The Krawl Types of Minerals & Minergy
Three common types of Krawl include: Like fossils, minerals can be found buried in the ground. They
can be located and excavated with the help of Child Spectrobes.
Although treated as precious jewels by the inhabitants of the
Nanairo system, minerals are food for Spectrobes. Spectrobes
can absorb the “minergy” from minerals and use the energy to
grow. “Minergy” is the energy contained within minerals. There
are three types: health, attack and defense.
