The great crystal can use its action to change its physical appearance into any form of its choice.

If a swarm of shardlings grows to immense size, the tiny crystals that make it up begin to fuse together. The resulting massive crystal is called a great crystal. Each shardling retains its knowledge and personality, but it also learns everything that any other shardling within the great crystal knows. The great crystals are among the most powerful psionics among shardlings, with the power to bar certain kinds of creatures from their territories, the power to telepathically link creatures, and the power of teleportation. Though the great crystal is fused together, it can just as easily reshape itself. |
