Diamonds are a Magical Girl's best friend. They are also friends to Mons, Doomsday Devices, space rangers, magical knights, Humongous Mecha, and regular old Robots. So if you want something to look highly advanced or incredibly magically powerful, just slap a Mineral MacGuffin on it; just like a normal MacGuffin, it doesn't even have to do anything to be neat! You see, while it's been fine for gold and silver to coast by on their prettiness to be worth something, in our fiction we seem intent on making jewellery work for their value and turn them into a universal battery so popular for energy storage it makes the AA look shameful. In a magical setting, they'll often be called "The Eye of..." and Power Glows will be in full effect, leading to the crystal being a Glowing Gem. In science fiction settings, they tend to be welcome with the Sufficiently Advanced Alien races. They also can appear in less advanced settings when doing the job of "focusing crystal", not directly making the energy themselves but somehow being able to turn any other energy source into Stuff Blowing Up by having lights bounce around off the internal angles. Your Mad Scientist or Evil Sorcerer will probably be using such a crystal to power his Death Ray. In a Video Game, these gems are usually the Power Sources and weak points of the robots containing them. They also dim or crack when under a heavy battering, or sometimes even blink like a half-broken LCD display. Robots who are killed will frequently have their crystals dim and go opaque. Power Crystals may be faceted or completely round and smooth. Depends on the design aesthetic. Choice spots to bling out your power armor are: Forehead, as a "Third Eye" Shoulders, as a military epaulet Center of the chest (rarely, over the heart), as with "Iron Man" Below the navel, or as a "belt buckle" The back of the hand, as with "Lensman" The palm of the hand, as with Iron Man's Repulsor Rays On the knees (but for some reason, rarely the top of the feet) These may not always exactly be crystals or jewels. Oftentimes lenses and emitters also perform this duty, by virtue of their placement. If extemely powerful, a crystal may be an Amulet of Concentrated Awesome or an Artifact of Doom. When actually used for attacking, that would make it a case of Gemstone Assault. Compare Crystal Spires and Togas, Gem-Encrusted, Green Rocks, All-Natural Gem Polish, Body to Jewel, Crystal Prison, Silver Has Mystic Powers, Gem Heart, Mystical Jade. A Sub-Trope of Everything's Sparkly with Jewelry (why else would this power be contained in a gem?) A Super-Trope to Data Crystal. This item is available in the Trope Co. catalog. |

StarCraft: The Protoss Khala relies on Khaydarin crystals, which can focus, store, and amplify their Psychic Powers and allows them to join minds. The pylons, the ones you need more of, are basically giant floating chunks of the stuff. The "minerals" that are harvested by all three races are also some kind of crystal. Protoss units are also often adorned with power crystals. Starcraft 2 has some units, like the Warp Prism and Void Ray which are built around them. The fluff describes the Warp Prism as a "computer built into the lattices of a crystal". This gets amusing in Starcraft 2, when a Protoss crystal is brought on board the Hyperion and studied in its lab. The crystal grows and eventually begins emitting a lot of power, but the lab tech cannot figure out where said power is going. Turns out the crystal had tied itself into the ship's power grid without anybody noticing, and is now helping to regulate the ship's systems and keep them all at optimal performance levels. Also, it's probably sentient. |

In The Witchlands, some witches can infuse gemstones — most commonly quartz — with their magic, allowing people without their power to use them. The most common of these are painstones, which serve as anaesthetics, and firestones, which seem to emit light or heat depending on how they're made and are used to make lamps and lighters. | |

Devil May Cry 4: The Savior has blue gems on its forehead, chest, and both of its arms, shoulders, and legs. In-game, these serve as The Savior's weak spots. For best results in order to save Nero, Dante has to destroy them all, although the gem in the chest is considered the most vital weak spot, as damaging it would directly and significantly reduce the boss's health bar. | |

Crash Bandicoot: Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back has purple crystals literally named Power Crystals around which this game as well as some that follow center and are main objective of your efforts. Their power is only vaguely described (it is stated gathering Master Crystal and 25 Slave Crystals allows Cortex to brainwash entire Earth to do his bidding) plus they get New Powers as the Plot Demands in post-Naughty Dog games; in Wrath of Cortex they're used to put Elemental Masks into hibernation and in Twinsanity Cortex uses them to power up his dimensional-travel device. There are also gems in almost all games. In Crash Bandicoot (1996) they are mostly used just as platforms, but in Cortex Strikes Back they explicitly power up N. Brio's laser that destroys Cortex Vortex. |

Many of the later Tales Series games include these, usually enhancing each characters abilities, though some cases are more relevant to the plot than others. They're usually assumed to be naturally occurring crystals that just sort of appear in the world. They never are, and are usually either Powered by a Forsaken Child or some form of Lost Technology. | |

SD Gundam has crystals being used in various forms. Musha Gundam makes much of a 'Gundam Crystal', an artifact which is often split into separate parts and handed down to successive generations of heroes. Some versions of the series also have the Mushas house crystals on their torsos, inside of which are their 'GunSouls'. Upon death these crystals exit the body to await reincarnation. | |

Fallout: Equestria: Most of the Magitek both ponies and zebras used was powered by enchanted gems. This was in fact the cause of the war: While the ponies needed zebra coal for their industry, the zebras needed pony gems for their magic. A zebra assassin finds out the hard way that, due to Rarity's special talent of finding gems, even being completely invisible isn't a defense if your stealth cloak is powered by a gemstone. | |

