This mod's goal is to be a Herobrine mod thats true to the legend.
He's not destroying the world, he's not murdering you, its no half-assed boss fight....
He's just watching.... always....

Just Herobrine,
He can spawn semi rarely and just stands there and watches you for 2 minutes (CONFIGURABLE in 1.1+) or until you get close.
When you get within 25 blocks of him, he vanishes. (CONFIGURABLE in 1.1+)
Spawns above y60 for higher chances of seeing him (CONFIGURABLE in 1.1+)
There's also a config (1.1+) to only let Herobrine spawn in the Overworld. (On by default)
