The crystalwalker crystal has replaced its ancestor and shares bodily systems with its host. Its consumer part has linked with many body parts and organ systems. It is even connected with the nervous system. The brain is in the center of the body where the two connect. The crystals influence the host when they need sunlight, and can actually control it partially. It does this to move it into sunlight when the crystals need to photosynthesize.
The row of darker crystals on the front of the crystalwalker can detect shapes and changes in light due to the optic nerves being connected to them. The host body uses these as eyes so it can see when hunkered against the ground defending itself.
The crystalwalker crystal releases clouds of spores when the host body lays its eggs. These adhere to the sticky surface of the eggs and attaches itself to the larval form of the creature. They start to grow almost at the moment of hatching. Due to this it can defend its host at an earlier age, replacing its ancestor.