My Little Pony: My Little Pony 'n Friends: The Heart of Ponyland is a large multicolored crystal from which all of Ponyland's magic originates. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In general, crystals and gems are strongly associated with magic within the series' world. The Elements of Harmony, some of the most powerful magical artifacts in the series, take the form of golden necklaces (and one "big crown thingy") each encrusted with a large jewel resembling its bearer's Cutie Marknote so a star, a diamond, a lightning bolt, a butterfly, an apple, and a balloon for Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie respectively, although when wielded by Luna and Celestia in the past they resembled plain-cut gemstones. The Element of Magic, specifically, is alongside the Dazzlings' crystal necklaces among a category of things that aren't depowered in the transition to the human world in Equestria Girls. The former suffers a change in magical properties and becomes able to respond to any wielder, rather than the bearer it originally attuned to. The Alicorn Amulet, an Artifact of Doom that corrupts the wearer, is encrusted with a large, blood-red gem. Similarly, the necklace that Twilight later dons in her rematch against Trixie features what appears to be an emerald; when it is revealed that the necklace is fake, this trope is invoked when the jewel promptly falls off and breaks. The Crystal Empire, in the far north, depends upon the Crystal Heart, a large, magical heart-shaped crystal which protects the Empire against threats and the arctic cold when powered by the crystal ponies' happiness. In a more Mundane Utility role, orange-red crystals are sometimes seen being used instead of fire. Numerous fireplaces in the in-universe story in "A Hearth's Warming Tale" are filled with such crystals. In "The Crystalling", Sunburst's home includes a cauldron warmed by a cluster of glowing crystals arranged like a fire pit. A similar arrangement appears in "A Health of Information", where Meadowbrook and her mother use it in lieu of fire to heat their cauldron. My Little Pony (Generation 5): One of the primary differences between how magic works in G5 versus G4 is that is presence centers on three crystals, one for each pony type, being assembled and active. As long as harmony exists among the pony races, the crystals are fused into a single glowing, floating gem, and sustain the magic of the world. |

In Naruto, Naruto wears a crystal pendant that belonged to Tsunade and, before her, to the First Hokage. It can be used to hold back the Nine-Tailed Fox possessing him, but when he reaches six tails, Naruto deliberately shatters the crystal. | |

Several times, Kryptonite is a formidable power source. Generally done in the interest of making things harder for Superman, Supergirl or other Kryptonians. For example, it was the power source for Metallo in his original incarnation, though with no anti-Superman malice at the time (all the scientist who made Metallo happened to have on hand when he made him was some Kryptonite). | |

RWBY: There is a crystalline substance known as Dust which was pivotal in humanity driving out the Grimm and establishing society. By the beginning of the series, the Schnee Dust Company led by Weiss' father Jacques Schnee have a monopoly over Dust distribution throughout the world of Remnant. Dust not only powers people's weapons, but also acts as fuel for vehicles and ammunition for firearms. It can be woven into clothing and be directly fused with a person's body (though that is extremely dangerous). Hazel Rainart is able to fuse Dust into his body without feeling the pain due to his Semblance Numbing Agent making him unable to feel pain. | |

Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman: Warbringer: In order to save her home and break the bloodline curse on the titular Warbringer, Diana uses a crystal called a Heartstone that has the ability to teleport the user anywhere out of Themyscira the user chooses — on the downside, it can then only be used to teleport back to Themyscira. Wonder Woman and the Star Riders: Each of the Star Riders has a star jewel with magic properties that give the wearer additional control over an elemental power and help keep natural elements of the world in balance. All the gals have a spot for their jewels on their belts. The Legend of Wonder Woman (2016): The Heart of Baetylus is at first presented as a crystalline chunk with great and dangerous necromantic power, and is eventually revealed to be a broken off chunk of the "Baetylus," the solidified and crystallized souls of a dead world, that forms the core of the "Titan" which once tried to destroy life on earth. |

The Tears of Gaia: There is a very ancient magical artefact called the Tears of Gaia. According to the Creation Myth, it is a gem created by Gaia with her own shed tears and the powers of the dead Alicorns are stored inside the Tears. The power found inside can be enough to wipe out most of the world! Most nations and the Blight want it in their possession, the other nations for defence and the Blight to expand its influence faster. | |

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back has purple crystals literally named Power Crystals around which this game as well as some that follow center and are main objective of your efforts. Their power is only vaguely described (it is stated gathering Master Crystal and 25 Slave Crystals allows Cortex to brainwash entire Earth to do his bidding) plus they get New Powers as the Plot Demands in post-Naughty Dog games; in Wrath of Cortex they're used to put Elemental Masks into hibernation and in Twinsanity Cortex uses them to power up his dimensional-travel device. | |

Power Rangers and Super Sentai: The Choushinsei Flashman had their Prism Flash henshin devices, which provided them their powers — in one episode they were damaged, only for them to get their Mid-Season Upgrade via the prisms getting repaired. Despite sharing their names with the trope title, the Power Crystals in Season 1 of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers aren't really examples — they're energy projections from the Power Coins that, when plugged into the Zords, become solid and cause the Zords to combine into the Megazord (and, once combined, they act as the joysticks.) They're not separate power-granting artifacts. In Mighty Morphin' Alien Rangers, the Zeo Crystal is an artifact of potentially world-ending power sought by Rita's father. It ends up broken up, and when later found, each of its five parts gives the Rangers a new set of powers as the Power Rangers Zeo. Its power is said to grow over time. The Zeo Rangers also have "Zeonizer Crystals" inside their morphers ("Storage Crystals" in Chouriki Sentai Ohranger). Separate from the Zeo Crystal itself they also are only seen making the Zords combine into the Megazord. In the Power Rangers (2017) movie reboot, the Zeo Crystal is even more important, despite never being seen. Turns out a Zeo Crystal is the source of every life-bearing planet's ability to support life, which means if Rita got her hands on it, Earth would die in short order. In Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger and Power Rangers Wild Force, the Rangers wield Gao Jewels/Animal Crystals, tiny orb-shaped gems with a model of an animal inside, which they use to summon and combine their Zords. The Dino Gems from Power Rangers: Dino Thunder, pieces of the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs and absorbed the creatures' power in the process. The Energems from Power Rangers Dino Charge seem to qualify, as they charge up the Dino Chargers used to power the Rangers' tech. The Mashin Sentai Kiramager draw their power from sentient magic jewels called Kiramei Stones. Thanks to Juru's creativity, he's able to use their magic to turn them into Humongous Mecha vehicles. |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Angels have glowing crystal cores which cause the creature to shut down or, in the Rebuild continuity, explode (with a Rain of Blood as an after-effect) as if their body was made of gelignite when sufficiently damaged. Evas, which are essentially man-made pseudo-Angels, more sensibly hide theirs under several tons of armour. There are exceptions to this rule, however, as not only do some Angels, like Leliel, Bardiel and Iruel lack visible cores, but there are some, like Zeruel, who can conceal his core behind a protective membrane (or ribs in Rebuild) should its AT Field be breached. That said, the original series' Ramiel was just one big, octahedral Power Crystal / Wave-Motion Gun. | |

