They aren't actually big, they are represented by the blue orchids.

This along with a few other creatures are going to be made, for wood elves. This is the first of a few mounts, and animals bearing one main resemblance of the crystals that i will be adding. I plan on adding a deer creature, as well as a few helpful beasts for the more or less impaired. Orcs have so many mounts, so do other races. Really as long as I follow Mech standard which I did, as this gives no benefit to fights or such, then it is allowed. It was posted in Roleplay because I didn't need everyone saying OH, LOOK! Idea! Lets downvote it so much, the person will want to remove it. If Deco can make a lore for a type of horse that she sells. Jade can make lore for giant wolves for dark elves. Orcs can make huge mounts for them. I see no point in me making a few passive mounts that will effect you in no way. Also I've never seen your pictures, or the creatures you're talking about, so you can stop spamming with ideas that I've ripped people off. I created this blatantly from my own imagination, only using a reference picture of an actual cat.

The lore of these creatures and their art is rather unique, I would know =P I made it all up and drew it.

What are they? Wyrssa, also called the Crystal daemon cats. How do they get this way? They eat the Crystal Flowers. They safely defuse the crystal’s chemicals by depositing it into their skin. This causes the many large crystal’s on their fur. However if one was to remove them, the crystals are all but worthless. Do the crystals help them at all? Yes, for their natural predators it makes them back off, because of the solid crystals that can cause teeth to easily chip, or the overly salty taste will overload the senses of the animals trying to eat upon these creatures. Why do they like Atgaard? They stay there because its near a plant that helps them digest meat, and also gives them the large sodium boost they need. They can live without it, but they only can eat plants if they don’t get that. Which makes it hard for them to eat in the winter. Are they aggressive? Not towards people, but towards other animals they can be when provoked. They are generally passive and loving, preferring to curl up against their riders and loving on them. Will they attack someone, they will run if attacked, they prefer being non confrontational. So No. How hard are their horns? The horns are actually covered in crystal, so they are extremely hard, but they serve no purpose besides decoration due to their backwards angle. However they can make extremely good handles. What size are they? Let me show you. They are about 15 hands at the shoulder. So about the size and weight of an Arabian horse. How much do they weight? About 800-1000lbs. Where do they live? Atgaard, they prefer wood elves and have a special way of training them only truly learned by the Taliame family. Can you get one? Sure, if you want to rp getting one from Lily, mind you she will prefer to keep it as a racial mount for wood elves, and they reject other riders. What does it eat? It eats really anything it can get, being a scavenger they find life easy when bonded to someone else, due to being fed daily that way. How many babies does it have? 4-5 per litter. How often, once every two years? So two elven weeks. How would you represent it in MC? A grey horse, or a white horse if someone requires the beast to be there. However it can also be represented by a cat. Can you ride it? Yes, its big enough to have a saddle. What happens if it doesn’t have access to these flowers? Well if its already eaten from it, it keeps its crystalline chunks and horns, if not then it just has regular backwards deer antlers, and of course two tails. How do they bond to people? A tradition learned by the family is passed down, the creatures will bond to someone, their eyes will turn from bright to darker. They live for about 40 years, and are loyal to the family of those they bonded too. How do they live when unbonded? They prefer to be in small groups of their kind maybe 3-6.

No. It is just fine when crushed! ^.^ Since the properties are in the crystal unless you mix it, it will be regular.

Well, then have someone RP to make a cure silleh, right now it hasn't been experimented with.

Flower of Crystal - Also known as Crystal Death What is this flower? Well it is a flower that has an abnormally high amount of Sodium Calcite and Calcium. It has the ability to grow and bloom despite this, however it appears to be covered in crystal. It is edible but rather crunchy. Ok, so I ate it, what happens to me? Well for the first few hours nothing, then it starts to hurt, your body feels like its stiffening, from bones first. This is caused by a property in the flower spreading out into your body and turning you into a crystal. Breaking the crystals will actually chip part of the body the it is encasing, as the skin is the last thing the change. Ok, I want to cure it, is there a non magical way? No, so far it hasn't been experimented on to try and find a cure. However if one was to directly figure it out I would love to see the screenshots and then even add it to the lore. My suggestion is find a chemical that would de-calcify and another that would affect salt or slow a chemical reaction down. Now a way to do this, and the key ingredients are Sugar, which stops most of salts progress due to it being the opposite of salt in many ways, and an acid which stops the calcification. You can experiment to figure these out, I don't want to see just BOOM I GOT A CURE! Without actually working on one. The acidic compound must be high in acid. Wines, Carbonated waters, and cherries all have high content, so adding these may help. As for sugars you're going to need a good amount in it. Of course you're not going to just want those two ingredients, you're going to want to reduce that, and make it much more potent. Adding in a few other things most likely to numb pain if you want the pain of it reverting back to be numbed. A low dose will just stop it, a high dose will turn back the transition, unless yet again, it has completely taken over the organs. Ok, so I'm a cleric, how do I solve this? A cleric would most likely not be able to figure out what is going on first time around, as this acts unlike any other poison and a cleric would have to figure out whats going wrong they would most likely watch in horror as their friend turned to Crystal. However after seeing it done the first time the cleric would be able to figure out that they are turning to crystal from the inside out, so the symptoms would have to be cured by first purifying the blood, then working on the joints, once its past crystallizing the organs, the persons already dead, you can't live without a beating heart. If the cleric can get to the person before that stage is complete then the victim will live. Ok, can I mine it? No, you can represent the statues with Lapis or Quartz but the crystal is completely worthless, no mining it and trying to find diamonds. So what can eat it? Well there are a few animals that I will put here later. Why can they eat it? Over the many hundreds of years these creatures have developed an immunity, they tend to eat these leaves to help their digestion. So why can you rp this? Its just a poison with a different way of killing, and has a special effect on specific animals but it doesn't impact any MC default as the bodies aren’t really valuable, nor will it give the animals any special abilities. This sounds rather op, what drawbacks are there? Well for one always wear gloves so it doesn't begin to crystallize your hands. It also has a rather salty taste so if you put it in food, replace the salt with this so you don't give yourself away. Its also quite hard, so either compound it, or liquefy it to make it easier fed, or else those hard chunks will break a tooth, and give you away. ALSO when compounded it would still have the texture of sand, and be gritty in food. So better find something to disguise it in if you plan on feeding it to someone. What if normal animals that haven’t developed a tolerance for this try to eat it? Simple they die just like anyone else. Where is it found? In the underbelly of Atgaard, and rarely in other locations. Could it grow in other environments? Yes, though it is rare in other locations (This allows ET's to use it in events). If one was to take two and transplant them, properly of course, that means to cropping the roots and if they survive the shock they can live in other areas. Of course you need to wear gloves during this whole process. Would it kill the animals in those environments? Of course!

((Person gave me some crappy horses in return for 30 heart horses =P))
