From The Codex

Background

Steven Quartz Universe is the titular main protagonist of the TV show of the same name, the film based on it, and its epilogue series. He is the son of Greg Universe and Rose Quartz, the only known hybrid of a human and a Gem and the first Crystal Gem of human descent. As a result of his parentage, Steven is an extraordinarily unique being with innate powers beyond that of normal humans and Gems. While he was only a child, Steven steadily grew from a tag-along to the Crystal Gems into the heart of the team thanks to his kind-hearted nature and resourcefulness.

Steven is devoted to protecting humanity and helping those in need just as Rose Quartz did, and though her monumental legacy once forced Steven to live in her shadow he has since surpassed her by ending the authoritarian practices of the Great Diamond Authority and establishing peace across the galaxy. However, the consequences of his mother's mistakes continue to haunt Steven and those he cares about to his growing frustration. Additionally, as his friends and family continue to grow and start to go out into the world and beyond, Steven has begun to struggle with his own self-identity and what he wants to do with the rest of his life. He has also started coming to terms with suppressed trauma that he has built up over the course of his years of adventures and near-death experiences with Gems.

At the end of the series, however, after holding his feelings in for so long culminates in him transforming into a giant Gem monster after coming to the conclusion that he is one, Steven's friends and family manage to get through to him with the power of love. In the months following, he decides to leave Beach City to go on a trip to see the world and find himself.

Powers and Abilities:

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Weapon Creation & Energy Manipulation (Can summon his shield though he can't properly control when he can summon it by this point, it is described by Garnet that the way one summons their weapon is by linking their mind with the energy of all existing matter, channeling the collective power of the universe through one's gem), Weapon Usage (Uses a shield in combat), Attack Reflection (With Shield), Limited Shapeshifting (Can turn his fingers into living cats and overtime the rest of his body), Forcefield Creation (Can create a forcefield, this also allows him to breathe underwater), Age Manipulation (Can age himself based on his emotions), Regeneration (High-Low. His bones passively heal themselves the moment injuries occur, however he will still have facial injuries such as a black eye), Sealing and BFR (Can bubble objects and send them off to wherever he imagines as home), Healing (Can heal injuries such as Connie's sight and cracked gems), Vibration Manipulation & Matter Manipulation (Can cause vibrations with his shield that cause water clones to completely disperse, which requires molecular vibrations to even break apart water), Plant Manipulation & Life Manipulation (Like his mother, Steven possesses limited control and influence over plant life. Using his healing saliva, Steven can grow sentient and sapient flora by licking plant seeds. In "Watermelon Steven", Steven discovers he can grow watermelons shaped like himself. They act as his bodyguards, but they are not directly under his control, and the Watermelon Stevens ignore his orders and attack whoever they think is threatening him), Fusionism (Can fuse with other gems and humans), Limited Teleportation & Dimensional Travel (Can use warp pads to enter warp space and teleport to other areas with warp pads), Telepathy (In "Horror Club", Steven can sense the Lighthouse Gem Monster's presence as well as its emotional state), Technological Manipulation (In "Maximum Capacity", Steven appeared to be able to control Greg's TV-based upon his emotion), Resistance to Acid (Able to resist Centipeetle's acid, which could liquefy solid objects near-instantly), Gem-Weaponry (Because Steven is half-human, he is resistant to anti-Gem weaponry. He can pass through the yellow destabilization fields used in the Gem Warship and can grab the live end of a Gem Destabilizer with only mild discomfort. It is unknown what long-term exposure would do to him. However, repeated strikes from a Gem Rejuvenator will render him powerless)

