Hello! this mod thread is going to be very simple as of right now for maximum information provided.
xCodec's Fantastical World Around you is a mod designed to Bring you into a World full of wonder's, as well as Dangers this mod will add in anything from Annoying Goblins, to Magnificent Dragons. it is even planned to add things to the Oceans.
for now, only images will be provided in the main page, and only images of things planned for the First release. All details from the mod will be Provided in the comment section, as people ask for them. please DO NOT ask for the time and/or date/when the mod will be released.
First thing you will need to see these creatures will be the Seeing Stone, the Seeing Stone can be found in dungeon chests, and Blacksmiths right clicking with it, will temporarily give you a new potion effect known as The Sight, you can combine a Seeing Stone with any helmet to permanently have The Sight, The Sight allows you to see any players or mobs who are invisible, this includes creatures from the Fantastical World
WARNING: creatures from the fantastical world CAN and WILL attack you, they can be seen temporarily before attacking, after attacking a few times they will then vanish and come back for another round if you have not killed them, you can see them coming using the seeing stone, which means it is imperative that you get this item rather quickly in your survival world, most if not all drops from these creatures can be brewed into potions of invisibility.
Goblins
Goblins are annoying yet entertaining creatures, they smell like urine, which is prone to give you nausea when one is nearby, goblins will spawn with either leather or chain helmets (10% chance for either 90% for no helmets) and usually spawn with a stone tool which they will use as a weapon (65% chance to spawn with a random stone tool 25% chance to spawn with a stick.) goblins can tear down your house to get to you if it is wooden, if you are killed by a goblin, it will take your weapons or helmet if it is better than its own, for example: a Goblin with a chain helmet on somehow manages to kill you, and you have a diamond helmet, it will drop its own helmet in turn for your diamond one, same goes for tools. goblins can also be heard due to their loud grunts and gargling noises which they make frequently. Goblins eat small animals such as Chickens, Badgers, Rabbits, and Small Ravens.
Hob Goblin:
Hobgoblins are unique in the way that humans are unique, some like shovels, some like hats, some REALLY like eating fish, and others enjoy eating birds or even just having company, if you can give a hobgoblin what he wants, it will hang around your house area, upon befriending a hobgoblin it will literally spit in your face, however, by spitting in your face it gives you a gift, the gift of The Sight. if a hobgoblin spits in your face you will have nausea for 2:30 min but you will forever have The Sight. befriending a Hobgoblin is no easy task, however. because 1.) you have to spot it first. and 2.) giving it the items it needs, or enough of the items it needs can be a very large challenge, this is due to their childish, but picky nature.
Cockatrice:
Lessar Dragon, or Long Tailed Wyvern.
Old World Drake, or Grater Dragon.
River Troll, on Land.
River Troll, In Water
i know what you are all thinking,
but codec, how do i protect myself or my animals from the invisible world.
the answer to this question is actually quite simple
first you will need salt, salt is an ore found at the same level as gold. once you have salt, you are almost done, now you will need what is known as "salt Solution" you can get salt Solution by mixing the salt, with a water bottle in a crafting table, salt solution acts the same way bonemeal does but only on the block you place it on, after using your salt solution you will be given the water bottle back, once you place salt solution on the ground it will place what is known as a toadstool, a circle of toadstools can create a unbreakable forcefield around your house only visible by the invisible world, creatures like goblins, trolls, ogres, dragons, wyverns, and most others will never be able to enter, however you are limited to a block radius of 1000 blocks, this may sound like a lot, however when you are building a large build, be mindful not all of it is guaranteed to be able to fit within a toadstool circle/square
see? all you need is some water and a little mining, how quaint...
This mod seems nice. It will be good to track its progress and to play with it when the time comes.
Just a few questions to the Developers:
Will there ever be 4 legged variants of Dragons in the mod (doesn't really matter)?
And
Would Undead Dragons ever be added (Skeletal Dragons, Zombie Dragons or Ghost Dragons)? They could be Formidable enemies to fight (maybe even bosses), or have some special way of "taming", like how to get some of the special horses in Mo' Creatures Mod.
Anyways, Keep up the Great Work!
1.) i know the dragons you are talking about, but they aren't four legged dragons, they are actually six legged dragons since the two wings on top are actually wings themselves, meaning that the dragons in the mod are already four legged, even more so since their four-wings actually double as legs. raptorfarian and Alex have been in a few dinosaur mods, and they know that the evolution of a six limbed creature is impossible, much less a creature with six limbs, breaths fire, and two of these limbs are wings. TREY the Explainer actually has a video about this somewhere.
2.) there are already skeletal dragons planned in the far future.
By antlers I assume you are referring to the small, hornlike structures on the head? Just want to be sure your not asking me to do something more like a dears antlers.
yeah, the small hornlike structures are made of the same stuff as human hair, making them antlers. sorry for all the confusion :/
actually, grey-ish green,with the antlers being dark brown, and the mane being white. eyes are golden, and reptilian. i'm excited to see what you come up with
Actually, I own that book but haven't looked at it in a long time. I don't generally have a great idea of what a model will look like when I'm done, I just surf through my database of mythical creatures from around the world (one of my hobbies) and decide on something to make. But your welcome to use the model, and I'm just doing the texturing on the model I am going to post today, so if you have any other requests, let me know.
actually, there is something you could do for me. if you could model the following that would be fantastic
