The Mystical Siblings

I was exploring a cave.

It was a big cave, and I was running out of torches. I had some wood, but I hadn't bothered mining any coal yet. I looked around and spotted a couple of patches of coal ore, one a few blocks above the other. I went over to them and started mining ore.

As I mined, I noticed that the coal vein seemed to be curving around and going upward, almost in a corkscrew shape.

Sure enough, as I mined higher, the vein went around to the second patch of ore that I had seen. The spiral seemed to keep going, but I had plenty of coal by then, so I jumped out, crafted some torches, and kept going.

After a bit, I came to a cave opening. I could see a village through it, and tall, thin ore block structures in it.

I went to see what the strange structures were, but along the way I noticed a chest in a librarian's house, so I stopped to see what was in it.

There were three written books, along with various other book-related items.

One of the books, "An Exciting Mine" by Happyguy, I had seen before, but the others, "How to Play Goingol" by Meran and "The Legend of Herobrian" by Happyguy, were new to me.

I opened "How to Play Goingol:"


Goingol is a game that endermen seem to have a natural enjoyment of. The rules are generally something along the lines of this:

1. Any number of endermen may participate in a game of Goingol.

2. On the blink of a redstone torch, all the endermen teleport randomly.

3. If an enderman finds a player, they can win by dropping sand on the player's head.  Otherwise, they randomly  teleport again and repeat this process.

Despite its popularity, games of Goingol are rarely won.



I closed the book and opened "The Legend of Herobrian."


Hey guys! Guess what?? I heard about this guy called Herobrian! He's mystical! Cool, huh??


I put both the books back and went to see what the ore block structures were.

When I got near them, I saw an iron golem and a snow golem walking next to the structures.

I've talked to a skeleton in the past, so I thought I might as well try talking to the golems.

"Hi," I said. "What are these structures?"

The snow golem turned toward me, and a message appeared in chat:

"<Henrietta> They're mine and my cousin Henry's houses."

"Ah," I said. "Hey, do you either of you know anything about Herobrian?"

"You mean Herobrine?" asked the iron golem, who, according to the chat, was named Bob.

"I don't think so. The book I read definitely said 'Herobrian.'"

"I've never heard of Herobrian," said Henrietta, "but I know someone who might be able to take you to him."

"Who?"

"Her name is Dieamond, and she has voidcarts, which are basically minecarts that can travel to virtually anywhere through the Void. She said that the Void can be dangerous, though, so you should only use the voidcarts if you really want to find Herobrian."

"You'll also have to pay her," said Bob. "Four emeralds, right? Plus the diamond that you mine to summon her."

"Right," said Henrietta. "See, she has these spirals of coal hidden underground, and each one has a block of diamond ore at the bottom which you mine to summon her."

"Huh," I said. "I think I found one of those a little bit ago. Thanks for the info!"

I went and harvested some crops from the village, and sold them and some coal to the villagers to get four emeralds. Then I went back to the ore vein that had seemed to spiral. I mined downward and, sure enough, there was a block of diamond ore. I mined that, too.

Suddenly, all my torches dropped off the walls, and a figure appeared in front of me. I placed a torch, and the light revealed a dark gray creature with a hunched back and diamond shards as teeth, which looked almost like they had been hammered into the creature's bleeding gums.

"Sorry about the torches," said Dieamond. "Side effect of Void-travel. Do you have four emeralds and a diamond?"

"Yep." I dropped the gems to her. She came forward and picked me up, and then we were in the void. A few seconds later, we were in a glowstone-lit stone room. It was full of minecarts which looked like they were made of a combination of iron and bedrock.

"Pick a cart, any cart," said Dieamond. "Now, where was it you wanted to go?"

I got into the nearest voidcart. "Wherever Herobrian lives."

"OK," she said, and I was back in the void. I thought I saw a flash of cyan, but then I was shooting out of the side of a mountain. As soon as the minecart came to rest, it dissolved into nothingness.
There was a building in front of me, made out of prismarine and with blue torches on it. Around the building were giant flowers.

