Image 9: A Minecraft screenshot of Foolish’s statue of DreamXD. It is a statue of a tall, slim figure wearing a green hooded robe that obscures its face, with a white underside and golden accents. The statue has two intersecting circular halos around its head, that form an X when viewed from the front. Large, white, feathery-looking wings stretch out behind its body. One hand is held out, palm up, and a blue and green Eye of Ender floats above it. The other hand hangs by its side, holding a large sword. It is sunset in the game in this screenshot, and the light of the sun illuminates the statue from behind.
