'''Banya Crystals''' are crystals that appear in [[Lavasteam]] in ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]]''. According to [[Miney]], they are the key to Lavasteam's prosperity, although the truth behind this statement is uncertain due to [[Salem]]'s meddling. It is not known if or how these crystals are related to [[Banya]] and whether or not they are edible. However, some characters imply that they are.

=={{Icon|Tower}} Appearance ==
Banya Crystals are typically represented as semi-opaque blue crystals. In levels, Banya Crystals appear to be much larger than [[Raposa]] or the [[Hero]]. Here, Banya Crystals often grow in crystal clusters from the surrounding stone and rock.

=={{Icon|Book}} Story==
In ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]]'', [[Miney|King Miney]] had forced his people to mine for Banya Crystals after becoming close with [[Salem]]. According to many of the workers of [[Lavasteam]], they had been mining for days on end with no breaks. When [[Jowee]], [[Sock]], and the [[Hero]] first arrive, Miney forces them to mine for Banya Crystals in [[Crystal Caverns]] before he would tell them where [[Cookie]], [[Farmer Brown]], and [[Count Choco]] were working. Eventually, Miney's and Salem's plans are undone by the combined efforts of Jowee, the Hero, [[Key]], and [[Moe]]. It is unknown what part Banya Crystals played in the Lavasteam economy after this point.
