Lapis Lazuli

"I'm Lapis Lazuli, and you can't keep me trapped here anymore!"

- Lapis to the other gems.

Lapis Lazuli is a former blue Crystal Gem and the (former) main antagonist in the Steven Universe season 1 finale episodes, "Mirror Gem" and "Ocean Gem".

Appearance/Personality/History
Lapis is a blue crystal gem with a light blue dress with water wings. She has a lapis luzili on her back.

Lapis is resentful of Earth and has a personal vendetta against the Crystal Gems (Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl) since they care about the Earth more than the Gems, and furthermore, they locked her in a mirror, which Steven let her out of by plucking her gem out of the mirror, thus freeing her from the mirror prison. Lapis then takes all the water from Beach City in order to heal her cracked lapis gem. Lapis almost kills Steven, Connie, Lion, and Greg Universe, but Steven saves them with a shield. He then goes to see Lapis and notices her gem is cracked. Steven fixes this by doing a spit take on his hand and briefly pats Lapis's back which heals her gem. She then thanks Steven, returns all the ocean water back to Beach City and flies off into space, redeeming herself. Back at Beach City, Garnet acknowledges that Lapis made it off the planet, and Pearl to ask what does it mean for them. Garnet just says to wait and see. Meaning Lapis may return.

Trivia

 * She is the first non-fused gem to be discovered, as well as the first to not be previously established in earlier episodes.

 * Lapis is the second crystal gem to have a last name. Due to the fact that her gem has two words in its name.
 * The first being Rose Quartz.
 * Lapis Lazuli is the only Gem with a color scheme that only consists of four colors, making her the simplest colored Gem.
 * Her appearance is similar to Pearl's.
 * Lapis is the only gem so far who has not been shown summoning a weapon.
 * It is possible that she doesn't have the need to summon her weapon or doesn't have one at all, as the only weapon she really needs is her ability to control water.
 * In mythology, Lapis Lazuli are associated with gods, power, spirit, vision, royalty, honor, wisdom, and truth.
 * Unlike the other gems, Lapis Lazuli is callus towards Earth.
 * She's hinted that the gems may not be from Earth.
 * Lapis is one of the only Gems shown so far to not have a star on her clothing. The other is Peridot.
 * This may be because having a star is a symbol of being a Crystal Gem, which Lapis isn't.
