## Media

### First Appearance

Pilot
"Gem Glow" (main series)

### Designed by

**Rebecca Sugar****Dakota L.** (adult design)

**Steven Dia Universe** (born **Steven Quartz Universe**) is the titular main protagonist of the series of the same name, and the first main protagonist of *Hyper Blend*. He is the son of Greg Universe and Rose Quartz, the first known hybrid of a human and a Gem, making him the first instance of Gemini, and the first Crystal Gem of human descent. As a result of his parentage, Steven is an extraordinarily unique being with innate powers beyond that of both normal humans and Gems. While he was only a child, Steven steadily grew from a tag-along to the Crystal Gems into the team's unofficial leader thanks to his kind-hearted nature and resourcefulness.

Steven is devoted to protecting humanity just as Rose Quartz did, and though her monumental legacy once forced Steven to live in her shadow, he has since surpassed Pink Diamond by ending the authoritarian practices of The Great Diamond Authority and establishing peace across the galaxy.

Two years later, Steven has accepted himself as the new Pink Diamond, and has proven to everyone that he is not his mom, but as he has solved everyone else's problems, it is finally time for Steven to face his own in the epilogue series, *Steven Universe Future*.

In the further future, Steven now lives happily and in peace with both sides of his family, helping his fellow Diamonds oversee Gemkind and establishing new laws alongside them. He is married to his childhood sweetheart Connie Maheswaren, and later gives birth to his first daughter, Nora Universe.

## Appearance

### Steven Universe

Steven is a short Caucasian boy, with skin slightly tinted pink. According to Pearl and Vidalia, Steven takes after Greg Universe and Rose Quartz (Steven's parents) respectively. He is relatively short with a thick, stocky build, and has a round head with chubby cheeks. He has curly dark brown hair, dark brown eyebrows and dark brown eyes, which are stylized as full black irises, which can sometimes have stars as the pupils when he gets excited or optimistic. His main outfit consists of a salmon-pink T-shirt with a gold star in the center of it. He also wears cuffed blue jeans and salmon-pink flip-flop sandals. His gemstone, a pink diamond, which he inherited from his mother, is where his navel should be. As revealed in "Steven's Birthday", while he is fourteen years of age, his gem physiology affects his rate of aging and he appears younger than he actually is.

### Steven Universe: The Movie/Steven Universe Future

As of *Steven Universe: The Movie*, Steven has aged physically, having grown slightly taller and now having a physical neck. His main outfit consists of his original blue jeans and salmon-pink sandals, but his shirt is now a bright blue color with a yellow star in the center, and he also wears a pink varsity jacket with white trims. As of *Steven Universe Future*, Steven wears the same clothing he had worn in the movie, except that his blue shirt is now black, resembling Greg's old Mr. Universe shirts.

### Sol & Luttrell

As of *Sol & Luttrell*, Steven is a fully grown man. He has a somewhat muscular build, resembling that of his father, and is very tall in stature, likely an effect of his mother's heritage. He somewhat resembles when he shapeshifted to appear older, but with a slightly thinner build and more rounded facial features. His curly hair has grown out longer, now sitting at upper back length, and has pink streaks and highlights throughout it. His eyes now have vivid pink irises and black pupils which are in the shape of stars. His main outfit consists of (TBA)

## Abilities

Steven possesses standard Gemini abilities, which include the basic abilities of Gems, with some exceptions, differences, and extensions.

Steven has shown to have some abilities of a regular Gem, but sometimes has little control over them due to not receiving enough training. He can warp using the Warp Pads and bubble objects and gemstones to be teleported to the Temple with seemingly full control. He is not strictly oxygen-dependent and is vacuum-resistant as shown in "Ocean Gem" and "Space Race". He also shows that he is able to fuse, as he can fuse with Connie to form Stevonnie. While in the beginning, they tend to fuse spontaneously when they dance and while thinking about each other, by "Beach City Drift" they fuse and re-fuse into Stevonnie at will. Furthermore, he has also been shown to be able to fuse with other Gems as well, as he first fused with Amethyst to form Smoky Quartz in "Earthlings". However, this ability to fuse is only possible through his gem and training, and once his gemstone was affected by Spinel's scythe, fusing with his father proved to be extremely exhausting for Steven and severely weakened him since he lost the power and focus he originally had.

Steven is also capable of shapeshifting, but he has not yet learned to fully control it. His first attempt in "Cat Fingers" was disastrous, temporarily turning him into a cat monster. He has not been able to change his form entirely but can freely shapeshift parts of his body as seen in "Too Short to Ride". His greatest feat in shapeshifting is seen in "Steven's Birthday", where he is able to use shapeshifting to make himself appear older.

Despite his happy-go-lucky and cheerful attitude, he shows himself to be a competent shield fighter and is able to hold his own in most situations with his skill consistently increasing due to practice.

The final battle with Spinel in Steven Universe: The Movie shows him at the peak of his abilities as he fights her one on one, showing that he has grown exceptionally skilled since he was a child, able to either withstand or counter everything Spinel throws at him.

Despite being educated in an isolated environment and never attending conventional school, he possesses a good deal of knowledge not only on general topics, but also in scientific and technical fields like physics, chemistry, and geography due to being educated by the highly intellectual Pearl. However, due to the Crystal Gems' own obliviousness about some human activities, he is quite oblivious about some social terms, like "nuclear family". The prime example is during his conversation with Connie about a family gathering in which Connie mentions the concept of a nuclear family, which makes Steven think that she thinks the Crystal Gems are radioactive. Another example is that when Connie introduces Steven to her favorite novel series, Steven had no idea about the order of the books in the series and was reading them out of order.
