Crawlers, also known as Gem Crawlers, are a group of primarily-Pre-Hardmode enemies that spawn in either the underground layer, the cavern layer, or a specific underground biome, depending on their type. They currently come in eight varieties:
- One for each of the six gem types, exclusive to either the underground or cavern layers depending on gem value.
- One for Amber, exclusive to the Underground Desert.
- One for Crystal Shards, exclusive to the Underground Hallow and therefore Hardmode.
Crawlers spawn hiding in their gem shells. When damaged, they begin to run away from the player.

Tips
- The existence of the crawlers makes farming for gems and crystals a lot easier.
Trivia
- The
Bestiary entry for the Crawlers: "Relatives to the Ilmeran Sea's prismbacks. The aquatic lizards ended up in the wild after being taken in as pets, though without the proper nutrients to grow prisms on their back, many grew the next best thing– precious gems."
- Their damage and defense are sorted from "cheapest" gem to "most expensive" gem.
