History:
Plum Pearl was cultivated on home world and was sent with her Owner as part of a small observation and exploration expedition to Earth several centuries ago. She would very much like to know exactly what happened and how she got separated from her owner, but in her core she fears the worst. You see, she would turn up later, attached to the cover of an alchemist's grimoire, that currently belongs to the ancestors of a human by the name of Thaddeus Brandt, who in the late 1700's and early 1800's fancied himself somewhat of an aficionado in Alchemy and the Occult, as humanity began to teeter back and forth between understanding the newly revealed world of science, and trying to reconcile it with the superstitions and magic of their old world. Due to a setting on the cover of the book that was actually a scavenged gem energy resonance insulator, the metallic ring that bound her large mauve Pearl core into the book's cover, also disrupted her magic energy enough as to prevent her from re forming, as well as leaving her mentally half asleep all those years, disrupting her access to some of her memories.. Her relic, now locked in a trunk, keys long gone, is on the auction block at an estate sale by the alchemist's descendants at a museum benefit in Empire City, and if some enterprising.. or just bored.. or lucky gem were to bid on that mystery chest, they just might be in for a surprise.
Character Arcs: Reawakening - A treasure inside!
from there on, Plum will be trying to rebuild her identity and life, and it will likely be somewhat tied with whoever 'buys' her, since as a pearl her servant's instincts/conditioning are strong. So she will have to learn to balance being herself while still relating to gem culture and the role her kind fills within it.

Okay, so thats her history and the rough lay out for her intro thread. Basically what I want to do is figure out with someone who might be the gem to place the winning bit, either on purpose, or simply by accident, ala walking into the room and .... tipping their hat while looking in the direction of the auctioneer, which could be fun, in the sense that an unplanned pairing could make for some drama and banter.
Some of her memories and most of her personality will be intact, however seeing as how she is a model of pearl created for all round utility, she will be a bit more feisty and pro-active than the better known 'Ballerina' Class. Wether the gem that buys her is a pairing that lasts a long time, or if there is a falling out or what not can remain to be seen. It could be either a Crystal Gem or HomeWorld gem and that could affect how the first few story lines play out as well.
I think this could be pretty fun, but I am not up for interaction that is limited to..."Silence Pearl!" or "fetch me my slippers" etc, i want to have a bit more fun with it
Anyway, auditions are open, lets brainstorm and talk!
