Well, I've gotten started.
The new entity will be comprised of several castes of Crystal Ponies (body size smaller than normal, dual-grasping with TK attached to front hooves) and lesser alicorns. Crystal Ponies will have a unique material/tissue set (skeletal structure comprised of a hard crystalline material). The same set will be used for several new large roamers, and there'll be reactions to process the crystal parts.

I'll make an effort to look into the existing set of farmed pants and probably get rid of some redundancies, in order to add someting crystal-y.

Farmed pants? Wut? Did I miss something?

PANTS! WE NEED PANTS! Can't you see, pants are the best thing THEY ARE BETTER THAN SHORTS!

But I never wear pants! They itch!

[Iceblaster]

But they are soft and easy to wear... relatively speaking, also YELLING IN THE MIDDLE OF SENTENCES is fun

Ahem... Gentlemen.
*too lazy to find a picture*

The Crystal Empire creature is in progress. Currently:
-Several castes of gem ponies (Ruby, Sapphire, Amber, Emerald, Amethyst, Topaz) and the Demicorns.
-Gem ponies are relatively small, dwarf size (60), Demicorns are smaller than normal alicorns (130).
-Castes have specifically allocated attribute ranges and skill growths, due to the distribution of roles.
-Rubies and Sapphies are both physically formidable "combat" castes, and also both specialize in smithing. Rubies can also be stoneworkers, and Sapphires can be woorworkers
-Ambers are farmers
-Emeralds are rangers / marksponies and engineers
-Amethysts are more suited for noble positions (including doctors and managers)
-Topaz are craftsponies
-Demicorns can do anything

-Going to use this excellent idea about the assistant medic position, as well as the scribe position.

-There's a plant called the Changeling Fern. It grows for a long time (almost a year), but then it can be used to replicate gems. A reaction of pulped ferns with a gem produces a malleable gem mass which can be used to fashion gem furniture (or it can be just broken into more gems).

Going to go over the list of plants (vanilla and modded), see what's redundant and what more can be changed.

-In progress with the reviewing of plants. Removed some redundancies, both cave and aboveground.

-The three gemvines are replaced by the Chromatic Vine. Slow-growing (more than half a season), valueable (with all the plant product types present). Chromatic cloth is treated into Gemcloth using obsidian and catalyst mushrooms.

-New idea: Advanced Distillery, a building that creates multi-component drinks.

[Iceblaster]

Quick question, do you plan on putting Sparkle-Cola in the Advanced Distillery(If it comes to fruition) asking because you already have some things from Fallout Equestria(I.M.P, Unity, Hellhounds)

I think it would imply a somewhat higher level of technology than the one in my version. I kinda don't see mass-produced bottled soft drinks here.

Will there be anything akin to Sombra in the mod? Also, what about adorable crystal sheep?

Okay then, we can wait for the industrial revolution

The Demicorns look like this.

How about adorable feral mutated crystal ponies?

-I've edited the list of plants. Several, both surface and underground, were redundant. I've also tried to balance out the material values of different products; especially with Nido's custom plants.

-Several plants were made unfarmable (only available with herbalism), with high-value extract/drink.

-Crystal Berries. A surface plants that grows for a long time (more than 1 season), and can be processed into an ornamental gem. The gem can be further enhanced into a semi-precious and then precious one.
