So currently in the game we have only a few races in the overworld which are villagers, illagers, pillagers, golems and us the players but how about a new race called the elves, this elves will not be like the usual smaller ones like the Santa Claus ones no no no this ones will have player size and pretty similar to us players but with the difference of having pointy ears (but not being excessively large only like 3 pixels high and 4 long also they will be 3D and be obviously on the side of their head), also blue and green pupils, large hair and with color variants being blond, brown and red/orange, and finally a pale peach skin color hex: ffe4d2 RBG: 255,228,210, those are the characteristics that will differentiate the elves from the players and the elves won’t have the arms together like the villagers they will have it like us and of course they won’t have a big nose like the villagers either they will be like us but with the differences I mentioned before, there will be male and female elves as well this elves will be a passive race having a nice relationship with us and they will trade with you unique elf items but only a few elves have the ability of trading here is an example only 1 elf out of 10 will be able to trade but this traders will only offer you elf weapons and armor as well as sometimes food, xpbottles and enchanted books with special elf enchantments but that’s all they will trade with you and it will be expensive after all the trading function already belongs to the villagers, I’ll explain the reason of this later on but for now the next thing for them will be that they will have elf warriors and this warriors will be a neutral mob if you attack him at least 10 times all elves will hate you and attack you they will be there to defend the elves (the 10 time hit thing it’s because they may accidentally hit an elf if there is lag so 10 times so he has the chance to still be friends with them), the warriors will be static mobs even when you spawn them in and not moving unless they are going to attack a hostile mob or you but they will all get to the entrance of their village/kingdom when a raid is about to happen (this will be explained later on) and some will be found patrolling the area they spawn in but that’s a 5 out of 10 chance for them to do that and the only way to see elf warriors moving around actively will be if we found an elf patrol roaming around (I’ll talk about this in the next paragraph), there will also only be 3 elven kingdoms in your on your Minecraft world the generation will be similar to the fortresses of the end portal and each kingdom will have unique armor design for their warriors, one kingdom will appear in a birch/roof biome (it will be random on which forest will they appear), the second in a snow biome and the last one will be next to a ocean (to be more specific, on a beach), the kingdoms will have an elf lord who will be strong in battle and always surrounded by elven warriors, the villages will have a chief who will go out and defend the village as while riding an a elk, all villages and kingdoms will have sword warriors and spear man as well as archers to guard the walls that the villages and kingdoms will have to defend themselves but they will need our help as well sometimes, they will also be way more skillful with the bow than the sword they will as well sometimes mount horses and have an artificial intelligence complex enough for them to be disciplined and make strategies in battle, one example is that if the elves detect that they are severely outnumbered they will run away to get safe then after a few seconds they will go back to fight, that’s just one example, the elves will also be immune to zombies, this means that there will not be a zombie variant for the elves.
-Now to talk about the elf patrols, this elf patrols will be found roaming around the world like the illager patrols but this ones will be formed by 8-12 elves and one elf captain mounted on a horse and maybe other two elves can be mounted on horses too, this patrols will not appear in deserts, savanna and mesa biomes but that’s it, as concern for the rest of the biomes they will be able to appear in all of them, and so to make the world feel more natural and alive with them the elf patrols will randomly come across some illager patrols and they will start fighting each other, you can intervene in this little battle event or simple not this won’t affect the elves that much since they will be strong fighters and they will have a fair chance to win anyways as long as there are no ravagers in that patrol, and lastly to end the patrol section there will be a chance of you finding an elf patrol passing by a village and find them trading with the villagers, the elves will have the ability to dismount their horses when they are not fighting but if you have the bad omen effect and a raid starts or it’s night time and enemies arrive to the village the elves that have horses will mount them and prepare for battle, in the raids they will stay with you to help you defend the village but the new hostile mob the orcs will join the raids (I’ll talk about him next) in order to make things more interesting and dangerous, once the raid is over if any elf survived they will go on their way back to their village or kingdom even if the captain dies the elves will stay on your side until the raid ends or they die in battle but if you don’t start a raid in a village and there are elves there they will stick around that village for about 5 days in Minecraft in a little base camp with wool tents in the outskirts of the village and then they will leave the village leaving their tents behind mounting their horses and going on their way, but the only villages we have to take care of will be the desert and savanna ones since elves will not like at all warm biomes so when it comes to defending them this is quite balanced, to be clear the elves will help us but not every time and so the relationship of the elves and villagers will work as elves defending them from hostile mobs and the villagers will trade/give them everything they need to survive, its like their relationship with us, and the relationship that we will have with the elves will be the enemy of my enemy is my friend what I mean is that they fight in our side because they hate all hostile mobs and they are willing to fight with us to defend their people and they will defend the villagers only because of what they can provide to them, but the main reason is that they want peace and prosperity but they can’t have it with the evil beings and like this we would gain new friends for our adventure.
