The Crystal, formally known as Mogo, was an extraterrestrial lifeform that found its way to Earth sometime in the year 4000 B.C.E. on the coast of what is now Djibouti, Africa. Screenwriter, Max Landis, claims that when Mogo first arrived on Earth, she was no larger than a baseball, and for the following 6,000 years, Mogo slowly grew into the massive, crystallized entity that was seen in the film. Nevertheless, Mogo has always been a source of tremendous psychic power. According to Landis, the first individuals to encounter the Crystal were imbued with extraordinary capabilities, not unlike those seen in the film, which enabled these men to become the founders of civilization and subsequently worshipped as living gods.
Furthermore, after centuries of being carried from one place to another, hidden and discovered time and time again, the Crystal eventually found its way to the settlement of Washington state, where she would not be discovered again until the year 2012 C.E., after a trio of high school teenagers find her buried beneath the grounds of an abandoned farmland just outside the city of Seattle. These young men would be the last individuals to interact with Mogo before her mysterious death.
