Opal( Tiếng Việt là Ngọc Mắt Mèo) là một hợp thể của Pearl và Amethyst. Opal xuất hiện lần đầu trong tập "Giant Woman".

Ngoại hình[]

“	Cô ấy là một cô gái mạnh mẽ và lạnh lùng như tảng đá, điểm đó giống chị và cô ấy dong dỏng cao - điểm đó giống Pearl.	”
—Amethyst, "Giant Woman"

Opal có da màu ngà sáng, mái tóc dài ngả trắng. Tóc dài qua bắp chân 1 chút, tóc được cột thành kiểu tóc đuôi ngựa bởi 1 chiếc băng đô màu đỏ nhạt. Ngoài ra thì trước phần đuôi ngựa thì cô có mái tóc dài tới cằm và 2 bím tóc ở 2 bên được tết bởi dây màu vàng nhạt, mái tóc có phần giống tóc của Pearl. Opal có dáng người ôm nhưng săn chắc cùng 2 đôi tay mảnh khảnh. Cô có khuôn mặt trái xoang, cô có mũi nhọn như của Pearl cũng như đôi môi căng dày của Amethyst. Vị trí ngọc của Opal trùng với vị trí ngọc của Pearl và Amethyst. Opal rất cao, ít nhất là gấp đôi so với Garnet. Chiều cao của cô có phần tăng vì luôn đi theo kiểu en pointe,( Chủ yếu đứng bằng đầu ngón chân ). Trang phục của cô bao gồm áo fuchsia, quần dài quá gối màu tím nhạt và giày vàng .

Trước tái tạo (Lần đầu xuất hiện)[]

Opal had a pastel teal top with a drape in the front and back that went down to her shins, featuring an accented star at the base. The way she wore these drapes were similar to Amethyst.

Sau tái tạo (trước đây)[]

Trong "The Return", Opal có chịu một ít sự thay đổi. Cô có dải băng quanh eo cô và thêm một đường viền cổ áo ở trên. Bề ngoài của cô thay đổi cùng sự hồi phục của Pearl trong "Steven the Sword Fighter". Tuy vậy, since she appeared in a white and green tinted light, the colors of her clothing are yet to be confirmed. They are assumed to be the same, with slight differences.

Hiện tại[]

As seen in "Log Date 7 15 2", Opal has undergone another change due to Amethyst's regeneration in "Reformed". The sash around her waist is now replaced with a yellow waist base and light green design with straps overlapping the yellow part. Her neckline has also become a singular dark green color.

Tính cách[]

“	Opal là sự hỗn hợp cả phép thuật và hình dáng của bọn chị hợp nhất thành một người.	”
—Pearl, "Giant Woman"

Amethyst và Pearl cực kì mạnh mẽ khi họ có cùng một ý nghĩ trong dạng Opal. Amethyst's ability to live in the moment along with Pearl's obsessive single-mindedness results in a stable fusion. Opal achieves a peace in that balance that Amethyst and Pearl rarely experience on their own. At times, Opal is so calm and at peace that it causes her to forget the task at hand (for example, forgetting to retrieve the Heaven Beetle after rescuing Steven). In addition, according to the book "Guide To The Crystal Gems", Opal is very forgetful.

The balance that holds Opal together is, by far, the thinnest of all the other known fusions. The ease with which Opal can separate is very different from that of Garnet, who is almost impossible to unfuse except under extreme emotion, or if by force (Ruby and Sapphire can willingly separate anytime they wish). If Pearl and Amethyst have conflicting views while fused, this can cause Opal to revert to her constituent Gems; the slightest dissonance between the two poses a danger of involuntary defusion.^[1]

Opal's personality is theorized to be a combination of Amethyst's power, along with Pearl's grace and decisive determination. She appears to be more open to Steven's desire to have fun and play, as she sang part of his song back to him. This is a trait that can be traced back to Amethyst.

In "Fusion", Opal shows both of Pearl and Amethyst's personalities by posing with elegant and silly poses.

Khả năng[]

Opal possesses standard Gem abilities and traits.