Thunderbolts: Moonstone's name and powers are derived from a Kree gravity stone that was found on the Earth's moon and bonded with her nervous system. The stone gives her the power of flight, intangibility and laser blasts from the hands. For a time, she had absorbed a second gravity stone which also granted her the ability to control gravitational forces, erectforce fields, generate miniature black holes, and transport objects through dimensional rifts. One story gave a Meta Origin to many of the MU's power crystals, revealing that the Moonstone, the Power Prism, the Bloodstone family's Bloodgem, Man-Wolf's Godstone, Basilisk's Alpha and Omega Stones, the Sphinx's Ka-Stone, and the diamond that empowered Blue Diamond were all part of a Lifestone Tree created by the Kree in co-operation with other races. |

Kyber crystals are quite rare, and are found in appreciable quantities only on a handful of planets. Ilum served as the Republic Jedi's primary source thanks to its rich crystal caves, but was mined to exhaustion by the Empire; other sources include Christophsis, Jedha, Lothal, and Exegol. Expanded universe material, both Legends and Disney, includes a handful of other sources, such as the Adegan system and Dantooine, a handful of unique gems, and some more unorthodox variants — for instance, the peals formed in the guts of Krayt dragons can also be used for this purpose, if you can get them out of the dragon in the first place. | |

With Strings Attached: Lots of examples: Paul is basically one big human-shaped power crystal—his hair, teeth, and nails are all magical diamond, and his bones may be as well. And he got that way by unknowingly grabbing onto a Trap Gem, which turned him into a diamond statue. John's Kansael is a blue teardrop-shaped diamond. The skahs wizards cast some of their magic through diamonds. |

Apparently just clarity and sparkliness is required of said crystals, Jedi can "sense" if it's good or not. (They don't even apparently need to be of any particular mineral.) If they're not sparkly enough, the lightsaber will explode. | |

Darkhawk gained his powers from a mysterious gem he found in an abandoned carnival. Many, many years later, it turned out the gem was actually supposed to trap him in another dimension and slowly absorb his life-force as fuel. Only the fact it wasn't designed to work with humans stopped that. Not so much for anyone from an older species who stumbled on to them, though. | |

They're even more central in the Fabula Nova Crystallis series. Specifically, in Final Fantasy XIII, crystals are the source of magic: large crystals power the fal'Cie machine-gods who in turn bless humans with the power of the l'Cie by marking them with a Power Tattoo containing a crystal which grants them potentially limitless power... as well as a time limit and a specific mission. Failure turns you into a shambling monster made of crystal. Success isn't much better as you are frozen in crystal until the fal'Cie or the gods see fit to de-crystallize you and return you to their service. There is also another crystal unique to l'cie, the Eidolith (See the current page image) which allows a L'cie to summon an powerful entity in battle, provided the l'cie impresses it enough to forge the contract. In Final Fantasy Type-0 each of the four nations bears a crystal gifted by fal'cie gods, these crystals in turn imbue the peoples of each nation with a different power. For Rubrum the power of magic but only to the young, the power of weapons to the people of Milites, the power of dragons to the people of Concordia and the power of the shield to the people of Lorica. These crystals can also imbue people with the power of the l'cie giving them unique abilities and eternal youth at the cost of degrading their sanity and absolute loyalty to the will of the crystal. |

On occasion, there have been additional gems, including the once-off Ego Gem. Iron Man has crystals in the palm of his hands as focusers for his repulsors. Also, there's a triangular crystal in his chest. The Saga of Crystar, Crystal Warrior: The wizard Ogeode's Prisma-Crystal. He needs it for pretty much any really powerful spell, and it's also the mechanism for turning normal humans into crystal warriors. Squadron Supreme: The various versions of Doctor Spectrum get their Combo Platter Powers from a Power Prism, a large multicolored gem. Squadron Supreme (2015) reveals it is of Kree origin. Thunderbolts: Moonstone's name and powers are derived from a Kree gravity stone that was found on the Earth's moon and bonded with her nervous system. The stone gives her the power of flight, intangibility and laser blasts from the hands. For a time, she had absorbed a second gravity stone which also granted her the ability to control gravitational forces, erectforce fields, generate miniature black holes, and transport objects through dimensional rifts. One story gave a Meta Origin to many of the MU's power crystals, revealing that the Moonstone, the Power Prism, the Bloodstone family's Bloodgem, Man-Wolf's Godstone, Basilisk's Alpha and Omega Stones, the Sphinx's Ka-Stone, and the diamond that empowered Blue Diamond were all part of a Lifestone Tree created by the Kree in co-operation with other races. |

The Earthdawn roleplaying game features not only crystal plate armor and shields, but also living crystal armor (small columns) and so-called "blood pebbles" (hundreds of small magical gems) that can be implanted into a character's skin and grow by feeding on the magic of the character's blood until they provide a natural armor bonus on the whole body (except the head). Because the crystal is alive and part of the character's body, the character can feel and move with it as if the crystal was his skin. | |

The Stormlight Archive: The currency of Roshar consists of "spheres," gemstone shards suspended in glass, which glow when filled with stormlight. They are often used for illumination, and it's a minor show of luxury when you can "waste" spheres on light. Stormlight also powers the Magi Tech fabrials. What most people don't realize is that stormlight also powers the incredible surgebindings, powers over gravity, destruction, and more. So when an assassin with surgebinding comes after a rich king, he finds limitless power to fuel his abilities. Shardplate is also powered by stormlight, which is one of the reasons it is assumed to just be a Lost Technology version of fabrials (the truth is more complicated). Most suits of shardplate have infused gemstones placed strategically around their structure to power them, and even let them regrow lost pieces with enough time. An early plot point revolves around how a suspicious number of gemstones in the king's armor cracked at the worst possible moment, pointing at an assassination attempt. |

Dungeons & Dragons is full of magic jewelry, both standalone and embedded in other items. Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 introduced a class over the Internet, whose schtick involves embedding crystals into their skin. Precious gemstones specifically. Many spells involved gems as component or focus (e.g. Gemjump — teleport to prepared gem). Sourcebooks on magic items and materials (like Volo's Guide to All Things Magical) have lots of gem-related entries. Psionics has a particular affinity with crystal — most psionic items are made at least partially out of crystal, psions can acquire a "psicrystal" companion, and there are psionic powers that can summon shards of crystal to attack enemies with. Not to mention "power-up" crystals embedded in armor and other items that make them quasi-magical. |

