History
Pearl originates from the Gem homeworld, her name actually being a model of Gem who are mainly servants assigned to obey the orders of another Gem. In Pearl's case, she was assigned to serve Rose Quartz. In time, when Rose led the rebellion against their home world on Earth when Yellow Diamond was attempting to make it into a colony, Pearl taught herself to fight alongside her mistress as their relation of owner and servant becomes one of friendship and a one-sided love. Pearl and the rest of the surviving Gems under Rose make their home Earth over the next several millennia before meeting Greg Universe, whose presence made her unable to express her feelings for Rose and made gradually tone down her ideals of Gems being superior to humans. In time, Pearl become one of the guardians of Rose's son Steven Universe and learns to stand on her own feet rather than in the shadow of the boy's mother.

Personality
Out of the Crystal Gems, Pearl is the most poorly adjusted to life on Earth, being unaware of human social conventions and culture, such as jokes, games, arcades, food, and birthday parties. She even though humans less before meeting Greg, her basic values changing over time by the time Steven was born. Despite this, she finds certain aspects of Earth rather amazing and mastered skills such as swordsmanship and mechanics. Pearl is a perfectionist with a wide range of knowledge on many topics who values organization with a penchant for symmetry, easily flustered and overwhelmed when confronted by failure something she cannot comprehend, leading to act with lapsed judgment. Despite her perfectionism, Pearl has really low self-confidence and a strong inferiority complex to be acknowledged by others. This appears to stem from her inner turmoil over her feelings for Rose, desiring to feel stronger than she already is while coming off as overbearing guardian to Steven before he becomes able to defend himself. But she eventually begins to stand up on her own two feet to take initiative and believe in herself rather than letting others define her as a person.
