Seeded Amethyst

Seeded Amethyst is a Block of Amethyst with a Crystal Seed in it. It grows Data Crystal buds on its open sides, like budding amethyst.

• Buds grow in four steps: Small Data Crystal Bud, Medium Data Crystal Bud, Large Data Crystal Bud, then a full Data Crystal Cluster.
• Mine the cluster for Data Crystal. Fortune gives more. A bud broken early gives Crystal Dust instead.
• Each time a bud grows, the block may wear down: Seeded, Worn Seeded Amethyst, Cracked Seeded Amethyst, then a plain Block of Amethyst.
• Mined at any stage, it gives the Block of Amethyst back and the seed is lost.
• A powered Crystal Resonator makes it grow faster.
• Growing crystals draw wild Bitlings. See befriending them.
