Ancient Showers (Ominous Weather Event)

A rare phenomenon that only occurs during the night by drinking a ominous potion during a certain moon phase, instead of dropping typical meteors from the sky they will instead drop meteor/cosmo based critters that could potentially harm players and mobs and when they crash to the ground they won’t damage blocks but they’ll hurt (badly) if hit by them on impact

    A few ideas: Instead of a moon phase, the event begins when you drink it in proximity of a certain structure, maybe an abandoned observatory. This observatory would generate in a mini biome of some sort, maybe in a biome variant of the badlands. I feel this would fit the vibe and also makes sense as there is a lot of open sky. Another thing to consider is that the event would only take place within proximity of the structure. This would stop one player's actions from affecting the entire world as possibly disrupting other players. The idea behind the ominous potion is to choose to make things harder and since it’s an ominous event it would actually need to be a challenge as well. Now, we need to incentivize finding this rare structure. I'm thinking a drop of some kind. A quick idea I thought of is to have the critters drop fireballs. This would be a throwable item that functions like a ghast fireball or the fireballs from Hypixel Bed wars. Fireballs are very fun and this would be a way to add them to Minecraft. Due to the size of this proposal, this would make a great game-drop idea and would be able to be developed and implemented quickly. If you want to see this is a idea added to Minecraft vote up this post and comment. Or feel free to add to the idea and comment below.

    Another way for players to witness a peaceful experience with this weather event is that the meteor shower will show a captivating visual of meteors passing by the world (no actual meteors or asteroids will crash into the world) and then once you apply the ominous effect the event will start.

    The abandoned observatory is a interesting idea, but here's the thing about ominous events, all of the ominous events so far are started by blocks, (trial spawners and beds owned by villagers) so their needs to be some sort of special alter block that should, in my opinion be crafted by finding special leftover materials inside the observatory, you need these materials to create the blocks, and then you need the blocks to create this alter or locating beacon to attract the space critters and that's how the event could start specifically in that area.
