Calicysts

**Calicysts** are species of objects between the crystal and computer family but mostly the part of the math aliens family, they have existed hundreds of years ago. They are known for their healing abilities and music (Most common are operas, carols, and orchestras) also even geometry.

## History

Hundreds of year's ago, the distant ancestor of computers discovers a weird cave that's has a mysterious calming song coming from it. As they go down deeper to the cave, there is a bunch of crystals all over the tunnel, at the end there is a large calicyst, surprisingly a taaffeite, with a monoclinic headpiece with a sideways hexagon as its LED.

It seems to be interesting to an objects view on how interesting this specimen is, so they called them "Calicysts" since it is the most interesting name to come of, sounds a bit similar to the word "crystal"

Decades later, the calicysts came out of the cave and migrated to other places in the world. In the modern day, calicysts are uncommon along the world having 34% of the object population.

### Discrimination from algebraliens

Since they are part of the math aliens family, algebraliens think of them as evil objects who steal the lives of other algebraliens. Long ago when after the math aliens migrated to the object world, they specifically discovered an island and they called it the Number Playground. A few years later, algebraliens started to go missing, they went to the cave where the distant ancestor of computers discovered. Halfway in the tunnel, the see some algebraliens dead, skined, laying down on the ground.

As the algebralien explorers went deep down to the depths of the cave, they saw an sapphire calicyst with solid glowing eyes and a wide smile, more of them appeared, half of them are ruby calicysts, they appear to be small, same to the sapphire calicysts.

The algebralien explorers tried to escape, but one of them went missing. They went back to the Equation Playground, they explained everything from the situation in the cave. In the present day, the calicysts are still a big threat to algebraliens to this day, everywhere in the whole object world. Even though calicysts are friendly objects.

## Appearance

### Crystal type

There are over 4 thousands of crystals in the whole world divided into 7 groups. For calicysts there are about 10 groups of crystal types, usually recognized by the LEDs. Those are sapphires/rubies, agates, tourmalines, beryls, calcites, garnets, diamonds, and the rarest, taaffeites.

### Headpieces

There are 7 types of headpieces based on the 7 types of crystals by shape. Those are triclinic, orthorhombic or rombic, trigonal, isometric, tetragonal, hexagonal and lastly monoclinic, the rarest one. It is randomized and it depends on the rarity. Think of the last one as a crown.

### Sizes

Calicysts can come a variety of different sizes depending on their crystal type, sapphires and rubies are the smallest and ancrestals are the largest.

### Horns and tusks

#### Horns

Horns are exclusive to the Topaz/Lace agate/Diamond/Beryl calicysts, there are only three types of horns. The ones for Topaz/Lace agates, Diamonds/Beryls, and the ram horned ones.
