Rainbow Diamond

**Rainbow Diamond**, or **Rainbow** for short, is an Allied Gem and the founder of the Rainbow Sector that creates gems without ruining the environment.

As of Era 3, Rainbow knows of the other diamonds but has never met them and doesn't intend to after hearing about them from Steven himself.

## Appearance

Despite being a diamond, she is only as tall as Sardonyx, she is smaller than the other three but not as small as Pink was.

Her complexion is a pale iridescent silver which reflects multicoloured in light, and she has long, bushy, pastel rainbow hair which is thigh length. Two noticeable and symmetrical locks of her hair curl and point inwards towards her face just below her cheekbones. She has a long ovoid face, full lips with white lipstick, and a straight nose. She also possesses large, curved, almond-like eyes with bold mascara on the upper lashes which have an iridescent blue on the edges. Her irises are pastel rainbow with white diamond-shaped pupils and she has thin arching eyebrows.

Her gemstone is located on her back between her shoulder blades, and she wears a long flowy white dress with two triangles coloured in blue and pink which come together in the centre to make a diamond symbol. Her height is similar to Sardonyx.

## Personality

Rainbow Diamond is a merciful diamond and a justice enthusiast. Her and Pink Diamond's ideologies are very similar in the fact that they treat every gem with respect and don't act higher than them, however where the differ is that Rainbow cared about what they believed in to the point where she formulated a way for gems to be created without ruining the environments surrounding her kindergartens.

She views the other three diamonds and The Great Diamond Authority as whole before its dissolution with a high level of disdain which has led to her intentions of never meeting the other diamonds. She is in a space where she is content with everything as it is, and won't cross that bridge just to meet them.

## History

### Ancient History

Not much is known about Rainbow Diamond's exact past. Her, White Diamond and Black Diamond were created at a similar time and as such are the same age. Over the millenia, she created the Rainbow Sector, the group of her colonies and crystal systems that she founded.

She created many alternate solutions for many of her problems, many problems that The Great Diamond Authority faced, which shows how much more advanced in a simpler way she is to the other diamonds.

She kept a close eye on the Gem War but never got involved as she kept the peace in her sector and wasn't going to get involved with the Crystal Gems and the Gem Homeworld's fight.

### Around 6,000 Years Ago

Not much is known about Rainbow's history after founding the Rainbow Sector, the only time she ever showed up again was when Pink Diamond held her fake shattering, where she appeared on all the diamond communicators simultaneously (excluding The Garden) and scolded the remaining diamonds for their behaviour, reprimanding them for allowing that to even occur by just leaving Pink to deal with it herself.

After this event, Rainbow once again disappeared in the eyes of The Gem Homeworld and was never even looked for much to Rainbow's delight.