All previous powers and abilities to a greater extent, Enhanced Shapeshifting (Can easily shapeshift now), Spike Manipulation & Size Manipulation (Steven can change the size of his bubble, as well as change its shape from a sphere into a variety of other shapes - for instance, causing sharp spikes to appear along its surface, or stretching it to encompass and protect other people), Dream Manipulation, Mind Manipulation, & Possession (First shown in "Super Watermelon Island", when he can take control of a Watermelon Steven, Steven can transfer his consciousness into another living being he has a connection with while his own body is asleep. The true mind of the host body lays dormant while he is in control of it. The full extent of this ability is unknown. In "The New Lars", Steven has shown to be able to possess someone (in this instance Lars) he thinks about while he sleeps. It is shown in the episode "Escapism" that this ability is strong enough to reach from Homeworld to Earth. In "Steven's Dream", Steven can link his mind with another being. This power allows Steven to feel the target's emotions and see the world through their eyes. For example, if the target is crying, Steven will cry as well, regardless of his current emotional state. When Steven sleeps, his dream will be whatever the target is looking at. Steven does not have to willingly link minds with a person for this power to work since he did not originally know his mind was linked with Blue Diamond. ), Density Manipulation, Gravity Manipulation, & Levitation (As shown in "Steven Floats", Steven, like Rose, can levitate his body and even manipulate its gravity based on his emotions. When he thinks happy thoughts, he floats slowly to the ground, while when he is sad or angry, he descends much quicker. While floating slowly, anything he touches will also float just as slowly, no matter how large. This also allows him to jump higher than normal, having to be able to jump up to the temple's face and even above the clouds. It was first seen in "Rose's Scabbard" as Steven leaps to a floating land island to reach Pearl, however, her turning to suddenly look at him causes him to break in concentration and fall to catch himself on the island's roots. Steven is shown to have some control over his powers in "Steven vs. Amethyst" and in "Monster Reunion" when he easily leaps up to get to Nephrite's bubble and safely descend again. He displays his ability to jump extreme distances again in "Steven's Dream", when attempting to catch Blue Diamond's ship, but is blasted back by the ship taking off), Resurrection & Dimensional Storage (Like his mother, Steven possesses the ability to resurrect the dead with his magic tears. The recipient turns pink and gains special abilities, such as the ability to grant access to the Pink Dimension through their hair as well as an extremely slowed metabolism and heart rate. Two known cases of this are Lion and Lars), Limited Purification (Steven can temporarily reverse the effects of corruption on gems, though all 4 diamonds are required to permanently reverse the effects of corruption. Cure Song cures everyone's status conditions), Aura & Astral Projection (While interacting with Blue and Yellow Diamond in the astral dimension, Steven was able to manifest and project a powerful pink aura, which convinced them that he was truly Pink Diamond reincarnated), Statistics Amplification (Strength, Durability, Luck), Summoning (Steven uses his bubble shield to encase a Gem in it, protecting them from 1 hit. When the counter in the bubble, the enemy that is attacking takes damage, provided that the strike was a melee), Limited Psychometry/Retrocognition (First shown in "Jungle Moon", when fused with Connie as Stevonnie. He can relive moments experienced by his mother Pink Diamond, either as an observer or as Pink Diamond herself. This has only occurred when he is sleeping somewhere of great significance to his mother. When fused, the subjects of these memories can appear as amalgamations of figures both components consider to be similar. Steven was unaware of the nature of the memories at first, and it can sometimes take him a while to realize he's reliving Pink Diamond's experiences), Statistics Amplification (Can amplify one's statistics with "Coach Steven")

All previous powers & abilities to a greater extent minus Amethyst-related abilities, Energy Projection & Light Manipulation (Rainbow Quartz 2.0 can create a rainbow wave from their hands, each hand connecting both rainbow's ends. Can fire rainbow-colored balls of energy for offensive purposes as well as a rainbow energy-wall that both defends and causes damage to enemies. Can fire a rainbow out of her parasol while using it for flight), Flight (Rainbow Quartz 2.0 can ride their parasol as if it were a witch's broomstick. When flying, the parasol gives off a rainbow-colored trail-boost), Telekinesis (It is shown that Rainbow can manipulate and repulse (pressurize) someone/thing by slashing their "target" with their parasol, forming a white weak aura. This is shown when they repulse Onion to the top of a staircase)