I walked around the building, looking for some sort of entrance. I couldn't find one. Then, as I was wondering whether I should try breaking in, a faceless player walked through the wall!

"Are you Herobrian?" I asked.

"Yes."

"And I'm his sister, Herobecky," said a yellow-eyed player as she walked out of the wall.

"Hi," I said. "I was wondering...what do you do?"

"Umm..." said Herobecky. "Well, I'm an enchanter, and 'Brian is a biomancer."

"Ah. Are you friends with Herobrine? Or do you work for Dr. Chibawk or Entity 303 or something?"

"No, we generally try to stay out of that sort of stuff," said Herobrian.

"Hey, I just noticed--you two look a lot like the skeletons and zombies that were running around on Halloween."

"Yeah. I made the faceless zombies, and 'Becky enchanted the skeletons."

"Huh. I assumed that they had something to do with Entity 303 or Dr. Chibawk."

Before they could reply, Dr. Chibawk himself materialized next to us!

"Hello, craftykids," he said. "Didn't anyone tell you that Void-travel is dangerous? And it's especially dangerous when the Ghost Warrior tells me that you're Void-traveling! Hahahahaha! Chi-BAWK!" He pulled out a thin obsidian frame with a portal in it, and a villager popped out. "This is Mr. Jones. I don't believe you've met. He offered his village as a place to start Chibawkia! It was fun destroying those weird golems' houses."

Weird golems' houses? I thought. I wonder if they were Henry and Henrietta's...

"Anyway," said Dr. Chibawk, "I haven't visited you in a while, so I thought I should make sure you weren't OK!" He pulled out a diamond sword, teleported next to me, and hit me with it. As soon as he did, lighting struck me, and I ran away from him. As I did, winged squid flew out of nowhere and attacked Dr. Chibawk and Mr. Jones, who had taken out a spawn egg and was spawning skeletons. Herobecky waved her arm, and she, Herobrian, and I turned invisible.

The skeletons could still tell where we were, but I ran around and avoided their arrows. Patches of a grass-like plant with white spots on it sprang up around Mr. Jones and Dr. Chibawk. The plants seemed to slow down Mr. Jones, but Dr. Chibawk just teleported out. I ran over to Mr. Jones and attacked him, but Dr. Chibawk teleported over, placed a thin portal around Mr. Jones, and then disappeared, leaving behind a colorful spotted egg. I ran toward it, hoping to destroy it before it could hatch, but before I could get there, it broke, and an evil block-eating monster came out! The monster sheared off the corner of Herobrian and Herobecky's house before diving into the ground and burrowing away.

I looked around to see if there were any skeletons left, but the squid must've killed them. The invisibility wore off--or maybe Herobecky stopped it. Anyway, we were visible again.

"Sorry about that," I said.

"Eh, it's OK," said Herobrian. "From what I've heard, my faceless zombies seem to be able to get through walls, and seeing as zombies have been attacking Chibawkia, he might've gotten mad at me anyway."

"Thanks for helping me! Hmm. I just realized that I don't have a way to get home..."

"One of my squid could fly you."

"OK," I said, and a squid came over, picked me up, and flew off.

Ghast-Squid

I found a flying squid the the Nether that shot fireballs at me.

Strange Monsters, Cakepeckers, and the Cultivator

When I went onto one of my survival worlds today, it was night. I got into my bed. The screen darkened, but then suddenly got light again to reveal a zombie standing next to me. A zombie with no face--just smooth green skin.

I killed it, and went back to bed. This time, there were no monsters standing next to me when I woke up. Strangely, though, it was still dark outside. I right-clicked the bed, but the chat informed me that "you can only sleep at night."

I went outside.

There were more faceless zombies, as well as some blackish-purple skeleton things with glowing yellow eyes.

