The Evokers

I'm borrowing names/inspiration from canonical Evoker characters, but it's mostly just for fun references.

Which is to say, MC Dungeons isn't part of the AU. Walda and Thord are borrowed from MC Dungeons: Rise of the Arch-Illager and Eve is from The Minecraft Miniseries.

Evokers: Crocell - Kevin Sidharta

[convexicalcrow]

The best thing about being a Vex was being able to transport Cub to a mansion thousands of blocks away in an instant via Vexspace. Cub hadn't woken since he'd collapsed on the bridge in spite of Scar's attempts to fight off the skulk and rouse him. He'd had some success and the skulk had retreated a little more, but he knew he couldn't do this alone, and the Vex were urging Scar to hurry to the mansion. He landed outside the front door and the Vindicator inside nearly went after him before recognising him as a Vex and lowering his axe.

"Where are the priests? We need the priests!" Scar said.

The Vindicator indicated upstairs, and that's where Scar went, carrying Cub in his arms as he went. Vex magic was helping to lighten his weight so Scar didn't drop him.

"We need the priests! Someone show us where the priests are!" Scar called as he moved through the second floor.

He followed the directions a couple of Vindicators gave him as he passed and as he kept calling for the Evokers, one appeared, looking very concerned as they ran towards him.

"Oh! There you are! Hello! Got a poor Vex here who needs some help! We were told me to bring him to a mansion to help him heal. He got all skulkified! We gotta save him!" Scar said, relieved to see the priests before him.

"I'm Priest Arcturus, we were told to expect you. Bring him this way, we've prepared a room," the Evoker said.

"Hang on, Cub, help's coming, we'll get rid of all that skulk stuff, I promise," Scar said

-

Scar followed the Evoker into a room made of stone bricks in a corner of the second floor where another Evoker was waiting, tending to a brewing stand with some strange-coloured potions in it.

Priest Arcturus gestured to a bed in the middle of the room. "Lay him down. We've been preparing the healing spells. This is Priest Naos."

"Right." Scar carried Cub over and lay him down gently. He looked so peaceful, and Scar might have reached down to gently touch his face, just so Cub knew he was there with him still, but Priest Arcturus pulled him back.

"No. I know it hurts, but don't touch him further. We've already got one infected Holy Vessel. We're not going to lose you too," Priest Arcturus said.

Scar did understand. He really did. "He's going to be okay, right?"

"It might take a while, and it won't be pretty, but we're sure we can manage it," Priest Arcturus said.

"Though, I may warn you, we will have to let him back into the hivemind in order to properly ascertain the level of damage, and we know you are linked together. Be prepared for things to not be pleasant. We just don't know what this level of infection can do to a Vex let into the hivemind," Priest Naos said.

"He may be hostile, or come after you. He may have powers we are just not aware of yet. We can't be sure. Don't trust him. Consider him to be dangerous until he's free of the skulk, alright?" Priest Arcturus said.

"Alright, alright. I'll keep away. You still need me to channel? I can spare the energy while you work. You're the priests, after all. You know Vex magic better than I do," Scar said.

The Priests looked at each other. Naos spoke. "Arcturus, it may come to that. I need you on watch."

Priest Arcturus nodded and turned back to Scar. "Right. Yes, please channel for us then. I'll do my best to block you off from him so he can't find you, but that may not be enough. Go into trance, and we'll secure him and get the healing spells ready."

"On it. Just the main current? Or do you need something specific?" Scar said.

"Just the main current. Sit at the foot of the bed but don't touch it. Hopefully that will be all," Priest Arcturus said.

-

Time needed to be spent. Scar had protective bindrunes painted on his body to keep him safe from Cub if he managed to find him in the hivemind, and there was a little more preparation needed in order to seal the room and protect as much of the mansion from the skulk as possible.

And then, Scar got into place, hands pressed against the floor, as he closed his eyes and opened himself up to Vex magic, finding that current of magic that ran through everything and placing himself in the middle of it, bringing the magic into the mansion. And that would be the last thing he remembered.

I gave Akechi an Evoker

i would like to hear your enchanting table theory 👀

Alright! So, I think that the sorta language we see when we enchant stuff are sort of directions for a ritual or spell. The player doesn't completely understand how enchanting works and that's why it's gibberish when we translate it. The lapis lazuli we use is an ingredient with a special property we need to enchant, and the experience is us using our own energy to power the spell. And continuing with my idea that the player isn't great with enchanting/magic yet I think that the enchanting table is sort of like training wheels or a guide to make sure that the spell goes right. Also, there are more entities other than the player that seem to be able to use a kind of magic. The Evokers can summon Vexes and use the fang attack, but don't use any tools like the enchanting table. The Evokers perform their magic by reciting spells (I think that's what the woolooloo sound is). Because they don't need a special tool to do their magic, I think that they have a better grasp on magic than the player or even the villagers that trade enchanted tools.

Anyways, I hope that big chunk of text makes sense!

MC Idea

So, what if the Mansions aren’t what we think?

We find them and there’s mobs all over the place, Illagers and others scattered around the rooms. In these rooms it’s completely set up:

Prison Cells, Storage Rooms, Sapling Areas, Crop Growing rooms, Hell even statues of their ancestors.

There’s even graves:

So...they must live here, right? It can’t just be a conveniently set up mansion, it has to be somewhere the mobs live. Sure, the Illagers and Pillagers have their outposts and raids but those aren’t where they live. Do you see any beds or storage areas there? no, but you do in the mansions.

They build them in secluded, far off areas in dark wood forests, knowing people would have a hard time finding them. They found pumpkins, saplings and melons in those forests and started growing them in the mansion, there’s chests of wheat and enchanted books they cleared where gonna use.

And, from what I can tell, there’s meeting rooms:

Dining rooms, perhaps.

Bedrooms too, places for them to sleep. There’s rotten flesh in the chests, perhaps not of zombies but of humans, food for zombies and who knows what other mobs.

Who knows what this could be, a church-like area? A gathering place? Possibly.

There’s also Libraries, bookcases with unknown stories or research in them, they're smarter than we think, Pillagers and Vindicators at least. They’ve figured out how to make their own Banners, tame beasts and ride them into battles.

They’ve figured out how to wield axes and work crossbows, similar to how Zombies and Skeletons can wield swords and bows but...more human.

They work with witches too, Vexes created by their own kind. They are smart, so much smarter than other mobs. Sure, Strays, Zombies, Husks and Drowns wear clothes but surely their corpses of former humans. Vindicators, Pillagers and Evokers clearly aren’t undead, their cursed or...just a whole different species, one that has made their own clothing and weapons.

Not to mention some of these rooms:

Like this, what does this look like? a map. This is where they plan out their raids, where the outposts would be, the yellow could represent that.

Sometimes they build high up on cobblestone, why? Maybe so humans won’t steal their home away. Why do you think Pillager face’s are built above staircases and in rooms, it’s so people know who belongs in it.

And when some of us find these mansions, what do we do?

we kill all the mobs, we take it.

no, not take it.

Pillage.

we pillage the ones who were created to do the exact. same. thing.
