![]() ![]() The power of all four Diamonds was required to entirely reverse its effects Steven's saliva only partially and temporarily healed Nephrite as she reverted to her corrupted form shortly afterwards. Garnet described corruption as a tear in the minds of Gems rather than physical damage to their gemstone and as such was harder to heal than cracked gemstones. They are unable to summon objects or use Warp Pads and other Gem technology such as the doors to spaceships. Some corrupted Gems are imprisoned in objects (such as the Pyramid Temple's gemstone or Lapis's mirror) which also prevents them from regenerating.Ĭorruption also seems to strip Gems of some of their basic powers. The gemstones can then be safely contained in Bubbles preventing them from regenerating. However, much like regular Gems, when their bodies are severely damaged, they explode into smoke or poof leaving their gemstones behind. They are also capable of creating offspring and eggs, such as Nephrite in "Gem Glow". Many of them will exhibit behaviors such as feeding and predation, despite not requiring sustenance. ![]() Most Corrupted Gems are hostile and dangerous and behave similarly to wild animals. Time may be a factor in this case - Nephrite had been corrupted for several millennia, as opposed to Jasper, who had just undergone it. Jasper's gemstone, however, wasn't changed by her corruption. As Nephrite's gemstone had a curvy contour line that surrounded the circumference of the gem and upon partial healing by Steven, the curvy contour line straightened. Forms range from slightly humanoid to monstrous and in severe cases not having a physical body at all.Ĭorruption sometimes also changes the physical appearance of a Gem's gemstone. As the bodies of Gems are mental projections, the bodies of corrupted Gems are a reflection of how damaged their minds are. The appearance of corrupted Gems varies greatly with different Gems although corrupted Gems of the same type take on similar appearances as shown by the Heaven Beetle and Earth Beetle, Nephrite's crew and various Quartzes. It's sort of like if MC Bear-Bear didn't tear the fabric of his arm, but the fabric of his mind. In " Monster Reunion" Nephrite described it as a "song" and remembering it seemed to be what triggered her reversion.Īs revealed in " Earthlings" second-hand corruption occurs to normal Gems through fusion with corrupted ones as Jasper started corrupting after fusing with Ocean Jasper and forming a semi-corrupted fusion. As a last-ditch effort in the war for Earth the other Diamonds sent out a flash of bright light which corrupted Gems from both Homeworld and the Rebellion on Earth. We have to take care of them, subdue them, contain them! It's the best we can do for them.Ĭorrupted Gems had been normal Gems before the events that unfolded at the end of The Rebellion.