I ran around, avoiding the strange monsters. After a little while, two figures came into view. One of them I recognized as the Mushroom Man, who was fighting the other, unfamiliar person who appeared to be made out of dirt, with rocks as facial features and plants as hair.

The dirt-person wasn't holding a weapon, but pumpkins were springing up, getting in the Mushroom Man's way, and cacti grew out of nowhere and hurt him.

"What's happening?" I asked.

"Well," said the Mushroom Man, "I was having some Halloween fun, but apparently the Cultivator didn't like it when I destroyed hir garden. Ze also also works for Herobrine, of course, so that could be part of it."

"Ah." I said. "In that case..." I ran at the Mushroom Man and attacked him with my sword, careful to avoid the Cultivator's cacti.

The Mushroom Man backed off, and pulled out a thin obsidian frame with a portal in the center. "Say hello to Jhounny!" he said, and a chicken shot out of the portal. It ran at us, jerking its head forward to deal damage, and I noticed that it had red eyes.

I hit Jhounny with my sword, and the Cultivator grew a giant, green-tinged potato in front of hirself, just as Jhounny pecked at hir. He started taking damage--the potato was poisonous, probably--and I slashed at him some more, killing him.

The Mushroom Man darted in, placing a gravestone where Jhounny had died. Then he backed off, and the Cultivator and I backed off too.

Suddenly, the grave exploded, spewing red-eyed chickens everywhere.

"Mrooo! Say hello to Jhounny and Jhounny and Jhounny and Jhounny and Jhounny and Jhounny and Jhounny and Jhounny..." said the Mushroom Man.

As the copies of Jhounny swarmed me and the Cultivator, a tree grew up from under us.
The red-eyed chickens milled around the base of the tree, and the Mushroom Man quickly started building a dirt staircase toward the top of the tree. The Jhounnys followed.

"Do you have anything that could stop him?" I asked the Cultivator. "Jhounny's duplicates will overrun us if they get up here."

"Just wait," ze said. "I think I've heard of these---they're called cakepeckers--and in just a second they should..."

The cakepeckers froze, then started being drawn toward each other, eventually combining into a single Jhounny. Then the cultivator waved hir arm, and a pumpkin sprang out of the dirt underneath Jhounny, catapulting him far away from us. The Mushroom Man took out the portal again--or maybe it was a different one--and placed it under himself. He disappeared, and the portal went out.

The Cultivator jumped over to the portal frame, destroyed it, and picked it up. "Hmm," ze said. "The Forger might be interested in this." It disappeared from hir hand.

"Cool," I said. "Well, it was nice meeting you. I'm going to go run around and see what else is going on. Bye!"

"OK. Bye!" said the Cultivator, and I jumped down and ran off.

Chibawkia

As I was going home from exploring, I found an obsidian wall. For some reason, there was a zombie and some skeletons wearing pumpkins, along with some creepers, standing next to it. The skeletons were holding splash potions of poison, and one of the zombies was placing ladders up the wall. I cautiously approached them.

A skeleton turned to face me, and a chat message appeared:

"<Lesto> Stay back. We'd rather not waste time attacking you, but, if necessary, we can overwhelm you."

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"We're attacking Chibawkia, of course," Lesto said.

"Why? And what's Chibawkia?"

"Dr. Chibawk started this city, but he only lets endermen and his other agents in. In fact, they have spawners from dungeons and farm skeletons and zombies, and they hunt creepers just so they can put on firework shows! So we're attacking them."

The zombie stopped placing ladders two blocks from the top of the wall and started building a dirt platform next to the top of the ladder. Monsters began climbing the ladder.

"Hey," I said. "Could I  borrow a pumpkin--which will hopefully stop the endermen from noticing me--and go inside? Maybe I could find something out that would be useful to you."

"I suppose so..." said Lesto. "But if you attack us, we will kill you." He dropped a pumpkin toward me, and I put it on. Lesto started climbing the ladder, and I followed.

