| - [Source] A crystal prison was a type of portable prison that could be activated from a crystal round by a harmonic inducer. During a skirmish in Mos Espa, the bounty hunter Sülphurr Cyander used a crystal prison in an attempt to restrain Cad Bane and Ttekket.

- Diamonds are forever, which comes in handy when you want to make someone really suffer during a life sentence while keeping them (securely!) caged. Characters in a Crystal Prison are put inside some gorgeous, colorful and exquisitely cut variety of gem. This crystal is usually made of Phlebotinum capable of keeping the captive alive despite the lack of air, either in suspended animation or forever awake. This escape proof prison may trap them bodily like a bug in amber; in fact, if the Crystal Prison isn't coffin sized it's going to be small enough to be worn as jewelry.

| - Diamonds are forever, which comes in handy when you want to make someone really suffer during a life sentence while keeping them (securely!) caged. Characters in a Crystal Prison are put inside some gorgeous, colorful and exquisitely cut variety of gem. This crystal is usually made of Phlebotinum capable of keeping the captive alive despite the lack of air, either in suspended animation or forever awake. This escape proof prison may trap them bodily like a bug in amber; in fact, if the Crystal Prison isn't coffin sized it's going to be small enough to be worn as jewelry. While breaking the gem can release the captive, attempting this literal jailbreak may not be a guarantee of getting the captive out alive. Breaking it could also shatter or kill the captive, or the gem may be unbreakable unless the jailer/creator somehow dispels it. That being said, a prisoner who is pushed into using Heroic Resolve may crack open the crystal through sheer force of will. If the crystal is imprisoning a very important character, and if Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors is in-universe at the time, this can get a person or persons from all the various groups to combine their powers into one technique, preferably in a big Finale or at least a Swirly Energy Thingy that features Power Glows, and dis-integrate, not disintegrate (breaking, not incinerating or atomizing) the crystalline prison. Contrast Soul Jar, where the Soul is put in a crystal, and Body to Jewel, where the character becomes crystal. Also compare Harmless Freezing, with ice blocks being the main difference. See also Mineral MacGuffin, Magic Mirror, Phantom Zone and Power Crystal. As you can see from the example distribution, this is most common in anime and video games. Examples of Crystal Prison include:
