## Biography

### Emerging and Life in Era 1

Plumbogummite was one of the first gems that were emerged for Blue Diamond as White Diamond instructed her to start her court by forming numerous gems. Upon emergence, Plumbogummite was greeted by Blue's Pearl and was taken to a meeting with Blue Diamond where he met his Diamond for the first time. Seeing his Diamond he was shocked to see how massive she was compared to him. Blue Diamond introduced herself to him and instructed him on his job which was to be an Operation Director. Most of his duties as an Operation Director mostly involved making work for gems, how gem warships should be built, and other duties.

After beginning work one day a few years after he began work, Pink Diamond came into his work area and asked him what he was doing. Plumbogummite, surprised by the Diamond's abrupt appearance asked her who she was. Pink replied to him introducing herself. Pink then asked for his name. Plumbogummite responded by saying his name, to which Pink replied calling him "Plumbo". Plumbogummite then told Pink his name was Plumbogummite, not Plumbo. Pink apologized and instead called him, "Gummite", to which Plumbogummite got mad and told her again that her that his name was Plumbogummite, not Gummite. Pink then told him that "Plumbo" was his nickname and just chuckled before she left. Plumbogummite just grumbled and went back to work.

### Role in Colonizing Earth, Witnessing a Rebel Attack, and Moving back to Homeworld

Decades later, Plumbogummite was informed in a message by Blue Diamond that colonization work was commencing on the planet Earth, and was told to send some gems and injectors to Earth, to which he did so. Futhermore Blue Diamond told him he would be in charge of ordering operations on Earth. On a few occasions, Plumbogummite visited Earth to see how the colonization was going on certain areas. However it was during one of these visits, he would meet a new friend, Boleite. Plumbogummite met her while she was telling some gems to do some work. Boleite introduced herself to Plumbogummite and they talked about each other for a while. After work almost on a certain day, they talk to each other.

A few years later, Plumbogummite was present alongside Boleite and a few other gems at Blue Diamond's Earth Palanquin for a meeting discussing a group of rebels that were delaying the colonization progress. As a result, a team of diplomats were sent to Earth to investigate the current crisis.

However during the meeting, two rebels appeared and demanded Blue Diamond abandon Earth and the duo began attacking the Homeworld Gems. During the scuffle that ensued, a Ruby and a Sapphire fused, culminating in them infusing moments later and a crowd of surrounded the Ruby and Sapphire, murmuring in anger and disgust with Plumbogummite saying, "disgusting". However the two gems fled the scene.

Later on because of The Rebellion beginning, Plumbogummite was moved back to Homeworld to continue his operations for main Homeworld operations through his Operation Director duty. Plumbogummite rarely received word on the war on Earth as he was constantly busy with work.

### Befriending a Zircon

A thousand years later, Plumbogummite was getting ready to head back to rest up at the Blue Diamond Living District. However as he walked back to the District, he was accidentally bumped into by a Zircon who was too concentrated on her hologram projections. Plumbogummite, obliviously frustrated, told the Zircon to watch where she was going in a stern tone, however the Zircon immediately got nervous and began to apologize profusely. He then immediately told her to clam down in his usual demeanor. After calming down the Zircon introduced herself as Blue Zircon. Plumbogummite introduced himself and apologized to Blue Zircon for making her nervous. He then offered to be friends with Blue Zircon to which Blue Zircon agreed.

## Trivia

* Plumbogummite does not like nicknames. This is most likely due the fact he thinks nicknames are name-calling.
* In "The Answer", Plumbogummite originally had a female voice, however in his later appearances he has a male voice. This was because Garnet was narrating and was doing the voices as well, excluding Ruby, Sapphire, Pearl, and Rose Quartz. This also makes Plumbogummite one of several other gems to have their voice actors change after their appearance as after "The Answer", Plumbogummite was instead voiced by James Urbaniak.
