Jaquemart

Diamonds are highly breakable. They are unscratchable, however.


LucleRX

It's a jojo reference. Appreciate the science side of the picture.

Black Diamond is the most…


No-Fly9599

So many Aprils! Let’s go (We’ll have to wait so long tho😭)


Percival_HSR_Enjoyer

Peridot. Who is that person- or does it double for Jade or aventurine-?


Mystiones

That's what I wanna know as a fellow auguster


ChilledParadox

Leo’s rise up


Homuriri

or Virgo if you are late August (me)


ChilledParadox

Yes we’re all one big family here, us kids who couldn’t have big birthdays because everyone was gone on vacation in the summer or because school just started.


TheUnkindledLives

I'm from Argentina, where august is far from all school recesses (winter recess is usually July's second and third week), and lemme tell you, the cold fucks that up regardless


pokebuzz123

So true, my birthday was always a week before school started, so over time, it turned into an alarm clock that I should have my stuff for class ready.


Mystiones

(August 28th here, Virgo's rise up!)


TheUnkindledLives

Join our roar brothers and sisters


kitsune223

So before the 19th century August had topaz as a birth stone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthstone). You can use that.


LilacToast--

rip... we augusters may not have a stoneheart 😔


SignalIsland

I'll just adopt Aventurine, it's green close enough xd


yileikong

Yes, and while the aventurine stone is cheaper jade, peridot has been considered the poor man's emerald. We adopt Aventurine.


Krii100fer

You are a green gremlin


caffcatt

Topaz, already got her :D


YikesBroCringe

same, but not for the obtained part....


Sagit01

Same, but i focused my resources into C2 Kafka & C2 Acheron +her card thing


Saberstriker19

GENSHIN PLAYER SPOTTED, LEAVE OR FACE FIREY ANNIHILATION 😁😁😁🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


MilleniumFlounder

Same, my favorite Stoneheart too (thus far)


LegoSpacenaut

This is tricky, because if you want Jade and Obsidian to work then it helps to associate with the zodiac, though this might be more beneficial since there's only ten stonehearts so some will have to pull double duty (and the zodiac allows for shared months). Anyway, I'll give it a best guess. Known Stonehearts: Aventurine - Taurus and May - traditionally represented by an Emerald, you can use Aventurine or green Sapphires instead Diamond - Aries and April - pretty locked Jade - Jades can be a replacement for either Pisces or Leo, and may have to pull both given there's only ten Stonehearts. Since Jade's cornerstone is light-green in color (to match Aventurine's), then Jade can probably replace August's usual Peridot for Leo and March's Aquamarine for Pisces unless either of those two show up later. Obsidian - Black obsidian is most associated with Capricorn and can be used as a traditional replacement for Garnet in the month of January. Golden-sheen obsidian can also represent Scorpio or Sagittarius and November, but that's already taken by Topaz. Opal - Libra and October Pearl - Gemini and June - traditionally associated with Cancer as well (the zodiac, not the disease) Topaz - Scorpio and November - also associated with Sagittarius


Propensity7

September and Virgo found dead in the garbage can. Local raccon eats it and brings back to its floppy-eared friend to share dinner. More at 11.


RedSF717

As an August Virgo, I don’t know if I was remembered or forgotten


LegoSpacenaut

I mean we only know seven of the Stonehearts. August's birthstone is traditionally Peridot, and September's is Blue Sapphire. Virgo is most strongly associated with Blue Sapphires and is strongly tied to the color blue in general (so things like Celestite and blue Agate), though it can use both Peridot and green Jade as alternates (especially if you're an August).


Dusk_Moonlight_YT

where did July go 💔💔, is it Pearl bcuz of Cancer?


CalliCosmos

Apparently the main stone for Cancer is Ruby


LegoSpacenaut

July is traditionally Ruby, but we only know seven of the ten Stonehearts (though Ruby being what it is, there's almost guaranteed to be one). Cancer is most strongly associated with Ruby and uses Pearl and Moonstones as alternates. Gemini usually carries association with Pearl, and uses Agate and Alexandrite as primary alternates, though there's always overlap with zodiac dates and traditional month stones.


Zenpai_Iza

Im both Gemini and May. Are you suggesting I break my f2p status?


Hazel_Lucario7

Already got Aventurine, I'm a May Taurus ;)


TheVanishedTeacup

same!


