Crystals are nothing more than storage.  If you have FULL sp, when
you apply a crystal, you'll dump half your mana into it.  If you
have ANYTHING LESS THAN FULL sp, you'll suck power out of the crystal,
until it is out of power.

Power crystals are a way to increase your magic "gas tank", in
exchange for the hassle of managing them, and the expense/risk
of getting them in the first place.