When all the skeletons were on the platform, they suddenly, all at once, jumped up and threw their splash potions over the wall. The zombie placed water on top of it, and creepers started swimming over the wall. I followed them. As I went over the wall, I noticed that there was a shadow with no discernible source covering the city.

Endermen started appearing and attacking the monsters. Fortunately, the pumpkin seemed to work, and they left me alone.

I fell into the water on the other side of the wall, then quickly walked away, careful to avoid the creepers, which were now exploding.

As I walked through the houses, which seemed taller than normal--to accommodate the three block tall endermen, of course--I saw some familiar buildings: MooTech, Rana's Froggy Clothing Shop, and...well, this one was sort of familiar. It was a small sandstone pyramid, covered in vines, and surrounded by two block tall vine-covered redstone lamp structures. There was a jungle tree next to it, and it had banners on it saying "Viney Tacos."

The vines and lamps reminded me of Viney Food, but the pyramid and word "taco" made me think of a book I found several months ago:


My Friend TacoMan by Happyguy

My friend TacoMan lives in a desert temple! I met him when I was exploring!

Inside the temple, there was a lever with a sign by it that said "Don't flip this lever!"

I thought, "That's obviously a trick, so that people won't find the secret entrance to some diamonds or something!"

So I flipped it.

Some netherrack appeared, with a sign that said "Light the netherrack to complete the ritual."
A ritual! Cool!

So I lit the netherrack, and TacoMan appeared!

He ran toward me, swinging a sword, so I ran and hid, and started writing this.

But I'm sure he'll be my best friend when I explain that I wouldn't steal his diamonds!



I went into Viney Tacos.

The Vineman was there, along with a player who looked like Steve with a taco as a head-- TacoMan, probably.

"DARN!" said the Vineman. "WE'RE OUT OF POISONOUS POTATO TACOS! HANG ON, I'LL GO GET SOME MORE."

The Vineman ran out of the room.

"Craftykids," whispered TacoMan. "Entity 303 told me about you."

"Entity 303? Do you work for him?"

"Maybe..." said TacoMan.

"Spying, perhaps?" I asked.

Before TacoMan could answer, the Vineman came back.

"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? ATTACK HIM!"

Poisonous potatoes appeared everywhere, and TacoMan came at me with a sword.

I ran from the restaurant, and TacoMan ran after me. The endermen, seeming to notice me for the first time, attacked me too. I couldn't escape them all, and I died.

"An Exciting Mine"

When I was playing Minecraft, I found this book in a village:

An Exciting Mine by Happyguy

Today I went mining! I didn't find any diamonds, but I did find some other things! Here's what happened:

I was using TNT to mine a tunnel--it's much more fun that way--when I came to a cave. Maybe there would be diamonds in it! I walked in, but just then I heard an ominous hissing noise next to me. I sprinted off into the cave, but the creeper followed me and trapped me next to some lava! I quickly placed some TNT and, as the beast drew near, lit it with some flint and steel. The creeper started to swell, but the TNT exploded first, tossing the creeper into the lava!

I turned to leave, but heard more exploding sounds behind me. Looking back, I saw a monster made of lava, with TNT all over its body! No time to look for diamonds now! I ran away from this new monster, and it launched TNT at me. Its sizable form should've slowed it down in the comparatively small cave, but it just made more explosions and made the cave bigger!

As I was starting to get low on health, I saw an enderwoman and some sort of skinny black quadruped ahead of me.

The enderwoman turned her head and, seeing the creature, said, "Another one of Entity 303's creepers! Follow me. There's some water over this way!"

We ran through the cave until we came to pool of water, which I jumped into. The enderwoman and her pet stayed by the edge. Of course! Water hurts endermen!

The sound of exploding TNT got louder, and the monster came into view. When it was almost upon her, the enderwoman and her pet teleported away, and the lava being ran right into the water where I was hiding! It let out a roar as it hit the surface and was turned to stone.

I mined my way out and went to find the enderwoman.