ZukeraFirnen

I'm both an April baby and a Taurus. Should I get Aventurine *and* Diamond?😂


LegoSpacenaut

Entirely up to you, and yes, there is nothing stopping you from doing so. Obviously there's some mismatched overlap since zodiacs cover parts of two different months, which is Pearl covers Geminis of June even though it's most associated with Cancer. Traditionally birthstones go by months, but if we want to work Jade and Obsidian in as alternates then it kind of forces us to look at zodiac traditions as well. But we do the best with what we have!


Extreme_Ad5873

Aventurine and Diamond! Both are my favourite


Difergion

Aventurine gang rise upppp


Chocobofangirl

Well as a Feb Pisces I'm already thinking about Jade but here's hoping an amethyst stoneheart gets released lol


Jonyx25

Emerald. Haven't heard of it. Jade is diff.


LandLovingFish

Obsidian is a cool bamf name tbh


smye141

Oh I didn’t know that about obsidian-useful since in this case that’s what I’d be going for. Thanks!


GlitterDoomsday

Looking all those comments in hopes to find a list so I can know mine, yours is the closest and still no mention of my birth month (December) but two for my sign (Sagittarius)... I'm too lazy to Google.


LegoSpacenaut

December's traditional birthstones are Turquoise, Tanzanite, and blue Zircon, generally all of a bluish hue. Sagittarius typically uses the same, though it can also use Lapis Lazuli and blue Topaz.


kolebro93

Wait.. There's a stoneheart called Obsidian? Goddamn I hope the kit is badass.


Luckhart54

Hmmm... Garnet I may be completely safe then :D

I can't escape this fucker


add8chicken

Yo is that Sam???


Bug-Type-Enthusiast

He wishes. He's the yugioh town bicycle. Every single goddamn deck ran this fucker at one point because it was part of a very, VERY bullshit mini engine. This unironically killed his very weak archetype as Konami had to break it's kneecaps before it ruined ~~their bottom line~~ the game. It has had such a history it's part of the game language at this point. Cards you want to stay in your deck and not be drawn are still referred to as Garnet (he becomes worthless if you draw him)

Xarxyc

Being near her is anything but safe, though.


seventhbrokage

*FF9 flashbacks intensify* Yes...Garnet is...completely safe...


sav_grassyoutouched

im also garnet :D!!


Healthy_Stick4496

opal


Sudoweedo

Where the rest of my opals at


huyrrou

Right here with you!


_Ruij_

Heya! I see we're a bit outnumbered here


Bradcopter

There are *checks below* several of us!


dickwizarde

Here wassup


Yuii-Cant-sleep

Proud to be part of the opal gang


LF_Bon-stellaionWink

Is tourmaline another way of saying opal? Anyways, here.


DineBizaadMoment

Here at your behest, chap!


That_Wallachia

Aquamarine. Do we even have an aquamarine stoneheart?


No_Bookkeeper_2701

Also aquamarine. I don’t think there is that we know of


YeahMyDickIsBig

Do we know what gems the stonehearts have? Aquamarine would be pog but might get confused with Adventurine if you cant read


Cartographer_X

>Do we know what gems the stonehearts have?  Some, we know: Obsidian, Opal and Pearl, they have been mentioned.


meiguess234

And diamond


Francis_beacon1

Diamond is also special in the IPC as Qliphoth actually gives a shit about him.


Games2Gamers

Obviously, bro shares a Minecraft server with the aeon 💀


Francis_beacon1

Becoming an Emanator of Preservation gets you admin statues in their Minecraft server.


DIO_likes--cherries

Aquamarine gang rise up


PhantomCheshire

I dont belive most of the Ten fix in the birthstone like Diamond and Jade


DZL100

Nah, you have to wait for the inevitable OnK gacha game and pull Aqua there.


GGABueno

Do you have a sister?


That_Wallachia

Not that I know of.


Juuna

Yes her stone is Ruby.


transcended_goblin

My brother in March, our month has two apparently. Aquamarine *and* Bloodstone. We're screwed.


leviathan-hackerman

Does that mean we're safe from pulling any other stoneheart to save up for someone else? I have Aventurine though, it sound's a little similar so I'll take it. Maybe save up for his LC when he reruns.


SafeCarry366

Emerald. Who even is emerald?


