moon. Spring Arc [ ] Following the loss of Antarc, Phos has several hallucinations of them. Some seem to be random occurrences, while others appear as a guide for Phos. Either to make certain decisions, or to warn them. Invasion Arc [ ] Following Phos' return to the Moon from their 220 year imprisonment on Earth, they have a dream where all the Gems torment and belittle Phos for being weak, concluding with Antarc wishing Phos had never existed. Antarctictite is restored like all the other Gems and is changed into a Lunarian to maintain their memories. They are reunited with Kongō, who briefly informs Antarc of what happened after Antarc asks where Phos is. They dislike Phos for stating that it would be better if Kongō wasn't there but later forgives them. Relationships [ ] Due to the fact that Antarcticite is usually the only Gem active during the winter other than Kongō, it is likely that they don't have many interactions with the other Gems. One of their duties is to ensure that the other Gems sleep peacefully, and that includes putting sleep-walking Gems back to rest. Phos managed to stay awake during winter to help out Antarc, so it could be assumed that at some point in the past, other Gems may have done so as well. The Gems are also known to fall into hibernation later or wake up earlier than each other, which may also imply that some of them have interacted with Antarc during that small window of time. Nonetheless, Antarc seems to be fairly familiar with the other Gems. They knew enough about Phos to agree with the others that Phos never did anything useful. Antarc initially did not want to partner with Phos, preferring to work alone. But after partnering with Phos, they started advising them and teaching them many things in order to get Phos to improve. When Phos fell into the water and lost their arms, Antarc showed grievous concern and immediately jumped into the sea to look for them. Kongō [ ] Antarcticite's affection for Kongō is one of their defining attributes. When a new type of Lunarians attacked and managed to break off their hand, Antarc became enraged, unwilling to part with any of their memories of Kongō. Before they were abducted by a second vessel of Lunarians, their last words to Phos is to keep Kongō company so that he wouldn't be lonely during the winter. Quotes [ ] "We low-hardness Gems have nothing if not our courage." - Antarcticite, after repairing Phos. " Make sure Sensei isn't lonely, take care of the Winter. "- Antarcticite, after being shattered by the Lunarians. Gem Info [ ] Mineral: Halide Chemistry: CaCl 2 ·6H 2 O Color: Colorless Antarcticite is an uncommon calcium chloride hexahydrate mineral. It forms colorless acicular trigonal crystals. It is hygroscopic and has a low specific gravity of 1.715. As its name implies, it was first described in 1965 for an occurrence in Antarctica where it occurs as crystalline precipitate from a highly saline brine in Don Juan Pond, in the west end of Wright Valley, Victoria Land. Antarcticite is temperature-sensitive, very deliquescent and the specimen is displayed in a sealed vial. At temperatures above room-temperature, antarcticite begins to dissolve in its own liquid and re-crystallizes when the temperature drops to room temperature or below. crystalized antarcticite in vial Source: Oso's Mineral Co.

Antarcticite appearing in Phos's dream New look Antarcticite hugging Kongo-sensei but in moon Trivia [ ] At the end of the episode in which Antarc is taken by the Lunarians, a special ending theme is played instead of the usual one: "Liquescimus" (meaning "melt" in latin) by Tomoyo Kurosawa. Rather than the usual ending video, a still of Antarc's now-empty tub is shown as the season slowly turns to early spring. Antarc is the only known casualty from a confirmed new-type Lunarian vessel. It is possible that the mineral Antarc is mildly misexplained. Antarcticite only 'melts' in presence of moisture in the air and can be only found in extremely arid locations near brine pools such as Antarctica and California. Its possible that during cold conditions, the air cannot hold moisture, allowing Antarc to reform without issues.

Land of the Lustrous

They're assumed to have either white or mint green features.


Land of the Lustrous

Bee is an incredibly tall but chubby feminine Lunarian with rounded, smooth features. Based on depictions of Lunarians so far, they are presumably a light cream colour. They have a large, round nose and short eyebrows. Their eyes are large, wide and framed with small eyelashes, and they have a short, parted bob-cut with two, large, floppy rabbit-like ear appendages growing from both sides of their head.
Bee wears a standard Lunarian outfit consisting of a long, loose skirt with a sash placed on their left shoulder. They wear a large, beaded necklace with bracelets on their wrists and arms. Bee also bears a striking resemblance to Cicada , but according to the latter, they are unrelated.
Much like Cicada, Bee is capable of transforming into a much larger, muscular, intimidating creature for combat scenarios. This form resembles a more humanoid version of the Buddhist depiction of a Snow Lion . They are capable of carrying heavy objects in this form, such as the large fan they wielded during the night raid. The only thing differentiating Bee in this form from Cicada is the large, beaded necklace around their neck.

Based on their very few appearances, Bee appears to be a sweet and calm person who is always seen smiling gently. They are helpful towards both the Lustrous and Aechmea . They even defied Aechmea 's rules in order to help Cairngorm with their night raid plan. Bee shares the wish of all Lunarians, to become nothingness and believes in Aechmea's plan to accomplish this goal.
However, as a former resident of the Khumela region, in the past Bee was deemed as in the lowest rungs of society in terms of morality. It is likely they grew as a person during the many years they were stuck as a Lunarian and bettered themself.


Land of the Lustrous

Aquamarine's only appearance is as their Lunarian form in the Volume 12 special edition artbook, The Party At The End . They are assumed to have light blue features. They have very short hair with a side part. They are seen with heart shaped earrings.


Land of the Lustrous

Barbata has a generally relaxed and casual appearance. He is tall and thin. His hair is disheveled, messy and short, and he has a goatee. His eyes are much narrower than most other Lunarians seen.
He generally wears more loose fitting, baggy clothing, and is usually seen in an oversized lab coat similar to the one Rutile wears.

Barbata seems to be a relaxed individual that prefers to enjoy taking things at his own pace, but is often forced into doing other things. He is incredibly observant and critical, the only one displaying distress over the Gems' wishes to become nothing and / or Lunarians. He also seems empathetic and friendly, giving out high fives to Phos and treating the Gems in a more favourable way than most Lunarians. Nonetheless, he can be a bit awkward at times, especially while he was first meeting the Gems. However, it seems he was not always this outwardly open and empathetic. As a resident of the Khumela region, Barbata was deemed as in the lowest rungs of society in terms of morality. It is likely he grew as a person during the many years he was stuck as a Lunarian.
He is incredibly intelligent, figuring out possibilities about Gem restoration and technical details. He also has a great passion for the culinary arts, especially baking, preferring it to his technical work. He is also quite good at it and is known for his excellent skill on the Moon. He bonds with Alexandrite over this. While he seems to be known for it, the skill seems to be considered a hobby by Aechmea, as Barbata's job as tech supervisor takes precedent over his culinary. Aechmea uses this fact to persuade Barbata to agree to teach the Gems science by possibly allowing permission to Barbata to bake.