* * *

"Hi!" I said when I found her. "I'm Happyguy! Thanks for helping me kill that thing!"

"Sure. I'm Meran, and this," she said, gesturing at her pet, "is Dolent." The creature, which had been hanging its head 'til now, looked up, and I saw that it had red eyes, but there was something strange about them, almost like they were far away or were giant eyes that had been shrunk down.

"Hi," I said, and then, to Meran, "What is he? I've never seen anything like that."

"He's a redhound. Dr. Chibawk made them to find redstone for him. Most of the redhounds have been turned into furthermen, but we still use a few."

"Oh, I think I've met Dr. Chibawk! He's that ender-chicken guy who eats at Viney Food, right?"

"Yep."

"I don't know about furthermen, though. What are they?"

"They're basically red-eyed endermen which find redstone. And cake."

"Cool," I said. "Well, I'd better get back to mining! Bye!"

"Bye," said Meran, and I ran off.

The Tree-Climbers

I was exploring a mega taiga, collecting moss stone. As I destroyed a boulder, I thought I saw something moving in a tree. I looked up, and saw a brown form behind some leaves. Deciding that it must be a cow that spawned up there or something, I went back to mining.

As I kept walking through the forest I saw more brown things out of the corners of my eyes. Surely there weren't that many cows in trees!

Suddenly, something hit me from behind. Turning around, I saw a spider-ish creature, with no head and legs all around its body. I hit it back, and it scurried up a tree.

I started running through the forest. More spider-things jumped out of trees and chased me.

A redstone contraption came into view. I tried to go away from it, but the creatures herded me into it. Smoke started coming through the floor, and then a firework rocket came out--taking me with it into the air! Then it exploded, displaying the message "Buy at MooTech!" and I fell to the ground and died.

If you see brown shapes in trees, get away from them as fast as you can.

Princess Repierk

Today, I was in my house, putting away ore that I'd just been mining. When I closed the chest and turned around, there was a completely black player standing in my doorway. In the chat, this message appeared:

"<Forger> Hi. I'm the Forger. Herobrine sent me with a message: Entity 303 is sending Princess Repierk to come kill you."

"Who's Princess Repierk?" I asked.

"He's a Nether princess, and shoots fire from his hands."

"'He?'"

"Yes," said the Forger. "Also, I was going to leave a book containing the message in a furnace, but an enderman took it, so you should also watch out for signs of Dr. Chibawk. I put some diamond ore in a furnace, too. Use it to make armor and a sword."

Then he left. I went out and found the fourteen diamond ore, smelted it, and made a diamond sword, chestplate, and boots.


The next (Minecraft) day, Repierk came and attacked me. Like the Forger said, he shot fire out of his hands. What the Forger didn't say was that it was green, and going in water didn't put it out.

The armor helped, but I was dying. As I was wondering whether I'd be able to kill Princess Repierk before he killed me, the Vineman came running up and attacked him!

Before the Vineman could kill him, Repierk drank a cyan-colored potion and disappeared. The Vineman then turned on me, but instead of attacking, he said "ENJOY" and disappeared, leaving behind poisonous potatoes, and fire on my house.

Username666 and Entity 303

Today, I created a new world. The spawn was by a desert biome. Strangely, it was filled with flaming netherrack towers and nether brick fences with Steve heads on top (which don't work correctly with Craftykids Pack in the snapshots....I should do something about that.)

I walked into the desert and destroyed one of the heads. It was named "week1," in red text.

I went further in.

Eventually, I came upon a nether brick building (I found a village along the way). It had cake on top and redstone torches on the walls, but it looked like some of them were missing. There was no door or opening, so I destroyed some blocks and went in. Suddenly, the room went dark, leaving only the light from the redstone torches that lined the walls. I turned around. Where I had destroyed blocks to get in, there was now solid wall.

A wither skeleton appeared in front of me. No, not a wither skeleton--this creature had horns, was smiling, and shaking like a provoked enderman.