The Flight of the Alicorn: The Adamas Firmamentum, or Heavenstone, is a gigantic, flawless diamond enchanted so as to be able to store magic. It can accumulate an immense charge, either by a single unicorn pouring magic into it over time or many powering it up at once, and can allow a unicorn that has bonded with it to perform feats that would otherwise be impossible for any single mage. The ancient unicorns used it to gather the energy to move the sun and moon. | |

In both Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, virtually all technology from the Sufficiently Advanced Aliens has crystals at its most basic level. Goa'uld have rainbow-colored geometric ones, the Ancients' are clear flat rectangles. In both cases the crystals are mainly used for data storage, which is actually something that crystals can be used for in real life through holographic memory. Then there's the Zero Point Module, perennial MacGuffin and power source. It looks like an orange, glowing lump of quartz. |

Timonium deposits in Rise of Legends look suspiciously like massive crystal formations. These crystals are used for EVERY RACE, including the non-technology based Alin. It is stated on the site itself that Timonium has incredible properties, including mystical ones (so presumably, Alin use it to power spells. Doesn't explain why the Hero Unit just use Mana instead.) | |

The Legend of Zelda: Magical artifacts like the three spiritual stones in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time are often ornate gemstones with gold decorations or the like, while in the same game the silver and golden gauntlets have red gemstones set into them, possibly the source of the extra strength they give you. In addition, the Master Sword, in all its appearances, has a yellow gem set in the hilt where the blade meets the crossguard. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Flavor text attributes elemental powers to gemstones: electricity for topazes, fire for rubies, and ice for sapphires. Several pieces of gear are noted to make use of their properties, such as the heat-resistant Desert Voe armor being inlaid with sapphires. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Fusing a gemstone to a weapon makes it function as a magic rod of the associated element. In addition to the Fire, Ice, Lightning triad of Breath of the Wild, opals hold the power of water. |

Energon stars in Transformers: Energon (the sequel to the above series) were used by the Transformers to create energon weapons. However, the energon star would eventually run out of energy and vanish, along with the weapons generated by it. Energon stars (and weapons) were colour-coded by faction: red for Autobots and yellow for Decepticons. | |

Halo: According to side material, the UNSC is interested in the energy-storing properties of blamite, a high-explosive crystalline material found only on Suban, one of the Elite homeworld's two moons. If that's sounds familiar, that's because blamite is also what the Needler's explosive homing projectiles are made of; let's hope the UNSC's researchers have taken the proper precautions. | |

LEGO: The Rock Raiders gather green energy crystals (one of the video games also included red energy crystals, five times as powerful as the green ones) as part of their main goal, which is to use them to power their Cool Starship and return home. Hindering their goal are the monsters on Planet U which eat said crystals as their main diet. Power crystals of various colors are the main macguffins fought over in LEGO Power Miners, a line very similar to Rock Raiders. The miners couldn't use them, but needed to keep them out of the mouths of rock monsters, since eating the crystals supercharged them and caused earthquakes on the surface. |

The Crystal Gems from Steven Universe get their powers from the gems embedded in their bodies. They use them to materialize their weapons, and also to activate their technology (like the crystal laser cannon seen in the second episode). Magic crystals are also seen on occasion, such as the crystal shards that bring garments to life in "Frybo". It's later revealed, or rather clarified, that the gems are the Crystal Gems: that their "bodies" are really humanoid constructs projected from their gemstones, which can regenerate over time if damaged so long as their gemstone remains intact. This makes them, and the entire Gem species in general, a race of living power crystals. And those magic crystals may also be gems as well, considering in "Secret Team", another group of Gem Shards like the ones in "Frybo" manifest as bunch of hands and feet when accidentally released from their bubble, and the gem powering a magic mirror in Pearl's possession turned out to be Lapis Lazuli. | |

In Tales of Symphonia, Exspheres are crystals that can be used to power machinery, and also enhance people's fighting abilities if equipped properly. Just sticking it on the skin has a rather different effect, though... Many of the later Tales Series games include these, usually enhancing each characters abilities, though some cases are more relevant to the plot than others. They're usually assumed to be naturally occurring crystals that just sort of appear in the world. They never are, and are usually either Powered by a Forsaken Child or some form of Lost Technology. Tales of Vesperia has Blastia, specifically the Blastia cores. While Blastia is mainly used to augment each character's abilities, they're also used to power ships, barriers, and even act as mundane objects like thermometers or light sources. Tales of Xillia has Lilium Orbs, which are, again, used by the characters to enhance their abilities, though they carry very little plot significance. There are also spirit fossils, used to power weaponry and flying vessels. Tales of Graces has Cryas, which are used to transport water, heat buildings, and so on. There are also three massive Cryas known as the Valkines Cryas, which are generally used to power each nation's massive capital city by itself. |

The Lightstar Crystal from Skeleton Warriors, which not only served as the main power source of Luminicity, but when broken, empowered individuals based on their alignment.

Bayonetta: Played with with the Eyes of the World, specifically the Left Eye of Darkness that Bayonetta already owns as the jewel in her witch broach and the Right Eye of Light that she is searching for and basically fuels the story. Ultimately averted in this case, as this was all misdirection — the jewel in her broach is magical, but was a gift from her childhood friend Jeanne and isn't the Left Eye. In fact, the Eyes of the World are instead an intangible magical power held by Bayonetta and Father Balder, that can be used to resurrect a god and bring about Armageddon. The series also has Witch Hearts and Moon Pearls, which are collectibles that can extend Bayonetta's health and magic, respectfully. | |

