Entities that have gems or crystals that make up at least part of their own body tissue. In various works of fiction it sometimes appears as some sort of monster, alien or even on occasion a Mineral MacGuffin. It may even be some sort of Power Crystal (especially if they're mechanical in nature). The gem(s) or crystal(s) may even glow at times in the entity's life to show a reaction towards events going on in its life. Of course it's even more likely to be used due to Rule of Cool. Subtropes include Carbuncle Creature, for creatures based on, or which are, carbuncles; Crystalline Creature, where a creature is composed solely of crystal and nothing else; and Gem Heart, where the mineral component is a single large gem somewhere in the being's body. Compare with Silicon-Based Life, Body to Jewel and Rock Monster. |

The Crystal Exarch in the Shadowbringers expansion is slowly turning to crystal due to his affinity with the Crystal Tower of the Allagans. One arm, most of his neck, and part of his cheek are already converted — any other parts are hidden under his robe. His mobility is unaffected. |

In the Exalted setting of Autochthonia, people have 'soulgems' implanted on their foreheads at birth. Souls are a finite and vulnerable resource in Autochthonia, so their passage into a new body is assured by the living recycling the soulgems of the deceased. Another reason for the practice is that a soulgem's type indicates the caste of the person it belongs to, enabling the higher castes to more efficiently oppress the lower. | |

Chrysalis (RinoZ): The golgari, as they mature, choose a type of rock to permanently bond to their skin, imbuing a measure of life into the stone to form their "true skin". Granin chooses a cheap but plentiful material, making repairs easy, but it's not unknown for extremely wealthy individuals to use diamond. Anthony chooses mutations that gradually turn more and more of his carapace into diamond, until eventually the whole thing is sparkly and glittery and yet still flexible (the supporting underlay helps). |

Dungeons & Dragons Dark Sun Monstrous Compendium Appendix II: Terrors beyond Tyr: The dagorran is a giant frog-like creature with green crystals growing out of the top of its back, under the neck. These crystals are the source of the creature's tracking and psionic abilities. The leader of a pack of dagorran has a larger growth of crystals than the other pack members. Some earth genasi — Uneven Hybrids of humanoids and earth Elemental Embodiments — have crystals growing out of an otherwise humanoid body, or geode-like fissures in their flesh. Part of the process for a lich to transform itself into a demilich is to create eight soul gems and incorporate them into its body, empowering it to consume people's souls. The most famous demilich, Acererak, appears as a skull with gemstones for its teeth and "eyes". A gem stalker's skin is studded with bright crystals that pulse with psychic energy, which allow it to communicate telepathically and which can be fired as a ranged attack after being imbued with various magical effects. The gnomish deity Garl Glittergold is commonly depicted as a dapper gnome with gemstones for eyes, symbolizing his affinity for all mineral wealth. |

Steven Universe: Steven has his mother Rose Quartz's gemstone where his belly button would be. The Gems and Gem Monsters occupy a hazy borderline between this and a fully Crystalline Creature. Technically, their bodies are less "made of gems" and more Hard Light constructs around a central core that is a gem. As a result, the gemstone embedded in some part of each Gem's anatomy is in a sense their "actual" body. |

RuneScape has the gemstone dragons: dragons with dragonstone, onyx and hydrix gems naturally embedded into their bodies. They were originally born from the eggs of a crystal dragon, which was created by the dragonkin Vicendithas when he magically infused a white dragon with elven crystals. Dragonstone, in particular, was a gemstone not found in the wild, leaving Vicendithas to name it after its source. | |

The DCU: Superman: The All-American Boy was part of a black-ops project by the US to create a team capable of stopping Superman. He started as a normal human soldier, but was modified with Doomsday's DNA and Kryptonite, creating a monster with spikes of the radioactive mineral growing in place of Doomsday's bone plates◊. The Killers of Krypton has Empress Gandelo, who has multi-faceted crystals protruding all over her skin. In Supergirl storyline Death & the Family, one ancient, cursed jewel belonging to Silver Banshee's clan becomes embedded in Inspector Henderson's hand.