All previous powers & abilities to a greater extent minus Pearl & Amethyst-related abilities, Surface Scaling (By combining Steven's shield and Garnet's gauntlets, Sunstone can wield a pair of suction cups, allowing them to scale up certain objects), Breaking the Fourth Wall (Sunstone has the ability to break the fourth wall, and speak to those watching the show), Large Size (Type 0)

All previous powers & abilities to a greater extent, Precognition (Obsidian possesses Sapphire's Future Vision, however, it is useless as the number of Gems make it sound like "a cacophony of noise" according to Rebecca Sugar), Fire Manipulation, Magma Manipulation, & Breath Attack (When Obsidian was eventually formed, their eyes produced a fiery aura. This ability appears to be a buff of Ruby's thermal regulation and pyrokinetic touch. Obsidian's third mouth acts as a forge and is filled with lava, which they use to craft their greatsword. This ability seems to be exclusive to Obsidian, and not obtained from any of their smaller forms, although this may be an amplified reflection of Ruby's thermokinesis), Shockwave Generation (Can create shockwaves just by moving and screaming),

All previous powers & abilities to a greater extent minus fusion abilities

All previous powers & abilities to a greater extent minus fusion abilities, Inorganic Physiology, Regeneration (Low Godly. Gems will be able to continuously come back from nothing as long as their gemstone remains), Immortality (Types 1 and 3), Body Control, Biological Manipulation (Gems are able to create biological components for themselves including a womb), Self-Sustenance (Types 1, 2, and 3. Gems do not require eat or sleep, and can breathe in space), and Pocket Reality Manipulation (All Gems have a pocket dimension of infinite size contained within their gemstone), Resistance to Gravity Manipulation (Gems passively adjust to the force of gravity), Age Manipulation (As this is Steven's gem itself it does not physically age like other gems and thus is unaffected by being aged), Biological Manipulation (Does not contain any true biological components and is thus unaffected by such abilities), Blood Manipulation (Gems have no blood and thus cannot have it manipulated), Bone Manipulation (Gems are light-projections and have no skeletal structures and thus cannot have it manipulated)

All previous powers & abilities to a greater extent minus fusion abilities & gem abilities, Perception Manipulation (He can move so quickly that time is nearly standing still. This ability is demonstrated in "Fragments" when he runs away from the Crystal Gems or races against Jasper. Smoky Quartz is demonstrated to also be able to use this power as in "Guidance"), Rage Power (When facing Jasper or when angry at The Reef, Steven demonstrated incredible power far beyond his natural strength), Power Scream (Steven possesses a scream that, by Pink Pearl's own words, "could shatter the walls." As seen in the episode "Volleyball", this scream was powerful enough to almost completely ruin the Reef, creating a large crater beneath him, breaking many lights and cracking the walls), Berserk Mode (Monster Steven is the Berserk Mode of Pink State when Steven viewing himself as a monster), Enhanced Forcefield Creation (Able to create large walls of forcefields, offensive projectile barriers and spiked projectile walls, and large dome forcefields that close in on targets cutting through anything in it's path), Large Size (Type 2. As Monster Steven he can grow up to over 100 meters), Resistance to Empathic Manipulation (Resisted Blue Diamond's empathy aura), Transmutation and Possession when in Berserk Mode/Monster Form (Resisted Yellow Diamond's ability to alter the physical form of gems & cannot be possessed by White Diamond)

Standard Equipment: His Shield, Pink's Warship (By Season 5 and on)

Optional Equipment:

  • Rose's Sword
  • The Glass of Time
  • Laser Light Cannon
  • Watermelon Stevens
  • Light Prism/White Light
  • Replicator Wand
  • Peridot's Escape Pod
  • Gem Shards
  • Cheeseburger Backpack
  • Hot Dog Duffel Bag

Intelligence: Average (Extremely naive, and lacks knowledge of higher concepts, not even knowing words like "procrastinate", this is due to his lack of any school and the gems beings ignorant on regular human behavior and understanding. However, thanks to his dad he has shown knowledge in why things like thunder exist showing that he has operational thought. This is further supported in his various usage of creativity in beating enemies in his early adventure that can be formed by young children. In terms of combat he originally struggled due to the Crystal Gems starting off being generally incompetent [when it comes to training their first hybrid] and having a harder time teaching him how to fight along with him wanting to use movie based moves, however overtime with Connie he started training more with Pearl and getting far better in basic combat. Near the end of Steven Universe Future he trained more with Jasper allowing him to get better in combat)

Standard Tactics:

Steven naturally has a harder time summoning his weapons and instead tries to use his surroundings in order to beat his opponents. He also tries friendly conversation to try and convince them to stop what they're doing.