Star Trek: The power source for Warp Drive is the crystalline material called Dilithium, and in the original series must remain in that form to work. Prior to the discovery of a method to recrystalize dilithium, the crystals had a limited useful life and had to be replaced from time to time. note Part of the impetus behind introducing the concept of recrystalizing dilithium was the desire to avoid Next Generation stories involving searching for dilithium. Later Techno Babble describes it as not the actual power source, but as a regulating agent for the Matter / Antimatter reaction (IE: what makes the energy usable for purposes other than blowing things up). Even later descriptions state that Dilithium itself is attuned to Subspace, which makes its discovery a major milestone in a civilization's development of Warp Drive since tapping into that dimensional layer of reality is how warp drives travel faster than light. It not only enables the antimatter-fueled powerplants needed for the immense power demand of a warp drive, but is inherently required for a warp drive to function at all. Dilithium crystals going inert can have catastrophic results if in an active warp reactor core, and is the cause of "The Burn", a galactic-scale apoclapytic event in the far future season 3 of Star Trek: Discovery. |

Small Persons with Wings: The Parvi Pennati, or Small Persons with Wings, once fended for themselves with the Magica Vera, which helped them make clothes and houses for themselves as well as see through lies and illusions. When they started using the Magica Artificia, the Magica Vera made all their spells useless, so they stopped using the Magica Vera and stored it in a moonstone, which has been set in a ring. Anyone who wears the ring becomes a Living Lie Detector and can see through all magical illusions. If a human drops the ring into a glass of water and then drinks the water, they learn every Awful Truth about themselves and may be Driven to Suicide. The Turpins have spent centuries safeguarding the moonstone, but now the Parvi want it back so they can use their native magic again. | |

Gundam: The various Alternate Universe continuities love this trope. In Gundam Wing, all three Wings and the Epyon have large green "search eye" cameras on their chests. In Gundam X, the green gem on the GX's chest was the receiver for the microwave power transmission system that powered up the satellite cannon. Most of the GN-powered mobile suits in Gundam 00 have these, usually taking the form of one large crystal in the chest and at least one on each limb. They're supposed to be the storage units of the GN particles that make them go. SD Gundam has crystals being used in various forms. Musha Gundam makes much of a 'Gundam Crystal', an artifact which is often split into separate parts and handed down to successive generations of heroes. Some versions of the series also have the Mushas house crystals on their torsos, inside of which are their 'GunSouls'. Upon death these crystals exit the body to await reincarnation. |

Superman: Several times, Kryptonite is a formidable power source. Generally done in the interest of making things harder for Superman, Supergirl or other Kryptonians. For example, it was the power source for Metallo in his original incarnation, though with no anti-Superman malice at the time (all the scientist who made Metallo happened to have on hand when he made him was some Kryptonite). In the Post-Crisis universe and other continuities, Kryptonians use a kind of glowing crystals called "Sunstones" which perform a large array of tasks, such as constructing building structures or storing data. In Superman: Brainiac, the Man of Steel studies information about Brainiac recorded in Sunstones left by his father. In Last Daughter of Krypton, a sunstone guides Supergirl back to Argo City and then displays a message recorded by her father. In Bizarrogirl, the Bizarro's rocket ship is controlled by sunstones. Supergirl also learns information about the Bizarro race via a Sunstone. Who is Superwoman? reveals that those multi-purpose glowing rocks are also hard and sharp. Supergirl keeps a communication device made from Sunstones. During a heated argument with her mother, Kara smashes it to pieces, and cuts her hand on the shards. Superman: Up, Up and Away!: Kryptonian Sunstones are self-replicating, infinitely programmable and can transmit data at lightning speed. The object buried deep beneath Earth's surface is a massive Kryptonian warship made of Sunstone. Superman also uses the Sunstone to build a new Fortress of Solitude. Superman and the ThunderCats has the magical stone Mxyzptlk gives Mumm-Ra in order to cross dimensions. In Two for the Death of One and other Superman stories, the Runestone of Merlin is a huge red gemstone glowing and bursting with immeasurable magic power. It is coveted by rival sorcerers Satanis and Syrene — daughter of the original custodian — who seek to gain omnipotence by absorbing its powerful energies. In The Killers of Krypton, Empress Gandelo's minions use glowing green crystals to send and receive messages. |

In Xenoblade Chronicles 2, people with the right aptitude can resonate with Core Crystals, which bonds them with a Blade that serves as a combat partner and companion. If the Driver dies, then any Blades with whom they're in resonance reverts to their Core Crystal form to bond with a new Driver, and loses all memory of their prior life. Additionally, while in resonance, each Blade has a crystal embedded into their body, which, if destroyed, kills the otherwise immortal Blade off permanently. | |

My Little Pony (Generation 5): One of the primary differences between how magic works in G5 versus G4 is that is presence centers on three crystals, one for each pony type, being assembled and active. As long as harmony exists among the pony races, the crystals are fused into a single glowing, floating gem, and sustain the magic of the world. | |

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime: Upgrades for ship stations are represented by gems that can be attached to them to give them different powers. Generally speaking, power gems increase how many shots a weapon fires at once and increase the engine's propulsion, beam gems replace projectiles with laser beams, and metal gems replace guns with wrecking balls or sawblades and cause the engine to leave behind clusters of mines when used. | |

The Dragon Prince: Callum magic uses the nature surrounding him as sources; during Book One, he gets his hands on a Primal Stone, an orb that allows him to freely cast magic that uses the Sky as a power source. In the Book Two episode "Breathe", he learns to do it without the Primal Stone, which was thought to be impossible for humans by many. | |

In the Power Rangers (2017) movie reboot, the Zeo Crystal is even more important, despite never being seen. Turns out a Zeo Crystal is the source of every life-bearing planet's ability to support life, which means if Rita got her hands on it, Earth would die in short order. | |

The original series novel "Chain of Attack" suggested low warp speeds were possible without dilithium crystals simply using the power generated by the annihilation of matter and anti-matter, and dilithium was needed to amplify the reaction enough to make higher warp speeds possible. | |

The Elder Scrolls The series in general has these in the form of Soul Gems, which can be used in conjunction with a Soul Trap spell to trap the souls of enemies as they die. The more powerful the creature, the higher quality the Soul Gem must be in order to trap its soul. Once trapped, the filled Soul Gem can be used to Enchant an item, imbuing it with spell effects. It can also be used to recharge an already enchanted item which has been drained through use. The Ayleids, a presumed extinct race of Mer (Elves) who acted as Abusive Precursors to early humankind, had several types of crystalline objects imbued with magical power. Many of these are still found in their ruins in modern times (most notably in Oblivion which is set in their former homeland), but is now Magitek Lost Technology. To note: Welkynd Stones restore Magicka to user. Varla Stones can be used in the place of the aforementioned Soul Gems to recharge enchanted items. The Ayleids also possessed "memory crystals", which could release memories directly to the user. Overuse of these crystals was said to cause a "problem of capacity" for mortal minds. |