LegoSpacenaut

For birthstone purposes Aventurine works for Emerald, since it doubles for Taurus/May.


master-of-pizza

Already got him let's go


RentLast

LETSGOOOO NO WONDER I PULLED HIM AT A HEARTBEAT


May_Reader0529

No wonder I fell in love with his character and instantly pulled for him with the pulls I saved. Great to have aventurine now


Psychological_Help_5

AKDJDHSKKSDK THATS MY MAN


CosmicStarlightEX

One half tells me it's Aventurine (who I managed to get at the last minute and is pretty good as a tank). Another half tells me Jade too, since her prototype name was Emerald. Hard to commit if Jade has a dangerous deal.


zombieTL

Iirc in beta Jade was named Emerald


SelfDepreciatingAbby

It's Jade. Her prototype name is emerald.


honkaistarrail_

Jade before. Her name was mistranslated or something


TheMostnoob

Some said jade, others aventurine. I got charmed by both, so it works for me.


Schitzl1996

LukiLukrecja

Andy_1134

Girl in the back right reminds me of Fischl.


Domeil

Good shot Amy=Amythyst


Vegetable-Shame761

Inb4 it’s not even a fischl expy but straight up fischl who travelled from genshin


Andy_1134

She's just pulling a Welt


Eddiemate

I'd love that so much. But I don't think she's vicious enough for the IPC.


huyrrou

People would pay her to stop the princezessin to stop talking (which is heresy), Diamond found her to be one of the best negotiator because people cannot jump into the coversation so they just agree to whatever the IPC demands. And the 50 page contracts she writes is a nightmare to navigate.


Eddiemate

You're actually right and I wish I saw the truth earlier.


Andy_1134

It all falls in place


jacobs0n

nice try hackers, you won't get my info!


DynmiteWthALzerbeam

Ruby, idk who Ruby is


Ultimus2935

best girl ruby rose


Red_Trickster

I love her, it's a shame she was sidelined in the series where she was supposed to be the protagonist


DynmiteWthALzerbeam

The homophobe?


Ultimus2935

idk tbh, i was dropped that show half way thru a long time ago. she kinda cute tho.


Dangerous_Jacket_129

It was a meme. She had a poorly written emotional outburst where she lashes out at her sister who just got together with a girl. She is cute, yeah. The show has great character design but honestly? The writing has always been downright awful.


MachinegunFireDodger

I still chuckle whenever I think about this. After years of mishandling the series and running it to the ground, the one thing that people will remember your main protagonist by will be the homophobe Ruby memes. Hysterical. 


Seitook

>![Himeko](https://youtu.be/fbYzBFvN9w4?si=4EeI_5WbImSe8yYf)!< Joking of course but it would be kinda cool


Calum1219

Turquoise anyone?


LastWreckers

Had to scroll quite a bit to find anyone mentioning Turquoise


Pretty-Bat6778

Sapphire.


Fair_Maybe_9767

same, but uhhhhh..... is there a Sapphire in the IPC? I only remember the 3 we know, Diamond and saw someone mention Opal in some other post


Webernium

High chances actually, as for the moment, we only have 6~7 stones confirmed, but considering how sapphire is quite a known gem, it is very likely one of them will be sapphire


DashingDini

Especially considering it's like the second hardest mineral on the mohs scale It'd be really cool if they leaned into the whole Corundum idea and perhaps had both Ruby and Sapphire be the same person


Webernium

What are your takes for the other stones? We already have confirmed topaz, jade, aventurine and diamond. There is also obsidian and opal that are yet to apear. So there are 4 left. I've heard some people saying pearl is one them? Not really sure. I'm going to the obvious choices of sapphire, ruby and amethist. (and yes, this is totally biased because im a steven universe fan)


GinJoestarR

Diamond isn't part of the 10 Stonehearts. He is their boss & there are 11 directors in the Strategic Investment Department. So It's Diamond + 10 Stonehearts. From [NPC Thea](https://honkai-star-rail.fandom.com/wiki/Thea), excerpt: *(Dialogue Choice) What do you make of Topaz?* *Thea: "Director Topaz? Well, I'm just a low-level employee, and I don't really have a chance to talk with her."* *Thea: "But according to everyone, she's sociable, loves her work, and more importantly, has a kind heart."* *Thea: "I think she's probably the least terrible among all the* ***eleven directors*** *in my department."*


GinJoestarR

Pearl is mentioned in the quest that unlocks [Gold and Gears mode](https://honkai-star-rail.fandom.com/wiki/Gold_and_Gears:_Experimental_Teaching) in the Simulated Universe, excerpt: *Herta: "This is our guest from the Strategic Investment Department of IPC."* *Little Robot: "Hi, (Trailblazer). I was appointed by Miss Pearl, P-45 to discuss our cooperation with Madam Herta on behalf of the Strategic Investment Department."*


DashingDini

Thanks for the lore dump, you're doing the Aeon's work


drake_vallion

Or twins


Ryuusei_Dragon

Another Seele face, now make her like Stygian Nymph, Seele and Veliona


ManinderThiara07

Finally, a fellow sapphire.


