**Estelle**

**Garnet** is the fusion of Garnet (and by extension, Ruby and Sapphire), Sapphire (eye gem), Sapphire (sternum gem), Sapphire (arm gem), Sapphire (navel gem), and Sapphire (hand gem).

## Appearance

Garnet's build is similar to the Crystal Gem Garnet. She has orchid colored skin and pale thistle, wavy hair that extends slightly past her back. She has plump lips, a round nose, and 3 eyes; her right eye is red, her left eye is blue, and the upper eye has a gemstone in place of a pupil.

Her outfit consist of a ball room gown that is colored hot pink, subtle magenta, and deep purple, with midnight blue and magenta sleeves, and midnight blue elbow length gloves. She bears similar facial features to Sapphires, due to them greatly outnumbering the Ruby in this fusion.

## Personality

Nothing is known about Garnet's personality.

## Abilities

Garnet possesses standard Gem abilities, bubbling, shapeshifting, fusion, regeneration, agelessness, and superhuman strength/durability.

### Skillset

* **Gauntlet Proficiency**: When channeling the collective power of the universe through her gems, Garnet is able to summon a pair of crimson gauntlets. Garnet is highly proficient when using her gauntlets and is extremely skilled in hand-to-hand combat. She is able to deal massive strikes that can easily shatter the earth and deliver swift blows with lightning speed.
	+ **Rocket Gauntlet**: Garnet takes aim with her gauntlets and shoots them as projectiles.
	+ **Weapon Size Augmentation**: Garnet is able to increase the size of her gauntlets, easily quadrupling their size, and deal increased damage at the cost of reduced speed.
	+ **Deflection**: Garnet is able to use her gauntlets as shields.

### Unique Abilities

* **Future Vision**: Garnet can see multiple future outcomes and probabilities with her third eye. This includes extremely unlikely and ridiculous outcomes, as a considerable amount of her available visions depict others' demise at the hands of mundane tasks or objects on a regular basis.
* **Heat Resistance**: Garnet is capable of submerging herself in lava without being damaged, probably due to the Rubies' thermo-regulation.
* **Enhanced Calculations**: Garnet is able to sense structural integrity.
