Dryad: The new blaze

We have a blaze variant for fire and wind, but there are two paintings remaining.

  • Renamed "the flare" to dryad. Thanks for your feedback.

Dryad

The Ancient Builders created dryads to protect the Pale Gardens from deforestation. Dryads are a fast flying mob that tilts its body in the direction it is moving. It also can't drown. Dryads have 40HP (20 hearts), and it can use nearby creaking hearts to restore its health. Whenever it is hurt, it will scream like an Aztec death whistle.

When it attacks, it will make a loud screeching sound like a barn owl. It will shoot an orange ball that does a small amount of damage and it will effect you with the Thorns effect, which is similar to mining fatigue (except only for wood/creaking-heart). It will attack anyone holding an axe, like vindicators and piglin brutes.

It drops a dryad rod, which can be crafted into resin orbs. Resin orbs could be brewed in a potion (after glowstone dust has been applied) to increase the potency, like Lev.10 for potion of leaping. You could throw resin orbs to cause the thorns effect. Dryad rods could be used as sticks in crafting or furnace fuel.

You could also use a dryad rod and a resin orb to make a wand which can shoot resin orbs (using wheat seeds as ammo). Attacking with it does equal damage to an iron sword and it does a lot of knockback. It can be enchanted with fire aspect.

 

 

Small request. If you add this to the game, could you make a cape that looks like a creaking heart and give it to me on Bedrock.

    good idea resin orbs increase all potion potency but only one level and new name for flare to much like the blaze needs to be plant or pale garden themed

    I think the resin orbs could also be thrown and do the same thing the flares projectiles do

    Very good idea but what about water? The thorns effect should also poison you but only a bit

    I like this idea but it needs an earthy name like terra or something pale garden related the resin orbs should give a potion of thorned (thorns effect) instead of jump boost

    Ahh yes an Aztec death whistle. very common and well known sound thank you for such a clear description, I do like this idea it seems like the exact type of mob Mojang would add to the game these days
