Crystalmancy[1] is a subject that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. It is a form of sorcery used by the Troll civilization to create and manipulate crystals, the most well-known users of which are Walter and Wendy Naugus.
Description[]
Crystalmancy allows the users to fire energy bolts which generate crystal wherever they strike. If the energy bolts strike a target, the target will be encased in solid crystal. Should anything robotic become crystallized, its programming becomes susceptible to the Crystalmancer's commands and can be summoned to their aid as long as the machine is within a certain range.[1][2] Users of Crystalmancy possess the ability to control the shape of crystals to an unknown extent to form crystal constructs, such as a rising crystal pillar which grows another smaller pillar out of the front to strike a target.[3] Users of Crystalmancy can also make their crystals break apart at will, to free anything trapped inside.[4]
Crystalmancy also grants the user the ability to telekinetically move crystals.[2] Aside from manipulating the crystals they create, Crystalmancers can also manipulate pre-existing crystals, such as the emeralds in the caves of the Hidden Palace Zone.[5] Crystalmancy can be strengthened by harnessing the crystals found in mines, such as the Hidden Palace Zone. It can also be strengthened through the use of Chaos energy.[6]
