Staryu

Gold
At night, the center of its body slowly flickers with the same rhythm as a human heartbeat.
Silver
Even if its body is torn, it can regenerate as long as the glowing central core remains intact.
Crystal
When the stars twinkle at night, it floats up from the sea floor, and its body's center core flickers.
