This page is of questionable balance. Reason: Poor design. For example: Fusion dance doesn't work, you can't just "add stats together". It doesn't say when the dance check is made, or what action initiates this, or where the other creature needs to be. It implies that the other creature needs to be a player. There isn't a "concentration saving throw" - does this mean a constitution saving throw, or a concentration skill check?

You can help D&D Wiki by better balancing the mechanics of this page. When the mechanics have been changed so that this template is no longer applicable please remove this template. If you do not understand balance please leave comments on this page's talk page before making any edits.

Crystal Gems

Personality

Crystal Gem's personalities are extremely varied, and are often influenced by their role, for example: A Paladin Gem would be very righteous and holy.

Physical Description

Crystal Gems are humanoid, and their sizes can range from small to large. Their colour and design are always based around the gem they represent, and they have a specific instance of this gem somewhere on their body. They appear as females, but are genderless.

Relations

They appear snobbish to a lot of other races, regardless of their behavior.

Alignment

Any.

Lands

They come from a distant planet, they know as "Homeworld". Or a kindergarten on one of the colonized worlds, one being earth.

Religion

They do not believe in gods, but instead worship an idea or a more powerful Gem.

Language

Common.

Names

They are named after their gem.

Fusion Dance: Any Crystal Gem can fuse with other Constructs or Gems, Increasing by at least one size catergory, and use their higher stats between them and double their Maximum Hit Points. They must roll a Perform (Dance) check vs. DC 20 or the fusion will fail. They split apart when either the fusion reaches 0 Hit Points, or the two players disagree (OOC, roll a Concentration saving throw vs. DC 15).

gollark: Look, the main code is all right here, other stuff is... well, it's spread across a lot of files, but you can see it, check the `local files = whatever` bit and my pastebin account.

gollark: I'm not saying much about the *other* exploit, because that would provide clues about it.

gollark: There are issues I know of in GPS (pretty obvious, hard to exploit, hard to patch), rednet repeaters (not useful to exploit, easy to patch, not too obvious), rednet itself (obvious, easily exploitable, but most people making serious programs are already aware), potatOS (very non-obvious, not a huge issue as accidental RCE still isn't possible, easy to exploit if you know how).

gollark: We should make CVEs for useless CC bugs!
