Description
Gems are shiny stone like creatures that haunt the shadows of tyria. They can appear randomly in any explorable area and will need to be killed within two minutes or they will dupicate using the skill, Duplicate

Not much is know about the Gems as they don't leave a corpse when the die, instead a humourous note with the word I<3gems! scrawled eight times. This is the origin of their name. One eyewitness account of a merchant and collector in The Falls gave this lore related speculation:

"Gems seem to attack travellers more in the shadowy areas, they never step into the sunlight but love water, and cast playful spells on each other while in. I see many on my daily strolls around this area at mid-day, they stick to the trees while the sun is high, so i manage to see them and write notes on them."
