Morganite is one of the Gems who mainly does patrol duty. Goshenite is their partner and tends to follow their decisions. Morganite has a pink color scheme, and wears the winter or summer uniform depending on the season. They also wear the standard black shoes, but no gloves or socks. Their hair is long and voluminous, which they braid before going to sleep at night. They wear a pony-tail in the summer. Morganite is always ahead of themself. They're overconfident and brashly make decisions, such as when they went to handle a small sunspot with Goshenite without going Kongo-sensei first. According to Phosphophyllite they're violent, arrogant, and often looked down on Phos despite being yelled more by Sensei, but despite that they were fun to be around.

Land of the Lustrous
In the mysterious future, crystalline organisms called Gems inhabit a world that has been destroyed by six meteors. Each Gem is assigned a role in order to fight against the Lunarians, a species who attacks them in order to shatter their bodies and use them as decorations. Phosphophyllite, also known as Phos, is a young and fragile Gem who dreams of helping their friends in the war effort. Instead, they are told to compile an encyclopedia because of their delicate condition. After begrudgingly embarking on this task, Phos meets Cinnabar, an intelligent gem who has been relegated to patrolling the isolated island at night because of the corrosive poison their body creates. After seeing how unhappy Cinnabar is, Phos decides to find a role that both of the rejected Gems can enjoy. Houseki no Kuni follows Phos' efforts to be useful and protect their fellow Gems.
