Peridots

**Peridots** were low ranking technological Gems that were mostly used as kindergarteners.

## Role

**Peridots** served mainly as technicians and kindergarteners, sometimes performing field assignments on other planets, such as the Peridot who befriended Alice and joined the Questers. Being workers, Peridots had a low rank, only being allowed into elite Homeworld areas if a job was needed to be done there, or if they were a personal assistant to an elite.

Era 2 Peridots were given Limb Enhancers to compensate for the lack of strength and unique abilities older Gems had, due to the depletion of resources on Homeworld since the dawn of Era 2. That being said, the Quester's Peridot is shown to have ferrokinetic and Geokinesis, she is the only known Peridot that has this plant ability, like Alice, it is shown later in “secret sisters” that Squaridot has ferrokinetic abilities as well it’s unknown if all peridots have them.

## Physical Characteristics

Peridots tend to have green skin and yellow or green hair that comes in a variety of shapes. Serenity and "Era 1" are the only known examples of an era 1 Peridot, they are elites due to their size, it is known that they possessed abilities which made technological enhancements unnecessary for them to perform their duties.

In “the zoo” other Peridots can be seen making fruit and other foods for the zoomans.

In “Diamond days” Peridot and Zaza enter an unauthorized area, when inside they see other Peridots reside. They seem to know the Quester Peridot as 'Navy' Peridot states “*We thought you died!*”, these seem to be peridots former crewmates as they all share a hug. They all seem to be Era 2 Peridots as they all have Limb enhancers. Zaza refers to them as "Peri Pals", due to their friendly nature.
