Description
Far beneath the earth, a powerful parasitic crystalline life form grants the infected massive amounts of strength and power but makes them lose all sense of self. Taking the appearance of green diamond like structure it lures foolish adventurers or anyone looking for treasure to their dooms. These crystal infected are unfortunate souls who still retain their identity and mind but cannot control their actions. Encased from head to toe they can only watch as the crystal moves for them no matter how much they struggle. They typically move in hordes or surround a larger Abomination that leads them in battle. A creature can recover from being an infected unlike those unfortunate enough to become Crystal Abominations.