-The enemies of the elves and new hostile mobs for the overworld, their names will be orcs and trolls, orcs will spawn in your world naturally in day and in night, their aspect will be humanoid type being 2 pixels higher than players and elves, their skin color will be gray with a few touches of white and black and some of them will have red/white painted battle marks on their body and the ones with both colors will be the leaders of their group, they will also have yellow pupils and yellow teeth as well and some times they will roar when attacking, thats when we will see their teeth, they will be always armored and will bring with them swords, spears, bows and crossbows to fight with against us and they will also join the illager patrols, as for the troll, they will be 3 blocks higher than the iron golems and they will only appear on the night because they will become stone during the day, we will also be able to find them in caves sleeping at day, they will only wake up in the night or if we wake them up, trolls some times will be found roaming around the caves and they will also wield a big log with iron spikes coming out of it, now going back to the orcs they will go and try to kill all elves but they will also go with a few pillagers and ravagers since they work together and they will also join on the raids as well and there will be new special raids for the elf villages and kingdoms this will be like the normal raids except 20% more harder and this time trolls will join the raids and its only in this raids that the elf guards of the villages/kingdoms will get into action, also orcs and pillagers/illagers will have signed their alliance and be together on their mission to kill us, the villagers, golems, elves and tree giants (I’ll talk about them at the end of the post), the orcs will also have their own area as well as the elves have their kingdoms and villages and the villagers have villages the orcs will have base camps, this base camps will consist on a series of at least 23 tents, 5 watch towers, 2 armories with pretty juicy loot and one prison where they will have villagers and elf citizens captured, the area of this camps will be completely burned and decayed and not only orcs will be there but as well as a few pillagers and ravagers, but there will be another 2 events happening in this base camps of orcs, the first will consist you seeing a good amount of orcs, pillagers, ravagers and pillagers riding ravagers marching out to a random place like if they where going to attack one of the kingdoms and the second one will be on seeing how a not so big group of elves of one of the kingdoms attacks the camp having the mission to free the prisoners from the orcs, this events are completely random and you can witness them yourself staying in that area for some time or simply you are just walking by casually and you find an orc base that is being attacked by the elves and we can chose to intervine in any of the events or no after all this events are to make the world feel even more alive and I repeat the elves will always have a nice chance of winning themselves it all depends on what type of kingdom attacks and how many enemies there are, for all of this there will also be new horn sounds an elf horn sound will be able to be heard when the elves attack the orcs base camps, when they find a illager patrol and attack it and when they defend their kingdom/village, and the orc horn sound will be heard when they attack the elven villages/kingdoms and when they use it as alarm when elves are attacking them, one last thing about the orcs, if you put their armor on they will see you as one of them since they will be dumb but if you attack one they will recognize you and attack you but you won’t be able to fool the rest of the hostile mobs only the orcs and trolls.
-Now to talk about the elks, the elks will spawn in forests and cold biomes and you will be able to ride them but only if you feed them apples and use an special elk saddle and as well as some elk armor to make them more strong, this is another thing that you will find the villages and kingdoms, the elks will also have the ability on taking down anyone they charge against with their antlers, they will do 3 hearts of damage with no armor on in easy and normal, but 5 hearts on hard difficulty, they will also be able to use this attack in battle while they are being mounted by an elf and even by us, but with us it will take down half of our xp bar by every attack, elks in battle are not invencible they can be take down by pillagers or any orc archer, they will have 10 hearts and the main difference between them and the horses is that elks are way more difficult to tame and that they will jump 35% less than horses and be 10% less faster than them but of course this can change on their charge attack.
-So as concern for the new weapons, armor, items, blocks and a few behavior parts, the elves and orcs will use brand new different weapons and armors such as elvish swords, elvish bows, spears and knives yup a lot of new weapons and you will not be able to craft them in a regular crafting table, except the spears and knives since there will be human variants for this weapons for you to craft, the elvish ones are the ones you will not be able to craft only in a special elvish crafting table only obtainable in the villages and kingdoms and you will also find them already crafted on the chests of the villages and kingdoms and in the trader elves never in dungeons or temples, the crafting recipe will consist of a new ore called elvish steel, you can find this new metal in the elf mines of the kingdoms or in the nearby land caves of the elven territory but only there since this is a exclusive material for the elves, the armor for the villages will be made from leather and leaves and their weapons made from iron, the armor of the kingdoms will have different 3D designs for the helmets, the weakest kingdom armor will be made from iron and gold, the second kingdom their armor will be made from iron, gold and elvish steel and finally for the strongest kingdom their armor will be made from iron, elvish steel and diamonds, all the weapons of the kingdoms will be made from elvish steel and the villages weapons will be made from iron only the elf chief of a village will have a elvish blade, all their bows will be same crafted by one piece of elvish steel, two gold pieces and 3 strings, as for the orcs their armors and weapons will be way weaker than the elf ones but they will be more numerous than the elves and their armor and weapons will be finded in chests of any place and in the armor stands and chests of their bases but the places that they won’t be will be the villages, elf villages and kingdoms, they will also drop them as loot as well and they won’t have a crafting recipe ever, the armor of every elf kingdom will be unique they will also be distinguished by the best defense and the best equipment to the least defended and least equipped as I said before, but their skills will never change, and one last thing about the elf weapons is that the swords and knives will glow blue when there is any hostile mobs nearby but this won’t work with the ender dragon and the wither boss, and of course mojang don’t add all of the elf related stuff and the orc related stuff to the wandering trader trades please because the whole point of this it’s to explore for our selves and see the world so mojang no matter how expensive you want to put it so it becomes balanced just no because in already created worlds people will already have emeralds and they will just buy it so no please because I know new players will don’t want to explore the world and the game will became more easy but the majority of us don’t like that let them explore for themselves and survive and I know I sound very direct here and I know I got out of topic and I apologize for that but I had speak for us players on how we feel, so whatever you do please don’t add them as wandering trader trades please.