Steven by this point is able to control his powers and uses his shield combat in conjunction with his levitation. Trying to get someone to stop fighting is still apart of his strategy though.

Like his Season 2-5 self he is far more better at using his powers and will normally try to outlast his opponent until they give up or finally see the error of their ways. An example being his fight against Spinel. He will also heal himself.

As these powers are still new to him he doesn't have full control over them however he uses them to greatly amp his statistics and use of abilities like perception manipulation to move far faster then his target.

Monster Steven is essentially mindless meaning it's only real feeling is to destroy or attack whatever is around it.

Weaknesses: Has virtually no control over his powers in the earlier seasons making him unable to use a lot of them and at times even when he could use them he could nearly get himself killed in the process (I.E. nearly aging himself to death), though this weakness is for the most part gone. A majority of Steven's abilities are empathy based and thus are based on his emotion, which means if he's not in the right state of mind or believes he can't do something he will not be able to use his powers or they will weaken greatly. Steven is also naturally pacifistic meaning he will normally not use outright force in combat and instead just tries to outlast the opponent and survive their attacks. He is also fully against killing and if he does kill by accident it will completely break him mentally. The removal of his gem will cause him to not only briefly go unconscious but also slowly kill him if he's not brought back, it should also be noted doubly so that a gems durability is lower then it's body's as shown with characters like Amethyst's gem cracking from a fall off a cliff and if one's gem breaks they are not only unable to sustain their form but continuous damage to the gem will cause it to shatter and thus would kill Steven in the process. Going into others dreams too much will get him more and more sleepy. His abilities are very uncontrollable in his pink state and the state responds to what he views himself as (I.E. Steven viewed himself as a monster so he became one). Steven is also naturally a fighter that works better with partners then on his own, he's even explained to Peridot that he himself can't do a lot compared to the Gems. This is also further on Steven's weapon which is defensive based, though it does have some offensive applications to it. Not only is the Glass of Time no longer useable due to Steven breaking it but if he was to actually do the 2-C feat he would kill himself in the process as shown with Future Steven. Steven's intelligence while it grows better over the series makes him do a lot of dumb decisions, like when he shouted when Pearl clearly told him to keep quiet or forgetting to bring the statue to save the spire and due to the gems pampering him he's had a hard time learning from these mistakes. Due to being a hybrid Steven does not have any of the natural physiology-based abilities a gem has, and while he can resist gem weaponry his gem itself can not, as shown when Spinel's Gem Rejuvenator affected his gem having him lose all of his powers. Steven's greatest weakness was his immaturity. Despite being brave, caring, intelligent and quick-thinking, he often let his youth, naivety, optimism and excitability get the better of him, only causing problems or making them worse rather than fixing them. This aspect faded as he matured and became stronger and less excitable. However, he still retained the tendency to try and look on the brighter side of situations and act as a bigger person. There have been many times where Steven was trying to make friends out of enemies — although his attempts have backfired on multiple occasions — while other times, along with his inherited gemstone, led many others to mistake him for his mother or a reincarnation of her. In the movie, his desire for a "happily ever after" led to Spinel renewing her assault which he only realized when she had him within an inch of his life. He was shown to have inherited his mother's overbearing, controlling nature and tendency to run from personal problems by focusing on others as seen in Steven Universe Future which also showcases Steven's emotional outbursts that cause power surges and even damage to his surroundings as an aspect of his mother's behavior revealed earlier in "Volleyball". Additionally, Steven has only just begun to realize the magnitude of the countless dangers he was exposed to while living with the Gems and throughout the entire series, resulting in him turning into a giant monster. He can only temporarily remove corruption from a gem and requires the 3 other diamonds powers to revive and restore someone permanently.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

