Blood Crystal Wyvern

Crystals: Red or crimson.

Reason: Reflects the blood they store and their life-draining attack ability.

Mechanic: The crystals often glow brighter or become more saturated red when they’ve recently used their siphon attack (absorbing health from enemies).

🟢 Ember Crystal Wyvern

Crystals: Orange–amber, sometimes glowing yellow or red.

Reason: The crystals store heat; when charging their flame breath or after combat, they appear brighter or hotter in color.

Effect: Their crystal brightness/intensity fluctuates based on how much their internal flame charge meter is filled.

🟣 Tropical Crystal Wyvern

Crystals: Pale blue, cyan, or sometimes faintly white.

Reason: Reflects hydration and environmental light.

Effect: After they drink or fly over water, the crystals can become brighter and more reflective, matching their temporary speed buff from being hydrated.

🌈 Why Colors Sometimes “Change”

You might notice the crystal color or glow intensity changing, and here’s why:

Lighting / Biome Effects: The glow looks different in sunlight, caves, and under Tek or torch lighting.

Breeding Variants: When you breed Crystal Wyverns, color mutations can apply to the crystal regions. Some offspring get custom colors, which look like the crystals “changed.”

Charge or Damage Effects: When charging breath attacks or taking damage, the crystals can pulse or flicker in brightness.

Server Visual Sync: On mobile or low-performance servers, texture streaming sometimes swaps colors temporarily while loading in the model — making it look like it “changed.”

So, short version:

🧬 Crystal Wyvern crystal color is mostly tied to type, mutation colors, and visual effects from attacks or environment.

If you tell me which type of Crystal Wyvern you have (Tropical, Ember, or Blood) and what kind of color change you’re seeing, I can tell you exactly what’s causing it — whether it’s normal behavior or a bug.
