Magicite is the stone form of an Esper. Once an Esper dies, they turn into Magicite.
No shit, they look like a crystal ? Just because they look like a crystal does not means they are the same crystals from the previous 5 games, their creation and purpose in the game is different than those before before, hell their entire concept in game is not the same.
