### First Appearance

January 22nd, 2017

**Cherry Quartz** is KJD's interpretation of the fusion of Rose Quartz, Ruby and Sapphire. She was replaced by Sunstone (1.0) after the events of “Change Your Mind”.

## Appearance

Cherry Quartz has an appearance similar to that of other Cherry Quartzes, as she is mostly pink with a moderately heavy build with four arms and two legs. Her skin is warm cherry red and she has five red eyes with black pupils, a small nose, and full lips with cherry red lipstick. Her hair is dark red and is in an updo that is made up of short and wide dreadlocks that reach her shoulders in length. Her arms connect at the shoulders and split at the elbows, creating two arms on each side. Her gemstones are on her navel and upper palms and are cherry red.

She wears a pink and hot pink top with white accents creating a star shape. Her shoulder pads are small and pink with white trims, and at each wrist she has a dark red arm band. Down the middle of her midriff is exposed with dark red covering the side as well as a poofy cherry red skirt with a white trim and scalloped edges. Under that she wears dark red capris, and she is barefoot.

## Personality

According to KJD, Cherry Quartz is kind of maid-ish.