The DCU: Justice League of America: An early story has four people empowered by mysterious black orbs from another dimension to follow their desires in an unstoppable crime spree. One woman, coveting jewelry in the window store, becomes Gem Girl, capable of using a different superpower from every gem she stole based on gem lore and powerful enough to trounce Wonder Woman. Superman: Several times, Kryptonite is a formidable power source. Generally done in the interest of making things harder for Superman, Supergirl or other Kryptonians. For example, it was the power source for Metallo in his original incarnation, though with no anti-Superman malice at the time (all the scientist who made Metallo happened to have on hand when he made him was some Kryptonite). In the Post-Crisis universe and other continuities, Kryptonians use a kind of glowing crystals called "Sunstones" which perform a large array of tasks, such as constructing building structures or storing data. In Superman: Brainiac, the Man of Steel studies information about Brainiac recorded in Sunstones left by his father. In Last Daughter of Krypton, a sunstone guides Supergirl back to Argo City and then displays a message recorded by her father. In Bizarrogirl, the Bizarro's rocket ship is controlled by sunstones. Supergirl also learns information about the Bizarro race via a Sunstone. Who is Superwoman? reveals that those multi-purpose glowing rocks are also hard and sharp. Supergirl keeps a communication device made from Sunstones. During a heated argument with her mother, Kara smashes it to pieces, and cuts her hand on the shards. Superman: Up, Up and Away!: Kryptonian Sunstones are self-replicating, infinitely programmable and can transmit data at lightning speed. The object buried deep beneath Earth's surface is a massive Kryptonian warship made of Sunstone. Superman also uses the Sunstone to build a new Fortress of Solitude. Superman and the ThunderCats has the magical stone Mxyzptlk gives Mumm-Ra in order to cross dimensions. In Two for the Death of One and other Superman stories, the Runestone of Merlin is a huge red gemstone glowing and bursting with immeasurable magic power. It is coveted by rival sorcerers Satanis and Syrene — daughter of the original custodian — who seek to gain omnipotence by absorbing its powerful energies. In The Killers of Krypton, Empress Gandelo's minions use glowing green crystals to send and receive messages. Teen Titans: Raven has a red crystal "Third Eye". Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman: Warbringer: In order to save her home and break the bloodline curse on the titular Warbringer, Diana uses a crystal called a Heartstone that has the ability to teleport the user anywhere out of Themyscira the user chooses — on the downside, it can then only be used to teleport back to Themyscira. Wonder Woman and the Star Riders: Each of the Star Riders has a star jewel with magic properties that give the wearer additional control over an elemental power and help keep natural elements of the world in balance. All the gals have a spot for their jewels on their belts. The Legend of Wonder Woman (2016): The Heart of Baetylus is at first presented as a crystalline chunk with great and dangerous necromantic power, and is eventually revealed to be a broken off chunk of the "Baetylus," the solidified and crystallized souls of a dead world, that forms the core of the "Titan" which once tried to destroy life on earth. |

Aurora (2019): Lacrimas are crystals inscribed with magic runes and used to store large amounts of elemental energy. They're typically used to produce a specific magic effect on demand, with their runes restricting the ways in which their stored energy can manifest — for example, a fire lacrima can be "programmed" to only release light without heat and serve as a light source or a life lacrima meant for medical use to only regrow lost tissue — but ones without these limitations are essentially limitless spell batteries and potentially very dangerous things. | |

Final Fantasy: The Elemental Crystals from various games. Their exact powers vary from game to game, but they're usually the main Cosmic Keystones of the world, maintaining and controlling the four elements. In some games, their powers can be harnessed and amplified, and in a few, even a single shard of a broken Crystal has enough power in it for a person to transform into a hero. They also tend to keep the Sealed Evil in a Can... sealed. Final Fantasy XII has Nethicite - essentially a crystalline stand-in for our world's nuclear power, including being major source of energy and Fantasy Nukes. The save points also take form of crystals in this game and some of them even allow you to teleport around Ivalice. And some are actually monsters that will attack you. They're even more central in the Fabula Nova Crystallis series. Specifically, in Final Fantasy XIII, crystals are the source of magic: large crystals power the fal'Cie machine-gods who in turn bless humans with the power of the l'Cie by marking them with a Power Tattoo containing a crystal which grants them potentially limitless power... as well as a time limit and a specific mission. Failure turns you into a shambling monster made of crystal. Success isn't much better as you are frozen in crystal until the fal'Cie or the gods see fit to de-crystallize you and return you to their service. There is also another crystal unique to l'cie, the Eidolith (See the current page image) which allows a L'cie to summon an powerful entity in battle, provided the l'cie impresses it enough to forge the contract. In Final Fantasy Type-0 each of the four nations bears a crystal gifted by fal'cie gods, these crystals in turn imbue the peoples of each nation with a different power. For Rubrum the power of magic but only to the young, the power of weapons to the people of Milites, the power of dragons to the people of Concordia and the power of the shield to the people of Lorica. These crystals can also imbue people with the power of the l'cie giving them unique abilities and eternal youth at the cost of degrading their sanity and absolute loyalty to the will of the crystal. |

Some Pokémon have gems encrusted in them for show: Staryu and Starmie, Golduck, Persian, Espeon, Ampharos, Sableye, Vespiquen, etc. Suicune deserves special mention, as it has a big friggin' crystal encrusted in its head. There is also an attack called "Power Gem". Pokedex entries for Staryu/Starmie claim that their crystal IS actually their eye, which is based on "compound eyes" of some real starfish. Pokedex entries states that Gigalith has multiple red crystals sticking out of its body. These crystals absorb sunlight, which is then redirected into Gigalith's internal core and released as a powerful blast of solar energy. The solar beams themselves pack enough punch to obliterate a large mountain, even a dump truck as well. Appropriately enough, Dialga and Palkia have a diamond and pearl on their bodies, respectively. The events of The Rise Of Darkrai are set off when Palkia's pearl is damaged. Emerald from Pokémon Adventures has one on his forehead. The crystal in Deoxys' body is actually its brain. In fact, as long as that is intact, it's still alive, considering its Healing Factor allows it to regenerate in the right conditions. Staryu and Starmie's center gems also share this same healing factor. Each type has a gem that, when held by a Pokemon, powers up moves of that type. Mega-Sableye gains a gem big enough to hide behind that turns him into a Stone Wall. Sun & Moon added the Z Crystals, which allow every Pokemon to use a Limit Break for every type (as well as status moves with additional buffs and several species-specific Limit Breaks) once per battle. Necrozma is a powerful living crystal monster and believed to be the source of Z Power. |