Opal is extraordinarily agile, limber, and gracefully elegant, being able to stand on the tips of her toes constantly and execute acrobatic reflexes. Because of this, she is swift and agile in battle, able to outmaneuver almost any opponent she comes across. Opal can jump exceptionally high and far, even from a stationary position. These abilities also grant her impressive parkour and free-running skills, allowing her to scale almost any surface or terrain quickly. Due to Opal being a fusion of Amethyst and Pearl, she can summon either Amethyst's whip or Pearl's spear at will. Opal is able to combine these two weapons and make her primary weapon, an opalescent recurve bow.

Kĩ năng[]

Cung thuật: Opal's weapon is an opalescent recurve bow that fires arrows made of a light-based energy. The bow is roughly as tall as Opal herself. She fuses both of her fusees weapons together to form her bow. Pearl's spear makes up the limbs of the bow while the lash of Amethyst's whip becomes the string. Her arrows are summoned when the bow is drawn back. She currently has two known kinds of arrows.
- Mũi tên bỏ bóng: These arrows form an alarm which can cause a large explosion which emits a bright light on impact, as well as bearing a striking resemblance to the energy blasts that Pearl's spear is capable of. Gems that are pierced by these arrows have their gemstone(s) automatically bubbled and teleported to the Burning Room.
- Đa tiễn: These arrows also have the ability to split into multiple, smaller arrows that can attack multiple targets simultaneously.
Đi trên nước: Opal có thể đi trên nước trong tập "Giant Woman". Cô có cùng khả năng với Pearl, Lapis Lazuli, và Lion.

Các mối quan hệ[]

Steven Universe[]

“	Nấp đi.	”
—Opal, "Giant Woman"

Opal retains a protective nature over Steven from Pearl and Amethyst. She is willing to play around with Steven, as when he asked if she knew him, she replied by smiling and sang his song back to him.

Garnet[]

“	Chị thấy em cũng đã giúp các đồng đội của mình hợp nhất.	”
—Garnet, "Giant Woman"

Opal and Garnet are on seemingly good terms and work together well. When she returned with Steven in "Giant Woman", Garnet did not seem surprised and simply asked her if she completed her mission. Later, in "The Return", Opal recognizes Garnet's leadership and awaits her command to fire her arrow/arrows, working together without problems while attempting to destroy the Gem Warship. They also work fairly easily together in "Log Date 7 15 2", where Garnet seems entirely unfazed by Pearl's and Amethyst's sudden fusion and simply states that they did a good job lifting.

Tin bên lề[]

TR - Opal — A height comparison between Garnet and Opal.

Ngoại hình và khả năng của Opal có nhiều phần giống với Pearl .
- Việc này cũng liên quan đến vũ khí của Pearl; Pearl's spear not only makes up the recurve bow but the arrows are visually similar to the energy blast her spear can emit. Meanwhile, Amethyst's whip merely acts as the bowstring.
  - However, Opal's bow has two yellow flexible star-shaped cross guards that are identical to Amethyst's whip.
Opal is the only Gem with an exclusively ranged weapon. This is most likely due to Pearl's spear having the ability to create multiple energy blasts despite being a melee weapon. She can also throw this spear with impressive speed and accuracy, wielding it with impeccable skill.
Opal appears to be almost twice the size of Garnet. It should be noted that in all her appearances Opal seems to stand on her tip toes, increasing her height.
Pearl mentions Opal as an "amalgam". This is also the name of their fusion dance theme.

Opal's entry in "Guide to the Crystal Gems".
Opal is among the most human-looking fusions; only Garnet, Stevonnie, and Rainbow Quartz have more human-like appearances.
In the "Guide to the Crystal Gems" Garnet confirms that Pearl and Amethyst create a perfect balance when they form Opal but can easily break apart if either of them loses concentration for a moment.
- In the "Fusion" short, Opal is referenced as an example of how fusion is hard for Gems who have trouble collaborating.
  - It is suggested in "Giant Woman", that Amethyst and Pearl used to fuse more often because they used to get along better.
When Opal's arrow bubbled the Gem Shards from the Big Bird, her bubbles were colored mint-green.
Opal's fusion dance is shown the first time in "Log Date 7 15 2".
- Additionally, Amethyst and Pearl are shown to have a much easier time fusing than before.

In "Know Your Fusion", an illustration of Opal is seen on a "test your strength" device. On this device, Opal is considered stronger than Garnet, but not as strong as Sugilite.
Opal currently has the most regenerations out of all currently existing fusions with the exception of Stevonnie, who's outfits mainly consist of Steven and Connie's combined.
