[@Akayaofthemoon] It should be noted that Eve lacks the durability of most gems and is unable to shapeshift. She's not particularly faster than most gems but she is very nimble and adaptable, though that's more of a learned skill than anything.

As a certain Watership Down quote goes:

[i]" “All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.” [/i]
