Padparadscha's delayed reaction causes herself to be scanned, but she gets saved from the blast by Lars. When Lars is scanned, but not detected, she predicts that Lars is safe from the Robonoids, which only target gems. When the Shattering Robonoids appear again, she warns the others that they are about to be found. Fluorite later explains that Padparadscha can only predict things that just happened.

She then predicts that the Rutile Twins will bring two strangers to their current location. Padparadscha first appears from behind a pillar when Steven and Lars enter the Kindergarten. Eventually, she joined a group of other defective Gems, hiding with them in the tunnels of an abandoned Kindergarten to avoid being shattered and resided there for eons. Padparadscha was considered defective and cast aside due to her visions being of events that have already occurred, rendering her visions useless. Despite actually witnessing the events she 'predicts', her visions always seem to surprise her, making it possible her vision and sense of time as a whole are delayed. This was shown to be detrimental to her safety when the Off Colors were under attack, with Lars, Steven, and Rhodonite having to protect her. She seems to rely heavily on her predictions, causing her to have delayed reactions to things happening around her. Despite being a Sapphire, her predictions are always late, leading her to announce events that have already transpired as if they have yet to happen.

Padparadscha has a cheerful and kind personality. Her gemstone is located on the back of her right hand. The skirt is peach, and it has an reddish orange upper layer with an off-white trim and is tied back into a three-notched bow. Her attire consists of a off-white, peach, and reddish orange floor-length ruffled gown, with a off-white collar, shoulder pads, and elbow-length gloves. She has a coral orange complexion, plump lips, and shoulder-length, pale peach hair, with bangs covering her eye and a cowlick on top of her head. Padparadscha is a Gem with the same height and a very similar appearance to Sapphire.