Trolls from Trollhunters are able to harness the power found in magic crystals for a number of uses. The Trollhunter in particular is able to equip the gems into the amulet and bestow onto them new weapons and abilities. The Triumbric Crystals are all crystals that originate from Gunmar in one form or another. When possess by the trollhunter, they give the wielder enough power to kill Gunmar himself. The Birth Stone was a crystal that originated from the Heartstone that Gunmar was born from. Found in Gatto's Keep, the Birth Stone gives Jim a pair of daggers that can combine into a boomerang. The Killing Stone was harvested from Gunmar's first kill, the Wumpa King, creating a shield for Jim. The Eye of Gunmar was literally a stone harvested from Gunmar's right eye. Combined with the Birth Stone and Killing Stone, the Eye bestows Jim a black and red armor that could supposedly kill Gunmar. It is unknown what kind of power the Eye has on its own. Jim was able to use a gem found within Angor Rot's right eye to counteract Angor's mark on him, allowing him to use the Sword of Daylight against him. |

The Ultramen have ones on their chests called Colour Timers as an indicator as to how much longer they can last. It's stated that only members of the Ultra Space Garrison possess these for places that are dangerous for them to remain in their normal form for too long, like within Earth's atmosphere. Ultraman Tiga and Ultraman Dyna have secondary crystals on their foreheads. These are used to change forms and transfer energy to other Ultras. |

The Legend of Dark Witch: Pure Syega are lumps of crystallized magic that humans can use for their needs. In fact, many characters are often seen with a Syega crystal or two on their designs to augment their abilities. The only ones who don't actually use them are Zizou, her sister Mati (on account of them both being Physical Gods and thus probably having no need for them anyway outside of gameplay) and Fae such as Stoj. Gameplay-wise, they serve as items needed to upgrade abilities. | |

Semiconductors, mainly silicon, germanium, and various metalloid or nonmetal compounds called III-Vs, are functional crystals whose electronic properties make them extremely useful in a whole lot of roles. This includes use in electronic logic components like diodes and transistors, optical devices like LEDs and lasers, and — in a case of literally being power crystals — solar cells. Every integrated circuit (including your computer microprocessor and memory chips) is essentially a semiconductor crystal, that's been grown, cut, processed in a kind of arcane technological rune magic, and programmed, giving it the ability to create... all this. Although they have the same microstructural shape as diamond, most of these crystals don't actually look that pretty. But they are powerful. | |

The Chaos Emeralds from the Sonic the Hedgehog games are the epitome of this trope. There are seven of them, and even a single fake Chaos Emerald can teleport. A single real one is all that it takes to essentially freeze time in a decently sized area. Two Chaos Emeralds are capable of opening a portal through time. And when you get all seven, it's pretty much the epitome of Super Mode. They can also be used as power sources by machines such as biplanes, and six or so of them can power huge planet-destroying cannons. And then there's the Master Emerald, professional MacGuffin and the power source that keeps Angel Island a Floating Continent. Sonic Rush introduces the Sol Emeralds, a set of emeralds from the Sol Dimension which serve as the counterparts to the Chaos Emeralds. Just as Sonic can use the Chaos Emeralds to become Super Sonic, Blaze can use the Sol Emeralds to become Burning Blaze. |

Fairy Tail: Lacrima crystals, which are formed from and contain magical energy that can then used to power almost every kind of magic item. Depending on the type of magic stored within the crystal, forcibly breaking one can release the contained magic in an uncontrolled reaction. When the Etherion was fired at the Tower of Heaven, the tower absorbed the magic energy and transmuted into a giant lacrima crystal that contained the destructive and varied elemental energies of the weapon. While Jellal intended to use the energy to power the R-System, Natsu in desperation devoured some of the crystals for a Power-Up to defeat him, and the damage the tower took over the course of the battle caused a chain-reaction that forced them to redirect the energy back into outer space before the crystals failed and released the energy in an uncontrolled burst. |

Fate/stay night: The Tohsaka family specializes in a school of magic devoted to storing magical energy, typically in jewels. Rin does so by sprinkling her blood on her jewels every night, and uses them in battle by throwing them. The downside? Using the jewels generally destroys them, and those jewels are really expensive, so the Tohsaka family always has money problems. | |

Warhammer 40,000: The Craftworld Eldar universally wear "Waystones," a gem worn over the heart which captures the soul of the Eldar upon death to prevent it from being painfully devoured by the Chaos god Slaanesh. These spirit stones allow the Eldar a peculiar kind of necromancy with Wraithguard and Wraithlords, battle constructs controlled by the spirit of a long-dead Eldar in a waystone. The Eldar also pimp out their vehicles and weapons with countless more mundane gems. They also occasionally have starships and titans powered by spirit stones. Though, since they already have a light cruiser class called the 'wraithship,' they had to call spirit-powered starships 'ghostships' The Dark Eldar have these too. They hold souls, but unlike the Craftworld Eldar, who use them to hold their own souls in stasis in death, the Dark Eldar use the crystals to hold the souls of tortured captives for various uses, primarily consumption. |

