Pearl/Story
Last updated 2026-09-08
The current CEO of Planarcadia, obsessed with studying the essence of art.
Profile
Pearl is a rank P45[1] senior manager of the Strategic Investment Department in the Interastral Peace Corporation, a member of the Ten Stonehearts, the current CEO of Planarcadia,[2] and the chairman of Pearluxe Corp.[3] She has shown interest in the Mechanical Emperor's Wars and the Borderstar Trade War, and reached out to Herta to use the Simulated Universe to gather information on that period of time. Herta knew of Pearl because fellow Genius Society member Screwllum had mentioned her, causing Herta to deduce that she's an Intellitron.[1]
As a member of the Ten Stonehearts, Pearl has been given a Cornerstone, an extension of Diamond's power.[4][5] Jade, Aventurine, and Topaz note that she is particularly good with "art," though the former two note that she doesn't think about the future.
Appearance
Pearl has the appearance of a petite woman with periwinkle eyes and long beige hair with blue tips that extends past her waist, which is styled into a hime cut in the front with fringe bangs and two asymmetrical twintails on either side of her face. She wears a blue shell-shaped headpiece on her forehead, and has blue and pink fish-like ears. While not visible on her hands, the seams typically seen on Intellitron bodies are visible on her legs.
In the Myriad Celestia Trailer Stoneheart's Oath Ring: Both Ends of the Scale, Pearl is shown wearing a dark blue waistcoat overtop a white button-up blouse, and a long, dark blue, ankle-length skirt. She finishes the outfit with a coat in the same shade with a brown scale pattern and triangle pattern. She also wears a gold colored ribbon-like tie on her blouse with dark heeled shoes.
History
Pearl took an interest in Silver Wolf after her battle with Screwllum. She monitored her banned accounts after the events of Companion Mission Punklorde Mentality and would leave crumbs behind for her so she could lure her in.
Following the defeat of Irontomb, she announced that the third stage of the ongoing Worlds Reborn Initiative will focus on "artistic innovation" as Planarcadia's cultural revitalization progresses.[6]
During the Phantasmoon Games, Pearl noted that the Aeonic games were steering off course and was in possession of several masks required to participate in the games. When she learned of Skott's death, she asked Ashveil to help investigate the matter, though he had refused her requests for a while before agreeing to do so. Silver Wolf would later meet her in order to obtain one of the masks in her possession. Pearl expressed doubt about trusting the Stellaron Hunters, but Silver Wolf offered to teach her imagenesis. She eventually agreed to give her a mask, and to seal the deal, she exposed her aether editing, having known she was meeting with a hologram and took one of her data slices so they could have a more honest conversation.[7]
