I want Endermen to become allies instead of just hostile mobs.
Right now we only kill them for pearls and XP. I want to change that with a new mechanic:
1. If the player doesn't look at Endermen and gives them blocks, they become "End Friends".
2. These "End Friends" follow you, help you mine, and protect you from other mobs.
3. They talk in reversed chat messages like: "Let me show you my ancient city" = "ytic tneicna ym uoy wohs em teL"
Lore reason: Endermen were the ancient builders before they got cursed. By helping them, players discover their lost civilization and get a new way to play.
This connects lore + gameplay + emotion. Players would stop killing them and start saving them instead.
