This crystal is the size of a child’s fist and is covered in eldritch runes, glowing in different shades depending on the element held within. Each crystal of elemental knowledge contains knowledge of one spell-like utility wild talent (such as wings of air) which can be determined by examining the crystal for 1 minute with a successful DC 15 Spellcraft check. If a creature with the utility wild talent class feature spends 24 hours attuning themselves to a crystal, they can use the contained utility wild talent as long as they would normally be able to select it (for example, a geokineticist cannot use a crystal containing earth glide until 6th level, or one containing acid pit if they aren’t also a toxikineticist and 8th level).
A creature cannot use a utility wild talent gained from a crystal of elemental knowledge as a prerequisite to take another utility wild talent and can only be attuned to one crystal at a time. If a creature has the expanded element class feature, they can attune themselves to an additional crystal for each time they have gained that class feature.
A crystal of elemental knowledge can also potentially contain an infusion instead. This functions similarly to one which contains a utility wild talent, except the user must have the infusion class feature instead of the utility wild talent class feature and must possess a kinetic blast to which that infusion is associated (for example, a hydrokineticist cannot use a crystal containing quenching infusion if they do not possess a kinetic blast to which quenching infusion is associated, or if they cannot select infusions (such as if they are a kinetic chirurgeon)).
A crystal of elemental knowledge is priced based on the level of the wild talent it contains.