"I notice you're not wearing froggy clothing," I said.

A message appeared in the chat:

<username666> Of course not!

"So you don't work for Dr. Chibawk?"

"No!! In fact, it was his furthermen that took the cake and redstone torches!"

"You don't have something to do with Herobrine, do you?"

"Not him, either," said username666. "I work for Entity 303!"

"Who's that?" I asked.

"A ghost from the Nether--the new Herobrine. Or, rather, the new Dr. Chibawk. But Herobrine is getting all the fame, and Dr. Chibawk is competition, so we're fighting both of them! Plus, Dr. Chibawk steals our cake. And redstone. And now, I will kill you!"

Username666 hit me with his sword. I lost several hearts of life. But then a pig appeared in between us. A pig with all-white eyes. Heropiggy! He pushed username666 back, and username666 tried to hit him, but it didn't do any damage. Heropiggy looked back at me and grunted. I turned around, broke back through the wall, and ran out.

Some TNT fell next to me and exploded. A fireball shot over my head. I looked behind me, and saw a hooded player with red eyes. It had flaming netherrack around it, which moved with it.

A chat message said:

<Entity 303> Herobrine's pig came to save you. Anyone who has something to do with Herobrine MUST DIE!!

More fireballs and TNT rained down on me. I died.


When I respawned, I went away from the desert to find a better place to live. Along the way, I met the Vineman.

"What are you doing here?" I asked. "Don't you have a restaurant to run?"

NOT RIGHT NOW. ENTITY 303 TOOK OVER THE NETHER VILLAGE AND DESTROYED VINEY FOOD, BECAUSE DR. CHIBAWK EATS THERE. I STILL HAVE POISONOUS POTATOES, THOUGH.

He started throwing poisonous potatoes at me, and I ran away, and eventually found a good place to live.

"My Friend TacoMan"

Not necessarily related to Dr. Chibawk, but I found this book in a desert temple:


My Friend TacoMan by Happyguy

My friend TacoMan lives in a desert temple! I met him when I was exploring!

Inside the temple, there was a lever with a sign by it that said "Don't flip this lever!"

I thought, "That's obviously a trick, so that people won't find the secret entrance to some diamonds or something!"

So I flipped it.

Some netherrack appeared, with a sign that said "Light the netherrack to complete the ritual."

A ritual! Cool!

So I lit the netherrack, and TacoMan appeared!

He ran toward me, swinging a sword, so I ran and hid, and started writing this.

But I'm sure he'll be my best friend when I explain that I wouldn't steal his diamonds!

Pizza Spleef

Minecade's Pizza Spleef #3 wasn't working, and everyone was fighting. Obviously Dr. Chibawk's fault.

Cyclemen

I was in my house today, when suddenly several green-eyed endermen teleported in. One of them dropped a book, and they proceeded to take everything in my house. The book, titled Earth Day! and written by Dr. Chibawk, said:

To celebrate Earth Day, I have sent my cyclemen to recycle your house.

As I finished reading, a cycleman grabbed the last block, and the rest of them killed me. When I respawned, they were gone.

More Eggs

Found some more eggs. Didn't collect them.



Evil Block-Eating Monster

I was exploring a cave today, and I found a colorful, spotted egg. I destroyed, took it back to my house, and placed it on my furnace.

I went mining again.

When I got back to my house, particles were coming out of the egg. Suddenly it broke, and an evil monster jumped out and ate a hole in my house!

I didn't get a screenshot of it, but from what I saw, it looked something like this:



A furtherman teleported into my house, dropped a written book, took my cake, and left.

The book was called Repair-O-Tron Ad, and was by Israphel. Inside, it said:

Is your construction broken? Have trouble with creepers, or evil block-eating monsters? Well, then, MooTech's Repair-O-Tron is for you! With the push of a button, your creations will be restored!

Get one now for only five emeralds!

And, one the last page, it said:

We are not responsible for any malfunctions such as, for example, giving all your diamonds to Dr. Chibawk.


