I'm having some trouble coming up with effects for the stones listed above. Most of them are fairly new, and most without a prominent backstory. The best I can say about them are that they are ridiculously expensive and that they were owned or crafted from the De Beers Diamond Corporation. Maybe we should give them a bifurcated artifact, or a stacking effect?

Considering the shadiness of De Beers, and the fact that they get most of their diamonds from disreputable mines that use child or even slave labor, we can give them a stacking effect related to cruelty or greed. Owning a single diamond makes the user greedy, but each additional one makes him/her greedier and uncaring towards the suffering of others.

Or do we want to go with the Green Lantern emotional spectrum on this, and give each color a different power? Or maybe we can use that whole birthstone myth? The idea being that each stone can protect against some form of illness or misfortune, or bring specific luck?
