Topaz

Topaz is a Homeworld Gem and the fusion of two smaller Topazes who made her debut in "Are You My Dad?". She was sent to Earth with Aquamarine to retrieve humans for Yellow Diamond to take to Pink Diamond's Zoo.
== Appearance ==
Topaz's gemstones are on both sides of her head, where ears would be. Her components are identical albeit shorter, one with her gemstone on the left side of her head, and the other with her gemstone on her right.
Topaz has yellow hair in a short, flat top-like fashion, yellow skin, and a tinted orange visor that covers her eyes and the sides of her head. Her eyes appear to be brown.
Her outfit consists of a maroon vest with Yellow Diamond's insignia, a mahogany top underneath, and dark brown bottoms that cover her feet. She has a large, broad, and muscular build with relatively short legs and large, powerful arms. She has a square head and chin.
== Personality ==
Topaz, like her components, is silent and aloof, possibly symbolized by her gems covering her ears. She is an obedient soldier, clearly respecting the Gem hierarchy. She obeys all of Aquamarine's orders instantly, wordlessly, and without question (despite being insulted by her constantly). She is described by Rebecca Sugar to be "particularly powerful." She is also originally seen as somewhat ruthless towards humans, almost going through with following Aquamarine's orders to kill Jamie to get the Crystal Gems to tell them where "My Dad" was. She is also not above fighting dirty, using Steven's friends to protect herself from Garnet's attacks.
However, in "Stuck Together", Topaz shows an emotional side of herself, starting to cry after hearing Steven and Lars' conversation. She speaks to the humans for the first time, revealing that (while she appears fine with her role) she is unhappy with how she is treated. However, while originally willing to defy Aquamarine (and, by extension, the Diamonds), she changes her mind after being reminded that her components would be separated and shattered for rebelling.
== Abilities ==
Topaz possesses the standard Gem abilities, most prominently fusion, and is an extremely powerful Gem. She is heavy enough to make the ground shake simply by walking, and her attacks are strong enough to send Garnet flying through a carnival booth.
=== Skillset ===
* Fusion Engulfing: Topaz's components are shown to be extremely proficient in unfusing and re-fusing rapidly around an enemy, engulfing and imprisoning them inside of their fusion.
* Mace/Pugil Stick Proficiency: Topaz wields a long crystal-headed pugil stick as a weapon. When apart, her components summon one-handed mace-like variants.
== Trivia ==
* When asked why she paired Topaz and Aquamarine together, Rebecca Sugar said it was to show both sides of the very high ranking types of blue and yellow Gems on Homeworld.
** This indicates that Topaz has a high ranking on Homeworld, but not as high as Aquamarine's.
* In "Stuck Together", it is made clear that Topaz is capable of hearing despite having both her gems being where her ears would be.
* The existence of Topaz proves that perma-fusions are indeed legal on Homeworld, providing the components are of the same type. Although given the role of fusions as weapons/tools it's very likely reserved for certain Gem castes (e.g. soldiers).

Image	Description
 	
Topaz's gemstones are located on both sides of her head, corresponding with her two components' gemstone locations (on the left or right sides of their heads). Her gemstones have triangular facets and a circular center facet. These gemstones resemble that of the Lighthouse Gem Monster, with the only difference being color, number of facets and shape.
