New Crystal Beast

Crystal Beast Diamond Donkey
4* Beast/effect
If this card is destroyed while it is in a Monster Card Zone, you can place it face-up in your Spell & Trap Card Zone as a Continuous Spell Card, instead of sending it to the Graveyard. If this card is in your Spell and Trap zone it gains this effect: Other "Crystal Beast" monsters you control that are treated as Spell cards do not add to your Spell and trap Zones.
1550 ATK 1550 DEF

I don't understand the mechanics behind this. If they don't "add", where do they go? The field zone? Off of the field? You need to specify what happens once you reach 5 Gems.

I think what they mean is that they don't count toward your Spell and Trap Card limit.

But I have a question that goes for both this and the other CB created here: Aren't Crystal Beasts supposed to be based off of animals with a mythological background?

[Bringerofcake]

Yes, but if they go in your Spell and Trap Card Zone, what happens if there are four more of them? Do you suddenly get a sixth space?

Probably. I personally sought to make Rainbow Dragon playable, and replace the "loose ends" of Tortoise and Eagle. IDK about this one, though.

Cats hold a large amount of mythological lore in Japan, as to tortoises and tigers, who are even represented as directions of the wind. That is what I meant.

Gem Beasts are based off the 7 tablets of Julias Caeser, each one representing a Gem.
