Shadewood trees would be a nether exclusive tree that spawns inside the large lava lake below, up to 3 blocks below.

These trees are fireproof but not blast resistant which is why they spawn at lower levels.

Shadewood leaves have a slightly less chance of dropping a shadewood sapling than jungle trees drop

jungle saplings.

Shadewood grows up to 12 blocks high often spliting in 2 or 3 directions around the fifth block up.

Shadewood trees also have a 1/20 chance of dropping nether fruit.

Shadewood trees can generate shadewood leaves up to 3 blocks away starting at the fourth block up.

Shadewood only grows on netherack.

Apperances:

Shadewood block

A ashy, pale purple wood that has a coat of charcoal on the outside.

Shadewood leaves

A rusty purple leave that has circular designs on all sides.

Shadewood saplings

A bright purple bulb looking seed that has a charcoal coated bottom.

Nether fruit

An obnoxious gasy looking purple, it doesn't seem too appealing.

The nether fruit can be thrown and will draw zombies, zombie pigmen, skeletons and wither skeletons to it

Ok, here's the thing. I like the basic idea of the tree, but not all the other uses for the wood. I like the fruit, but the tower, prison, and that stuff doesn't really seem right to me. Personally, I'd just keep it a way to get fireproof wood and the occasional fruit. Also, I'd (personally) make them bigger and spawn them in the actual lava, to give the surface a little texture. However, that won't change my support.

Half Support.

fair enough. I will edit that