So if you find multicolored eggs, don't take them home with you!

"Viney Food Review"

(This was originally posted on 2014-03-12)


Yesterday I found a strange book in a village's chest! It was called Viney Food Review, and it was by someone called Happyguy! Inside it said:

Hey guys!!! I found an awesome new restaurant! It's called Viney Food! They sell some unusual items, such as rotten flesh and poisonous potatoes, but their steak and cookies are excellent! And I met a chicken guy named Dr. Chibawk who seemed nice!

Furthermen and MooTech

(This was originally posted on 2014-03-08)


I haven't seen many signs of Dr Chibawk in a while, other than occasional monsters wearing froggy clothes. But recently, something happened that was related!


I was searching for animals to get food from, and I found a pig. I ran at it, swinging my word, and hit it--but nothing happened.

It turned around, and I saw that it had completely white eyes....it was some sort of Herobrine-pig!!!

But I know Herobrine, and he's actually a nice guy. So I said, "Oh! Sorry about that!"

Heropiggy grunted. He walked a little way, then turned and grunted at me.

"Should I follow you?" I asked.

Heropiggy nodded, then went toward a cave. I followed.

We went into the cave. It was dark, but Heropiggy's eyes made enough light for me to see by.

After walking for a while, we came across an iron door in an iron wall. Behind it was a room, full of red-eyed endermen, and lit by redstone torches. Some of the endermen were wearing froggy clothes.

"What are they?" I asked Heropiggy. "What are they doing?"

Heropiggy just grunted.

I pressed a button next to the door, and it swung open. I walked up to one of the strange endermen. "Hi," I said. "Who are you?"

The enderman looked at me. "I'm Sombre, a furtherman. What are you doing here?!"

I ignored the question. "Hey, I think I've heard of you! Someone said you were haunting them, and they saw you IRL!"

Sombre said, "Someone might've seen me in Minecraftia, but I've never heard of 'IRL.'"

"What are furthermen?" I asked.

"We're a new breed of endermen, created by Dr. Chibawk, made for finding redstone. And cake."

Dr. Chibawk. I should've known!

"What does he need redstone for?"

"It's this new shop, MooTech, at (2047, 71, -45). It's run by Israphel an- Hang on! You're craftykids! Dr. Chibawk told us about you! Guys, it craftykids! ATTACK!!!"

The furthermen rushed at me, mouths open, and I started to run....but they got me. I died. A furtherman stood above me, holding a cake. I clicked the respawn button.


I wanted to see what this MooTech thing was, so went to the coordinates Sombre had given me.

Sure enough, there was a building there. Strangely, it was made out of huge mushroom blocks.

I went in.

There were walls of item frames, with strange items that I'd never seen before. One had signs over it that said, "Anti-Cake-Stealer! 100% guaranteed not to steal your cakes! Only 3 emeralds! Also comes with a FREE meal from Viney Food!"

I turned a corner, and saw the Mushroom Man. He was wearing froggy clothes, too.

He stared at me. "Dad!" he said. "It's craftykids! Help me catch him!"

Israphel came running through a doorway.

As I tried to get away from them, I asked, "how

"r

"u

"his

"dad"

"Step-dad!" said Israphel.

"Oh," I said, as they killed me.


So you'd better watch your cakes! Don't let any furthermen get them! And don't buy an anti-cake-stealer, even if you get a free meal at Viney Food! (They don't sell very good food anyway.)

Rana's Froggy Clothing Shop

(This was originally posted on 2013-06-20)


Another encounter with Dr. Chibawk!


I was searching for a village to trade in, and I was walking through a swamp, when I found a building shaped like Rana's hat. I went into it. There was a "Froggy Outfit" being sold for 4 emeralds, and....Rana's ghost!

She said, "Welcome to Rana's Froggy Clothing Shop! Would you like to to buy some froggy clothes?"

