Basic introduction:
As said above, the main focus of this mod is on the all new crystal biome
I noticed there weren't very many biome mods, so I decided to try one myself.
The mod has:
- 92 new items
- 8 new tiles
- 8 new NPCs
- 1 new biome
Original
Update 6/10 - Added new lighting
Update 6/18 - Added fountain in center.
Update 6/21 - Improved textures and added radiant ore.
Update 7/24 - Added trees and overhauled backround
Content (some of it):
Callandor. Dropped by crystal king. Arkhalis upgrade.
Crystilium Blade. Made with Crystilium. Launches crystal embers
Quartz spear. Inflicts a dangerous spreading debuff
Crystal edge. Found in crystal chests. Creates sharp crystals while being swung, that fall on enemies
Geode. Found in crystal chests. Low damage, but creates deadly crystals after a few impacts.
Prism blade. Does very high damage, but consumes life.
Solar crystal sickle. Crafted with solar fragments and Crystilium. Launches 3 ever-slowing solar crystals.
Slamborite. Launches gems out.
Shining trigger. Launches bullets with VERY high damage, but low velocity
Gemshot. Dropped by hardmode crystal mimics. Shoots 3 arrows that explode into crystals on impact
Crystilium bow. Just launches arrows (up for change)
G.E.M. (or geological extermination mechanism). Dropped by hardmode crystal mimics. Uses gemstones are ammo, each with different speeds, damage, and pierce.
Shining Trigger. Dropped by Crystal King. Shoots slow moving, high damage bullets
Shimmer. Shoots out a burst of bullets in quick succession.
Sharpshot. Launches out crystals on use
Royal shredder. Drop from crystal king. Shoots out crystals like a mini-gun
Prismatic boomstick. Launches out a burst of bouncy prismatic bolts.
Crystilium Sceptor. Launches crystal bolts.
Crystal staff. Launches A giant crystal that explodes into shards.
Glowstrike. Found in crystal chests. Launches a mana stealing fireball.
Mana drainer. Launches a bolt that gives back 15 mana, but costs 10.
-------------------------------------
Enchanted gem staves!
Each one has a different special ability. Crafted with 10 radiant prisms, 15 shining crystals, and the original staff, these staffs are very unique.
Enchanted gem staff. Crafted with all of the enchanted gem staves. Launches quick crystal fire at random speeds in quick succession.
TRUE gem staves. Crafted with enchanted gem staff, broken archmage staff, and Crystilium. Again, all have unique effects, that combine into...
Terra staff.
Crystal monocle. Dropped by crystal mimic. +10% magic and ranged damage.
Shining gemstone. Dropped by crystal dwellers. Material.
-------------------------------------------------
Gem rings!
Crafted with metal and gems, these rings all have unique abilities, and are good early game accessories.
Also, diamond ring is now craftale, and worth a lot less (sorry!) and gives its own ability.
I have awoken. Who has broken the ancient barrier between light and dark? Who let this chaos happen?! They will pay.
Meet the crystal king. Summoned at the fountain with the cryptic crystal. Spawns crystal cultists, and throws shimmering waves and crystal swords at you.
It's one hell of a fight, but totally worth it for the powerful drops.
Possible drops:
Shining trigger. Launches bullets with VERY high damage, but low velocity
Slamborite. Constantly throws out damaging gemstones.
Shimmer. Shotgun that sprays bullets fairly rapidly
Callandor. Arkhalis upgrade.
Quartz spear. Spreads a debuff that makes enemies create crystals that do damage and spread the debuff.
Crystal wings. Drops crystals.
And a secret expert item
Also drops 10 - 15 Crystilium, which can be used to craft the following:
FAQ:
How do I get the key to open the crystal chests?
Crafted with golden key and 5 shining gemstones
How do I obtain the cryptic crystal?
Crafted with ectoplasm, crystal shards, and enchanted geodes.
I noticed a bug about this mod. How can I make sure it gets fixed?
Leave a comment, or for even higher chance, Private Message me about it.
What is an RPC?
Rocket propelled crystal, sold by the cyborg if you have a shatterrocket
When am I supposed to fight the crystal king?
You're technically susposed to fight him around duke fishron tier.

There once were 2 great powers that ruled the land, light, and dark. They lived in peace, until war broke out. Ancient creatures battled and fought, leaving only death.
The war raged on, until eventually, a dark being ventured, to trap the light inside an ancient beast.
When they succeeded, a great power burst out of where the light was, merging with the dark, forming magic crystals, that grew over the land, destroying what little remained of the light.
The souls of light and dark binded, and the great power was kept in a pool.
Millions of years pass, and because yin cannot live without yang, the dark dwindled into horrible, weak mutations, unable to think.
The crystals, however, grew underground, and became more powerful. Desiring to keep its current power, it locks the rest of the underground off.
These ancient crystals, overtime, attracted beings from the undergrounds. They drank from the pool, and lost their mind for power. They formed a tribe underground, spreading the fortune of the shining caves.
Realizing that the pool was going out of balance, favoring the light, the king of the tribe decided to sacrafice his soul to create an infinitely flowing fountain to keep the forces in balance.
Eventually, a man arrives in the world. A brave warrior he was, he set on a quest to defeat the dark forces, and slay the horrible beast that trapped the light.
Little did he know, however, that slaying the beast would only be the beginning of his journey