-Now one last elf thing it’s well actually another creatures that are with us in this fight against the evil mobs they are called the tree giants (they don’t have to be named like that maybe mojang can give them a better name if they want), this giants will be peaceful creatures that will share the same interest as the elves on having peace although they will have a different view, what I mean is that they will be neutral, this tree giants (as their name says) will be tree humanoids that are 2 blocks higher than the iron golems and they will have vines dropping down their arms and legs and they will also have leaves on their body and on the top of their head, the giants will be stronger than the iron golems but they have less health and durability, they will be able to spawn in roof forests, flower forests, birch forests and in the elf villages nearby area roaming around and there will at least 3-6 giants in that area but not in the kingdoms after all the kingdoms already have a bunch of loot and elves so they aren’t needed there because the kingdoms will be to OP but the villages being weaker they need their help, there will be also at least 8-10 giants in the area you find and you will notice the area that this giants are on it will be more beautiful than the normal ones with more animals and flowers, the giants will show peaceful towards us but of course don’t hit them more than 5 times or else they will consider you as a threat to them and they won’t attack you just show defensively unless you hit one of them a sixth time that’s when they will attack you, the giants will attack orcs, pillagers, illagers or any other hostile mob thats seems threatening and they will deal 5 more points of damage than a golem, fire enchants and fire attacks deal way more damage than other type of attack they can also some times be found wielding a tree stump as when they attack with this stump their damage will increase up to 7 more points above the golems, they will drop 2-3 saplings, 3 leaves blocks, 4 oak logs and a leaf item that will serve to make new leaf armor but there will only be the chest plate, helmet and boots for this type of armor,they will drop up to 3, they will also serve kinda as the elf golems but we will not be able to summon them instead they can only be found naturally but they of course will have their on spawn egg and obviously they won’t have a big nose like iron golems, they will also be involved when there are raids going on a elf village they will go help their fellow elves in their fights because elves and tree giants will have a really good relationship of friends and if by any chance the giants spawn nearby a normal village they will not help during a raid they will just see and wait (to make it balanced), the giants will be a new race that will also help us and they are balanced as well they have 5 more points of attack damage than an iron golem but they will have only half of the health of a golem and they will also be weak to fire and be rare to find, that’s all for the tree giants and remember that mojang is free to change anything even the name and even add more interesting things to this creatures (except their aspect).
To end this post this is why I think elves should be introduced, so you all know that Minecraft is becoming more dangerous and now even more since the village and pillage update and the only friendly creatures that can help us fight the evil mobs of the world are the iron golems, snow golems, wolfs and even maybe the wandering trader llama but I believe we need a race that we can feel it’s there to help us and fight in our side and yes we have villagers but they are peaceful and they don’t like fights and they will never do, and you may wonder why elves and not any other fantasy race, it’s simple elves represent the good of the world, the peace and beauty of nature and the magic feels that Minecraft gives us and it will feel even more fantasy with the tree giants and orcs, the elves are also warriors and friendly creatures that will help us to feel less alone in the vast world of Minecraft as well to have someone supporting us in the aspect of adventures and battles and not with special items and trades (only a few little part of them),as well the events I mentioned before that will happen randomly in the world will help the players push forward their adventure side and want to go out and explore the world to find all this new creatures of Minecraft and try get new and interesting items, and the thing that will make villagers so different from the elves is that villagers are a friendly race and trader one as well as an allie to you, but the elves will be as well a friendly race towards you but it will not be a trader one as you can see in first topic I touched in the beginning of the post, in fact elves will be a warrior race and they will support you not only as being friends but also with helping you in battle, this will be the main difference between the two races and as well to balance things the elf villages will be 28% more rare than the villager ones and the kingdoms will be 50% more rare and as well I put as well orcs and trolls so we will have even more challenges in the overworld, so please if this ever gets to under review thing, mojang please consider it ok because it means people vote for it and they want to see it in a future update for the game and im sure you can think on a way to make them even more exciting and even change a few behaviors well except their fighting thing and the aspect keep that no matter what please.
Ok hope you like the post this alone can be a whole update it should be called The Elvish Update but for now concentrate on the Cave, Combat, Nether, Biome and The End Dimention update and I believe that only after those updates it will be a good idea to implement this new exciting creatures and I’m sorry if this post is a little bit long but i needed to say every single characteristic that the elves must have so if they get added they become an amazing addition into the game, ok good bye have a good day/night and if you like the post vote for it ok now bye.
