SHATTERED

a reskin of
world of dungeons: turbo
The Great Diamond Authority has been the absolute
power within the sparkling cosmos for uncounted millenia.
Homeworld's influence was felt from one end of the galaxy to the
other, with innumerable planets offering up their raw elements to
help grow new and varied Gems to serve the Diamonds. No other
world dared to resist Homeworld, and thus peace and order was
maintained.
It was a surprise then, when some flawed Gems upon a small, blue-
green colony, rose up against their masters for the sake of the
primitive, carbon-based creatures that had developed there. In the
violence that ensued, the perfect form of the beloved Pink Diamond
was destroyed – her life extinguished – blemishing the perfection of
the Great Diamond Authority forever!
Since that tragedy, the word of the Diamonds goes unquestioned.
Some imperfect Gems, no matter how well-intentioned, have been
crushed or worse in the name of protecting Homeworld, Gems you
have known and worked with. But recently, rumor has spread that
the original traitors, the Crystal Gems, have not only survived
judgment, but are striking back again! Taking their rebellious spirit
to heart, you and a precious few other Gems have started to push
back against the tyranny of the Diamonds, in the hope of finding the
Crystal Gems and joining their cause!
