She wears a blue halter crop top with a Blue Diamond insignia. She also wears a flowing, calf-length, blue skirt and a short navy cape.

## Personality

## History

### Ancient History

Lapis Lazuli emerged under Blue Diamond's court. She was assigned a role as a terraformer as were all Lapis Lazulis.

At some point, Lapis met an Ice, who she became best friends but never fused with; back then most gems didn't think two different types of gems could do such an act. However, discovered by Agates, Lapis Lazuli and Ice were rejuvenated and reassigned to different sectors. They've never gotten their memories back.

Lapis Lazuli was among the many gems assimilated by Dark Diamond, a powerful entity made up only of darkness, instead of light.

## Abilities

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