Personality:
Em pretends to be uncaring of her surroundings. She may act as if she doesn't care about someone being hurt, even if they deserved it, but in reality she wants badly to help them. This trait tends to clash with the side of her that is selfish, and narcissistic. She would prefer to keep herself safe, and not put herself in danger for others. Though, she most often will figure out a way to help so long as she's in no real danger. Em acts as if she's independent, but truthfully is much happier when in company. The self preservation side of her tends to get thrown out a window whenever she is bored.
Em dislikes being bored greatly, so she will often do more dangerous things when she is bored. She constantly is wanting to be entertained by something. She's all about having fun, because of this she can occasionally come off as mischievous, or manipulative. In serious situations she often can't get serious. She thinks almost everything is all fun, and games, so it's rather impossible for her to get serious until she knows she's in actual danger. In all she makes stupid desiscions when she's bored. Thankfully she doesn't get bored easily, and with the rebellion group, Crystal Gems, forming, it won't be easy to become bored.
She's exetremely curious about, well everything. Anything she doesn't know about she will ask questions about, and may come off as annoying to some for this reason. She tends to get in trouble often for her curiousity. Sometimes she gets herself in sticky situations, which could easily be avoided, but she is just to curious. Her curiousity is similar to that of a childs. In all honesty she acts much like a child. She finds it hard to get serious, and is easily excitable, and impressed.
Em sees everything with some type of value. She is unlikely to let something be meaninglessly destroyed. She will not stand by while something is meaninglessly destroyed, and will always try to keep things from being meaninglessly destroyed. Do not take this as a reason she should side with crystal gems. She understands that earth has quite a lot of value, and that is could greatly help the gem empire if destroyed, which is the reason she doesn't side with crystal gems. She does dislike all the life on earth being destroyed to help the gem empire, but she will not oppose simply because she believes opposing the Homeworld gems extremely dangerous, and stupid.
Em doesn't have a strong will when it comes to social interactions. She tends to be very awkward with people she doesn't know, because she's afraid she may do something to upset them. If someone asks her to do something she will most likely do it to help earn their favor. If someone dislikes her it will distraught her greatly to the point she will be a kiss up to the person to try to get them to like her.
Likes/Dislikes:
Likes:
- Humans, she thinks they are very entertaining.
- Fights, it can be a very fun thing to watch when to opposing sides clash especially when you're part of it.
- Food, she will turn to food whenever she is bored. It has great taste.
- Sewing, it is a human activity, but for some reason Em is obsessed with it.
Dislikes:
- Things that get meaninglessly destroyed.
- Being bored, when she's bored she makes stupid decisions, and she knows it.
- Being commanded, or directed to do something, she enjoys having freedom to do as she wants.
- The dark. It drains her out of power when she uses her ability little light buddy.
- Corrupted Gems.
Fears:
- Being on the losing side of a fight. She feels if she decided to join the losing side willingly something about her mind must be messed up.
- Being disliked. She doesn't care about how it makes her feel. She fears about how she may have hurt the other person to make them dislike her, and she hates hurting anyone.
Weapon:
Extra Large Thumbtacks-
Well they are pretty much what they're called. They are strong enough to pierce a gems light body, but not the actual gem. Em uses these by throwing them at the target, and either pierces them with it, or pins them to things. A human could not unpin itself, but a gem could if struggling enough.
When she uses the pins her gem would look similar to a pin cushion. Many of the thumb tack's head's would be sticking out of her gem already, making it easier for her to quickly grab them, and throw. Once she is finished using them any that are sticking out of her gem are reabsorbed, and disappear.
This is the weapons size compared to Em.
Ability 1:
Fake Poof-
This tactic is used to confuse the enemy hopefully long enough to get away, or get behind them. If Em feels she is in danger she can create a fake gem that looks like her own. Once the fake gem is created it is immidiantly dropped to the ground, and Em simultaneously becomes invisible. In the time she is invisible it is impossible for her to touch anything that is made out of light, or any gemstones. (Basically anything made by a gem, or the gem's themselves.) She would be invisible for one post. (This means she would be visable in her next post.) Em becomes completely visible, and the fake gem poofs away. She can do this once after a 2 post cooldown. (Meaning two posts of her own.)
Ability 2:
Little Light Buddy-
This ability creates a small glowing orb. This orb can shape to form things. It can look like a human, gem, animal, you name it, and it can change into it. Once it transforms, it can't speak, but it can sound like the thing it transforms into. For instance if it turns into a dog it can only bark, if it turns into a human it can't talk, but it can hum tunes, and make sounds, ect. Em mainly uses it for fun when she is bored, but it can be used to look like a fake Em in battle. Unlike Em, however it can't draw any weapons, or actually attack. It can only run around, and confuse the enemy. Little light buddy sadly can't talk.
The little light buddy is drawn out of Em's own gem, and basically just floats mid air until it transforms into something. Em can control it, and make it do what she wants, but if she's not manually controlling it, it has a personality of it's own, and just does things to entertain, or help Em.
Little Light Buddy really shines when it comes to being a technician. Naturally the little guy knows exactly how Gem technology works, and how to repair it. This is his main use for Em, it means she doesn't need any technicians when she travels.
If the sun is up, or little light buddy has a light of some kind, it can stay on for as long as Em wants, but without any light source for power, it will drain Em out of power within about an hour(Equivilent to about 2 posts.) or so meaning she can't perform either of the abilities until she's rested some. Little light buddy can transfer energy it makes from the sun, and give it to Em. When making the energy for her they appear as little glowing pills. These can be used by other gems.

History:
All gems have a purpose, and Em had two purposes it for offensive battle, and as a technician. She was made in order to confuse the enemy while other, or herself attacks. On the trips there, and back to mission she also served as a technician. She was created on one of yellow diamonds colonies, and immidiantly put to use. She was sent to plant after planet to help take care of any pests keeping homeworld from establishing colonies. Originally she was unaware how to draw her weapon, only use her abilities since she was normally just used for confusion, and mainly her technician abilities. After time though she was taught how to use her weapon, and started getting sent on small group missions, or single gem missions. She was labeled as a small mission specialist, and was valued highly in gem society. She is considered a elite gem due to her skill.
The rest of her jobs she was sent on small group, and one gem missions. During these missions she perfected her weapon, and how to use little buddy. After many years of service a few of her allies had been sent to earth on account of the rebels, and never returned. This began to worry Em after a long time of them not responding. She decided to travel to earth as her next mission to the last place her allies where last known to be at. She was also instructed to learn about humans, and the rebellion while there. When Em had arrived she found her allies ship completely destroyed, and gem shards scattered about the wreckage. After that Em decided to focus on the second part of her mission hoping she might find information about what happened to her friends.
