I had the idea that Chrysoberyls would need sleep unlike other Gems a long time ago.

The idea is is that Chrysoberyls are SO weak, they need to CONSERVE energy via sleeping, so if they dont, they won't have enough energy to sustain beatings. The reason they were weak was so they couldn't fight back, which is also why some, but not all, had small weapons, as they wouldn't need them unless they were told to protect their owners and/or their owners friends.
