Caves and Cliffs: Cursed Altar

Cursed Altars would generate deep underground (in some sort of dungeons/crypts or the deep dark?) Inside a room, surrounded by candles. The block would be unobtainable and look similar to an Enchanting Table, but more sinister with spikes and the like. It would give off a slight glow and, when standing close by, it would make whispering sounds. Interacting with it while holding an enchantable item would cause the screen to shake briefly and a creepy sound to play. The candles would go out, and the Warden (if nearby) would be alerted. The item you used on the Altar would receive 1 to (rarely) 3 random high level enchantments or curses (or some sort of new unique 'dark' enchantment or curse, which would be a topic for another post).

    This sounds really cool, but maybe instead of it just being chance that The Warden is nearby, maybe it could be it's own area in the Deep Dark

    Agreed. This probably would work best in the Deep Dark

    Also, I didn't state this in the post, but these would probably be one time use, to encourage you to go explore the Deep Dark to see if you can find more.

    To add to the pool of curses:
    Curse of Constricting: the reach of cursed tool is reduced by 1 block.
    Curse of reacting: blocks broken have a 1% chance to explode.
    Curse of misdirecting: illusion mobs sometimes spawn in darkness close to the player.
