minecraft mods scare me sometimes

A propaganda speech about playing as a Merling:

I've been playing Minecraft: Origins mod as a merling and I speak with utmost honesty and a burning passion when I tell you I never want to play as anything else ever again. Vanilla Minecraft has lost it's appeal since I can't be a merperson there. I've been cursed and blessed to always feel the longing for the depths forevermore.

Basically as soon as you find an ocean, you're set for life. You'll find ships with treasure and underwater nether portals, and oh so many huge caves. You get rich ridiculously fast by swimming through huge underwater caves and clearing them of diamonds, gold and iron. They're 50 blocks below you? You can just swim down. No fall damage, no monsters. On the ceiling? Doesn't matter, just swim up there. And you can swim FAST. I cannot stress this enough, you are FAST underwater, and that's even before you get Depth Strider III. And there's no monsters nor trees nor terrain nor obstacles that usually slow you down up on the surface, you can just literally swim really fast over everything and see everything from above (and with good vision, as the merling vision underwater is always great, no matter the time of day). It's like flying, but better, as you're more in control. Also building your house is so easy like this, you don't even need any scaffolding.

The only danger you'll encounter underwater are the drowned, but they are laughably slow compared to you (it's the ones with a trident that are actually dangerous, but they're pretty managable, especially if you've got a shield). Pufferfish don't puff up around you so you're in no danger around them (and they make for cute pets). Guardians and Elder Guardians are kind of dangerous, but you'll manage if you know what you're doing (dodging behind multiple columns the builders were kind enough to provide).

Oh you wanted to go on land? No problem. Water bucket is your best friend, but I get it, waiting for your breath to restore can be pretty annoying. So as soon as you can you should look for turtles and get that sweet sweet turtle helmet, which 1. will give you 10 seconds free respiration and 2. you only need to be underwater for a split second for it to restore (yes - everything that usually gives players a water breathing effect, gives you an air breathing effect). So you go on land, have a free 10s, then your bubbles go down for like another 10s, then you pour the water bucket over yourself for half a second and you're good to go for another 20 seconds. Oh and if you enchant your turtle helmet with respiration III, the time period you can be outside of water is more like 1,5 minute. And again, you water bucket for a second and you have another 1,5 minute. Literally rinse and repeat.

Still unhappy? Want to visit your friends but you're tired of your best friend, the bucket? Make a ✨CONDUIT✨. It can be quite the hassle to acquire the materials for it (and I think of the shells [1.21.11. UPDATE: NOT ANYMORE. PRAISE THE NAUTILUS] - the Heart of the Sea is actually very easy to find), but it creates a huge area where you can breathe air indefinitely.

As for the Nether, okay, I agree that it isn't the best place for merlings, as the water bucket trick won't help you there. But water breathing potions will! Getting them can be a pain if you don't play with non-merlings willing to pay a visit to the Nether first and bring you that rod to power the alchemy table (you can offer to your friends that you'll pay for it with diamond blocks you've already managed to collect because digging underwater is, as I've mentioned, broken). But if you don't play with friends it's still possible, as you can find water breathing potions in treasure chests (and you can find one of these by finding a map in a shipwreck chest). And when you've finally acquired the alchemy table, well then congratulations, you're unstoppable, my friend. Just stack up on underwater breathing potions and you have multiple 8 minute periods to go and do whatever you like - even in the harshest conditions.

So basically:

1. Become a merling.

2. ???

3. Profit.

Bonus points: You can build huge colorful aquariums at multiple people's bases and be your friends' pet fish. A very fast, very rich pet fish.

I’ve been watching SMP Origins Mod and I’ve fallen in love with the mod itself!! I decided to make a Origin Sona so to speak and chose the Blazeborn Origin! I’m considering making a short story about her so that’ll be fun!

Here are some traits I came up with that I think will fit the Blazeborn category!

• They all have metal like patches on their skin that is hot to the touch (Mainly seen around their eyes, arms, and legs. Different variations are possible!)

• Blaze rods also float around them as well though not as fast as their full blooded brethren, more like lazily float around them.

• They are extremely hot blooded, especially around their patches of Blaze skin, so there is a likelihood of being burned by just touch.

• All Blazeborn’s can float! Though not very high like full blooded Blaze’s, but you will commonly see them floating a few inches off the ground.

• When angered to extreme measures they can literally set themselves on fire, though it takes a lot of rage and stress to do that.
