Herolich

Spoiler:

Username: Aaranos
Server: Survival

The Herolich will be a boss of the nether that can control zombie pigmen. He will gather nearby zombie pigmen within 100 blocks and patrol nether fortresses. The once thought legend Herobrine was further corrupted and brought back thanks to the necrotic energy given off by the nether. He is now an undead that controls the zombie pigmen and seeks to find Steve and slay him for taking him down many years past.

I like this mob idea because it sticks to the minecraft theme and uses monsters that are already in the game. My photoshop picture sucks so I made a front and back view in minecraft to give it the more detailed view.

Don't win the competition! You will not play any minecraft! Gosh I've had Bastion for 5 days and have beaten it and started the second play-through already its so good.


His name is Exuseus and he will spawn in the new temples.

Pig Jockeys.

Looks like Steve riding a pig. It's a guardian mob(just like golems) that attacks hostile mobs and will attack you if you attack him first. He wields a bow and is able to shoot creepers without having the creepers explode. He serves as a vigilante ally and is like the polar opposite of Spider Jockeys. Pig Jockeys will not follow you(unlike cats and wolves), and tend to go hunting mobs in caves at day and on the surface at night. They're Notorious for being able to defeat creepers without letting the creeper explode. They don't place torches(making spelunking for you easier), and can see in the dark.

They naturally attack Skeletons, Zombies, Creepers and Hostile Spiders, and leave most passive mobs alone. They help you fight monsters like wolves do, but can betray you and attack from a distance if you hurt them.

Name- Vampire
The vampire is a very rare mob that spawns at night in your house when your sleeping and Gives you a debuff that slowly drains your health when in direct sunlight.

Vampires lock them self away in abandoned mineshaft's to stop them self's from harming others and are more likely to spawn in them, Ways to avoid the vampire attacks is to have your house over a body of water because vampires cant cross running water, or to find an extremely rare garlic in an abandoned mineshaft and place it over your bed.

To cure the vamperism is to craft the cure, you can only find the cure down in abandoned mineshaft's or off slain vampires that are wondering trying to find the components of the cure, The cure would be a book that you can open to get the ingredients, All the ingredients needed would be in some sort of riddle, but you cant simply get the recipe off the wiki because you need the book or at least of read it to be able to craft it

Name - Shade

The shade is an apparition that spawns only in strongholds. They're protectors of The End and its fortress. The shades originally came from lost souls that died when they made the venture into The End. They became trapped between realms, forever protecting both sides of the portal. They have no mercy and feel no pain, they only hunger for the character of ones self. They never really die, they only are sent between realms, only to be summoned back the following day.

Stats:
Health: 30 hp (15 hearts).
Damage: 8 hp (4 hearts) per hit.
Armor: None

Powers:
-The shade can fly into and between walls, making escape difficult.
-The shade uses ranged attacks on players, doing 4 hearts of damage no matter what armor you have (see weaknesses)
-If you are too close to a shade, it may disarm you, though it does 2 hp (1 heart) less damage to you when within melee range.
-If a player is hit with a shade's arcane bolt (ranged attack) the player will be drained of hunger over time.

Weaknesses:
-Weapons of any kind can not hurt the shade except for a golden sword (must be enchanted, type of enchant is irrelevant).
-If the player is wearing enchanted golden armor then the shade's arcane bolt will do only 2 hearts of damage and the decrease in hunger effect will be negated; melee damage remains the same.

Other Notes:
-If the player kills a shade while having an empty glass bottle in their inventory the shade's essence will be sucked into the bottle. The essence can then be used for brewing, being able to create any potion with the strongest effect.
-Shades respawn once a day in random numbers, making them difficult to farm.
-When a player is near a shade, their screen will turn dark as if they are in the void.

This is the Corrupt Samurai:

Spoiler:

It is immune to fire

Spoiler:

and it is extremely fast

The Corrupt Samurai spawns from a Soul Shard block at the top of a mysterious structure and at night in the corruption(new biome):

Spoiler:

The Corrupt Samurai drops Corrupt Residue which can be crafted into various items including the Soul Orb(also need a soul shard):

Spoiler:

The orb and the sword each have there own destructive power, the sword has fire, and the orb has lava(be careful with both it is very easy to misuse):
However the orb also has the power to summon any mob in the game at will, and can be used as an almost infinite fuel source.

The mod is not completely done and not all features are currently implemented such as the ability for the orb to summon any mob.
the download is

here


to install follow these steps:
1. Install it
2. put contents in the minecraft.jar
3. delete meta-inf
4. have fun


There are some balancing issues that may come and I also want forge support for better textures but other than that and the orb this is fully functional, have fun! i like that one

Name of monster: Spidozuli

Description: A small dark blue spider that is made of Lapis Lazuli.

About the Spidozuli: the Spidozuli were actually spiders that were captured by the evil Herobrine. Herobrine used 2 spiders for an experiment that went wrong. The spiders became blue because of the lapis lazuli that was used in the experiment. The spidozuli start to clone really fast the first month and now they are everywhere in dark areas. A few Spidozuli's were tamed by Steve. He gave the spidozuli's an infection so they could be made as a tamed mob.

The Spidozuli only spawns in dark areas. It's a wild Monster that wants to kill everything.

Combat:
-The Spidozuli hits 2 hearts in 1 hit.
-It infects you with a poison that slows you down for 5 seconds.
-If the Spidozuli attacks a slime the slime will turns into a Spidozuli.
-6 Hearts
-runst as fast as a player



Loot: 3 lapislazuli

How to make the Spidozuli: 1 lapis lazuli block in the middle of with in all corners 1 wooden stick.


Fuction of a selfmade Spidozuli: The Spidozuli protect you against all other mobs. A selfmade Spidozuli works the same as a Tamed wolf.

The Tail Fiend is a deadly hovering monster found in the nether, it's a rare monster which could kill you with it's red glowing eyes. It's smiling because it knows... it's unstoppable! Wearing a pumpkin renders his red eyes harmless however so it's strongly advised to wear one. It has more powers up its sleeve though. When the player wears a pumpkin he shoots black-purple orbs of pure darkness that will (almost) blind you for 5 seconds. Enough time for the Tail Fiend to strike with it's deadly tail...

Awaiting judges decision, ta for all the entries, good luck

Thanks to everyone who entered, and apologies for the delay of announcing the winner, had some unforseen event hold the judge back at looking at all the entries.

I really like this monster, though he isn't very scary looking, he has that Monsters Inc thing going on for him, he looks like he'd be able to cheer up your character with a really big hug, with no explosion to follow. I thought it was really cool how you had made him in minecraft so well too . I also really liked his little pants ha.

I can reveal to you now the winner:

Spoiler:

Again thanks to all the entries, next time Humble release something new, we may well do this once more hurrah!