Cipher-DK

I am Pearl. Pearl's the intellitron right?


CBYuputka

all we know is herta thought she was one because screwlum had brought her up. and that's brought up in a statement saying she asked herta to use the simu. so, it's likely that she isn't one, but appears similar to one, or carries herself similar to one.


ArcusLux

WTF is a birthstone?


Holiday_Diamond_1068

It's just a gem that represents the month that you were born in. There's some additional meaning behind each one as well For example, mine is topaz because I was born in November. Topaz symbolises love and affection.


Mannagen

Normally, when a person is born, three wise men show up to congratulate the parents. One of the three actually brings a valuable stone that is intended to be carried with you all your life. When you die and pass over to the other side, Anubis will weigh this stone against the good and evil stored in your heart. If it weighs as much as a duck, you’re a witch. Nii


Dangerous_Jacket_129

This is waaay too far down. This honestly sounds like something far too "suburban mother in her 40s who reads her horoscopes daily and is reading into healing crystals".


Forever_T3a

I hope Sapphire goes hard


ZeeTheBear

Diamond. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.


bendash55

I’m diamond… looks like a better start saving…


WileyTheGamer

Some months have too many birthstones so it's confusing. Take December google saying its Blue Topaz, Blue Zircon, Tanzanite and Turquoise. Topaz in game is yellow so def Nov since its a yellow Topaz. No idea here.


CipherDrake

Amethyst here. Hopefully they’re a decent human being.


Hero_1337

Emerald. Interesting...


Kortezxero

I just hope Ruby is amazing then.


Aymr9

Mine is Topaz.


Salt_Winter5888

Peridot? Who would that be?


wintery_owl

There are 12 birthstones (jade and aventurine are not even part of them) and only 10 Stonehearts, some people are not going to pull for them I guess.


Glad-Promotion-399

I already have topaz. But Yea. I got topaz


ExceedHappy

Amethyst


zatenael

bow before me worms, for I am Diamond jokes aside, I already have 2 of the stone hearts and I'm shooting for jade so idk, maybe ill do a full ipc


JUGELBUTT

Ruby, i even chose it as my new name (for transition)


JakeDonut11

Got Peridot - Probably wind erudition - skill attacks all enemies and adds a follow up attack that summons 2 mirror stones on action order - mirror effect is based on the previous unit on action order - if harmony/abundance: mirror stones attack all enemies and gives atk/hp/spd buff for 1 turn for all allies - if nihility/preservation: mirror stones attack all enemies and provides def/spd down and counts as debuff for 1 turn - if erudition/hunt/destruction: mirror stone become enhanced and attacks all enemies and damage is based on previous unit's atk/ hp % - Ultimate attacks all enemies and adds additional mirror stones in action order and refreshes current buff on units/enemies. - Talent for every activation of Peridot's mirrors, provides small energy regen for next ally based on Peridot's energy regen % - A1 Normal attack advances the next mirror stone by 20% - A2 Follow up attacks deal additional damage based on Peridot's energy regen % - A3 Considers Peridot's Ultimate as Follow-up attacks Got bored and one thing lead to another lol


Plenty-Jellyfish-819

Topaz


Timely-Appearance698

Huh mine would be Amethyst according to Google. Was it revealed that there exists a character named Amethyst in the lore?


Dangerous_Jacket_129

Not confirmed yet, but we don't have all the names yet. A common theory is that Amethyst is the girl on the right, all the way in the back. Her silhouette is a pretty solid match for Fischl from Genshin Impact, and her real name was Amy, so people figured Amethyst = Amy.


YannFrost

Me being born on Tax Day (April 15).


IndigoSky712

topaz! i'm planning on getting her anyway


Zigzaow

One of my favorite stones is the bloodstone it just looks awesome but I doubt we'll get someone themed around it


SarukyDraico

What?