The Minecraft mod Industrial Craft has two tiers of energy crystals, although they aren't shown on or in any of the machinery containing them. The first one is crafted from 8 redstone and a diamond and stores 100,000 energy units, or EU. Its upgrade, the "Lapotron Crystal" is crafted by surrounding an energy crystal with lapis lazuli and a few electric circuits, somehow allowing it to store 1,000,000 EU. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In general, crystals and gems are strongly associated with magic within the series' world. The Elements of Harmony, some of the most powerful magical artifacts in the series, take the form of golden necklaces (and one "big crown thingy") each encrusted with a large jewel resembling its bearer's Cutie Marknote so a star, a diamond, a lightning bolt, a butterfly, an apple, and a balloon for Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie respectively, although when wielded by Luna and Celestia in the past they resembled plain-cut gemstones. The Element of Magic, specifically, is alongside the Dazzlings' crystal necklaces among a category of things that aren't depowered in the transition to the human world in Equestria Girls. The former suffers a change in magical properties and becomes able to respond to any wielder, rather than the bearer it originally attuned to. The Alicorn Amulet, an Artifact of Doom that corrupts the wearer, is encrusted with a large, blood-red gem. Similarly, the necklace that Twilight later dons in her rematch against Trixie features what appears to be an emerald; when it is revealed that the necklace is fake, this trope is invoked when the jewel promptly falls off and breaks. The Crystal Empire, in the far north, depends upon the Crystal Heart, a large, magical heart-shaped crystal which protects the Empire against threats and the arctic cold when powered by the crystal ponies' happiness. In a more Mundane Utility role, orange-red crystals are sometimes seen being used instead of fire. Numerous fireplaces in the in-universe story in "A Hearth's Warming Tale" are filled with such crystals. In "The Crystalling", Sunburst's home includes a cauldron warmed by a cluster of glowing crystals arranged like a fire pit. A similar arrangement appears in "A Health of Information", where Meadowbrook and her mother use it in lieu of fire to heat their cauldron. |

The Metebelis Crystals which enhance telepathy, seen in "The Green Death" and "Planet of the Spiders". And then in the New-Who episode "Hide". The Thirteenth Doctor's TARDIS console room is full of glowing orange crystals, including one serving as the Time Rotor, and six columns pointing at the rotor. The production designer said the intent was to make it look like the crystals all power the Time Rotor. |

The Cinder Spires: Ubiquitous within the setting, though unlike most examples these are grown in vats rather than naturally occuring. They are also quite larger than is common; creating vats is Lost Technology and all power crystals are needed for military needs, with none left for the civilian market, so all of them are grown to a minimum size where they can power an airship. Gwen Lancaster's family owns the largest vattery in Spire Aurora, and is rightly proud of the quality of their products, though it's generally accepted that a power crystal needs at least a century of running-in before it is seaworthy. | |

Mickey Mouse: One comic (a Scrooge McDuck/Mickey Mouse crossover to boot) deals with the characters chasing after an alien babe who was stealing diamonds. As it turns out, she needed them to fuel her spaceship. (There is a small Artistic License – Physics moment when Mickey apparently figures out that the diamonds must be fuel, because "they contain carbon".) | |

In Dragon Quest: Legend of the Hero Abel, the Red Stone and Blue Stone hold untold power that can only be unleashed by those chosen to guard them. Most importantly, the Red Stone has the power to set loose an all-powerful dragon, who can only be sealed up again by the Blue Stone. The Blue Stone is given to Abel, and while normally it's attached to his headgear, on one occasion he removes the stone and fixes it to a magic staff. Talia is given the Red Stone, which she wears on a necklace. | |

In the Inheritance Cycle, gems are capable of storing massive amounts of magic, allowing a mage or dragon rider to store days and weeks worth of magic, so that they have a massive supply at their side to use at once, as opposed to merely whatever is in their bodies. For this reason, dragon riders' swords are set with gems, and may carry extras around, as well. Eragon often stores magical energy in the jeweled Belt of Beloth the Wise, or else in Brom's ring. | |

The Legend of Spyro: Spirit gems — clusters of quartz-like crystals growing from the ground — serve as the source of the dragons' magic; by breaking and consuming them, dragons can restore their internal magic reserves.

Star Wars Legends: According to the Young Jedi Knights novels, lightsabers are powered by a simple battery, converter, and "focus crystal". Apparently just clarity and sparkliness is required of said crystals, Jedi can "sense" if it's good or not. (They don't even apparently need to be of any particular mineral.) If they're not sparkly enough, the lightsaber will explode. Other sources expand on the idea. Lightsabers with multiple crystals can have more than one length setting. The crystal may be responsible for the color of the blade, though the colors of the crystal and blade need not match. Not all crystalline materials will work; in one case, Corran Horn constructed a blade with two length settings, but the extended length didn't work when he used a fake diamond. In fact, it shorted out rather spectacularly. |

Specifically, in Final Fantasy XIII, crystals are the source of magic: large crystals power the fal'Cie machine-gods who in turn bless humans with the power of the l'Cie by marking them with a Power Tattoo containing a crystal which grants them potentially limitless power... as well as a time limit and a specific mission. Failure turns you into a shambling monster made of crystal. Success isn't much better as you are frozen in crystal until the fal'Cie or the gods see fit to de-crystallize you and return you to their service. There is also another crystal unique to l'cie, the Eidolith (See the current page image) which allows a L'cie to summon an powerful entity in battle, provided the l'cie impresses it enough to forge the contract. | |

PJ Masks: In the Season 2 episode "PJ Power Up", it's revealed that there is a crystal statue resembling the 3 animals that the heroes get their powers from hidden in HQ. When it gets knocked off it's spot, the heroes instantly lose their powers. And when they put it back in place, not only are their powers restored but they get some new ones as well. Another example, also from Season 2, is the Harvest Moon crystal, which is first seen in the Moonstruck two-parter. It can give Luna Girl a massive powerboost when combined with her wand. |

Pick a Mega Man game. Any game. Especially during/after Mega Man X. Special mention goes to Zero's "booblights". Zero's Power Crystal also has his "Z" insignia plus a little relevance. It might be his weakness, as a flashback in X4 shows that Sigma couldn't have defeated him if it weren't for Zero convulsing when it was flashing. The red one in X's helmet has a couple of functions besides looking neat. If his health is low, it blinks on and off while he's standing still. In X3, the level maps you can access after acquiring the helmet upgrade appear to be projected from the gem like a hologram. In terms of gems that are just there for show, many of X's special armors have ones in various spots. In particular, his Blade Armor from X6 has green gems on his arms, shoulders, chest, waist, and the tops of his leg guards. |

They carry their respective versions in a brooch worn on the bow on their chests. The same crystal is also carried on Sailor Moon's wand during the first arc/season after it's obtained and the other girls get a crystal they transform with in the manga.