"Umm.... Okay," I said. I dropped four emeralds (which I had brought to trade with villagers), and she dropped the froggy outfit.

"Why are you a ghost?" I asked.

"I was removed from Indev, but Dr. Chibawk brought me back as a ghost."

"Oh, no," I thought. "Dr. Chibawk...."

"Okay," I said. "Bye!" and I walked out. Suddenly, I heard a hissing noise, and smoke came out of the ground. I started run, and then, BOOM!, I was thrown forward by a blast of TNT. I kept running, but then Dr. Chibawk materialized in front of me! And he was wearing froggy clothes!

"Hello, craftykids. I hear that you have been talking with Herobrine, and not paying for potatoes. I WILL KILL YOU!!!"

I quit the world, and used MCEdit to get back to my house. Then I tried on my froggy clothes.

Viney Food

It's been a while since I've seen any signs of Dr. Chibawk. But something happened that may be related....

I was exploring. It was nighttime (I was on peaceful, so there weren't monsters). As the moon was getting lower in the sky, I found a village. It was a very unusual village, though. The houses were made out of obsidian, nether bricks, and soul sand.I walked through the village and came upon a building covered in vines, with two block tall redstone lamp structures outside it, and with a glowstone sign above it that said "Viney Food." I pressed a button to open one of the iron doors and went inside. It seemed to be some sort of restaurant. I looked around it. Then, when I turned around there was a vine-covered player standing there. A chat message appeared saying, "YOU ARE NEXT." Then the vineman disappeared, and my inventory was filled with poisonous potatoes. There were poisonous potatoes everywhere!!! I turned to run out, but there weren't any buttons on the inside, so I grabbed a redstone torch off the wall and placed in front of the door. After I had run a little ways, I looked back and the trees were burning, and I think I might have seen a chicken with purple eyes staring at me....

Mushroom Man!

I was just playing SSP, and I found three mooshrooms wandering around in a jungle. I thought there must be a mushroom biome somewhere close by, so I climbed a tall tree and looked around, but I didn't see a mushroom biome. Strange. I climbed down and looked to see what my coordinates were, and then went to my my house and returned with some wheat to make the mooshrooms follow me. I took then to my house and made an area surrounded by cobblestone walls to put the mooshrooms in. Then I bred two of them. A baby mooshroom appeared, and then, suddenly jumped up on its hind legs. Now it looked like a player with a mooshroom skin. It ran out the open fence gate.I tried to follow, but it was running faster than I could, and I eventually lost it.

I think that this is one of Dr. Chibawk's experiments. That's why there wasn't a mushroom biome where I found the mooshrooms!

It's Not Herobrine, It's Dr. Chibawk!

A few days ago, I created a new world. It was a plains biome, and I couldn't see any trees, so I went looking for some. But, as I was looking, I saw something that looked like the default player, but with completely white eyes. Herobrine!

I was about to exit and delete the world, but then I thought, "Has anyone ever tried talking to Herobrine? It used to not be possible, but now you can use the chat on single player."

I said to Herobrine, "Hi. Why do you keep destroying peoples' houses?"

"It's not me who does that!" said Herobrine. "I only destroy things when I'm mining. That's why players find 2x2 tunnels after seeing me."

"What about the sand pyramids in the ocean and the leafless trees?"

"I thought the pyramids were good decoration. The ocean is pretty boring, isn't it? And I only took the leaves off of a few trees, to use for building."

"Okay," I said. "But why do players keep finding their houses destroyed?"

"That," said Herobrine, "Is the doing of Dr. Chibawk. He's an evil chicken who's trying to take over the world!"

And then Herobrine ran off, and I kept searching for trees.


Then, recently, on the same world, I was coming back to my house and saw a chicken standing outside it. This didn't bother me, until I noticed that it had enderman particles swirling around it. It turned, looked at me, and disappeared with a teleporting noise. A second later, my house blew up.

So, if your house or other creations are destroyed, don't blame Herobrine! It was Dr. Chibawk who did it!