  • Shield Dash: His basic attack where he dashes toward his target with his shield over his arm, damaging enemies in his path and knocking them back.
  • Super Duper Shield Dash: A stronger version of the regular Shield Dash that does higher damage, double knock-back, and is guaranteed to give lucky strikes.
  • Encourage: A move Steven has from the start. Steven encourages one of the Crystal Gems, healing them by 10 Harmony. Upgrades to this move increase the healing amount by 5 each time, ending up as a maximum of 30 Harmony.
  • Bubble Shield: Steven uses his bubble shield to encase a Gem in it, protecting them from 1 hit. When the counter in the bubble, the enemy that is attacking takes damage, provided that the strike was a melee. In "Sworn to the Sword", it is shown that Steven is capable of summoning it reflexively, as he instinctively summons his bubble to protect himself and Connie due to his wariness of Holo-Pearls as a result of the events in "Steven the Sword Fighter". In "Nightmare Hospital", it is shown that Steven can expand his bubble to push away enemies. In "I Am My Mom", Steven used his bubble to free himself and his friends from Topaz, though it required a great deal of concentration to do so. In "Bubble Buddies" and "Bubbled", it is implied that the bubble can generate its internal atmosphere, as Steven and Connie could survive in the bubble for hours despite it being airtight and Steven is even able to breathe inside one he had just generated in the vacuum of space. While the bubble is incredibly durable, it is better at withstanding short, narrow bursts of pressure, such as being hit with a harpoon, than a large amount of pressure constantly being applied over a large area of the bubble, such as in "Nightmare Hospital", when the Gem Mutants hit Steven's bubble, the pressure causes little ripples to spread across the bubble, and in "Gem Hunt", when the Snow Monster stomped on his bubble with enough force to cause it to lose its circular shape and pop.
    • Shape Alteration: Steven can change the size of his bubble, as well as change its shape from a sphere into a variety of other shapes, for instance, causing sharp spikes to appear along its surface, or stretching it to encompass and protect other people. The versatility of this ability has increased as Steven has grown, and is fully on display during his battle with Spinel in Steven Universe: The Movie.
    • Bubble Gloves: Steven can create small, hard bubbles around his fists like boxing gloves, enhancing the strength of his punches and his ability to block attacks.
    • Popping: Steven can "pop" his bubble to knock surrounding enemies back, as seen in "Nightmare Hospital", where he knocked much larger Gem mutants back by popping his bubble. His bubble will also pop if he is startled, as seen in "Sworn to the Sword", when Pearl startles Steven, or if immense pressure is applied to the bubble, as seen in "Gem Hunt" when the Snow Monster popped Steven's bubble by stomping on it.
  • Ukulele: Steven uses his ukulele to play a song that has a variety of effects depending on the song. Each one must be unlocked separately.
    • Cure Song: Cures everyone's status conditions.
    • Defense Song: Boosts everyone's Defense.
    • Strong Song: Buffs everyone's Attack. It is better to use the Get Beefy Song unless everyone is fully healed.
    • Lucky Song: Buffs everyone's Luck.
    • Get Beefy Song: The best song. It boosts everyone's Attack and heals everyone fully.
  • Cheeseburger Backpack: Where Steven stores the items. Steven has this move from the start but it is unusable until you get an item. Steven uses an item that does an effect depending on which item it is. Certain items, like gemstones and Level Up Charms, cannot be used in battle.

Key: Season 1 | Season 2-5 | 2 Year Timeskip | Fusions | Pink Steven | Monster Steven

Note: Sapphire's feat was calculated to be 485 tons, assuming a fusion doubles one's power Garnet would be 970 tons, which is 30 tons off of Small Town level, thus the sheer difference in power between Garnet and the Diamonds should be able to give a possibly rating for Small Town level.