Ultra Series: A few members' bodies are adorned with crystals, which serve as sources of their energy, notably Ultraman Ginga and his partner, Ultraman Victory. The body crystals are later carried over whenever Ginga and/or Victory lend their powers to another Ultra, such as when Ultraman Orb borrows Ginga's powers to create his Lightning Attacker mode, or when Ultraman Zero uses both Ginga's and Victory's powers for his Zero Beyond form. | |

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy XIII: While the physiology of this process is never exactly explored in detail, when the l'Cie in the Final Fantasy XIII mythos make their Faustian Bargain, a small crystal forms somewhere inside their bodies that allows them to manifest their superpowers and grows larger as they become stronger (this serves as the in-universe justification of the Crystarium subsystem). Eventually, when the l'Cie fulfill their end of the deal they made, the crystal grows so large that it completely encases them, freezing them in an eternal stasis. Final Fantasy XIV: The full-blooded Garleans have a small pearl-like growth in the middle of their forehead, called a Third-eye. The Crystal Exarch in the Shadowbringers expansion is slowly turning to crystal due to his affinity with the Crystal Tower of the Allagans. One arm, most of his neck, and part of his cheek are already converted — any other parts are hidden under his robe. His mobility is unaffected. Final Fantasy XVI: Those capable of naturally using magic suffer "the Crystal Curse". The more they use their magic in life, the more parts of their bodies turn to pale crystal. In its advanced stages, entire limbs become useless and the afflicted suffer constant, agonizing pain until they finally die from organ failure or use so much magic that they crystalize completely. |

Superman: The All-American Boy was part of a black-ops project by the US to create a team capable of stopping Superman. He started as a normal human soldier, but was modified with Doomsday's DNA and Kryptonite, creating a monster with spikes of the radioactive mineral growing in place of Doomsday's bone plates◊. The Killers of Krypton has Empress Gandelo, who has multi-faceted crystals protruding all over her skin. In Supergirl storyline Death & the Family, one ancient, cursed jewel belonging to Silver Banshee's clan becomes embedded in Inspector Henderson's hand. |

Atlantis: The Lost Empire: Contact with a Power Crystal changes Commander Rourke's flesh to the same glowing blue crystal. This doesn't seem to have interfered with his bodily functions, as he showed no signs of ill health until Milo hoists him up to the blimp propellers, shattering Rourke to a million pieces. | |

Temtem: This is a common motif among Crystal types, if they're not outright Crystalline Creatures. Many have crystals on their claws and/or foreheads, but the Lapinite line takes this one step further and have a ridge of crystals down their backs. | |

Arknights: Originium is known to cause an incurable disease called Oripathy, where the mineral assimilates into living cells and turns them into more Originium. Oripathy often manifests as patches of Originium crystals visible on the skin, and the body of Oripathy sufferers can dissolve into active Originium dust upon death to infect even more people. | |

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is set in a world where a widespread demonic affliction causes the victims' flesh to randomly crystallize, often forming unsettling stained glass-like shapes. The heroine of the game is also afflicted and has multiple patches of crystal on her body, most prominently a rose-like one over her heart. | |

Final Fantasy XIII: While the physiology of this process is never exactly explored in detail, when the l'Cie in the Final Fantasy XIII mythos make their Faustian Bargain, a small crystal forms somewhere inside their bodies that allows them to manifest their superpowers and grows larger as they become stronger (this serves as the in-universe justification of the Crystarium subsystem). Eventually, when the l'Cie fulfill their end of the deal they made, the crystal grows so large that it completely encases them, freezing them in an eternal stasis. | |

Dark Souls has the semi-crystallized undead populating the (mainly) Duke's Archive, who have magical crystals sticking out of their bodies that give them various sorcerous abilities. Across the franchise's three games, Crystal Lizards have also been a source of rare Titanite crystals, being tiny Fragile Speedsters... until the third game had some consume souls and grow enormously into crystalline monsters with an appetite for souls. | |

Flight Rising: Skydancer dragons have crystals on their foreheads. There are several genes that can have this effect on a dragon, such as Gembond (embedded gems all over the dragon), Opal (parts of the body turn into opal), or the paired Crystal and Facet genes (makes the dragon's skin crystalline on either the main body or their wings). |
