About this Mod

Simple Dragons

Different dragon colors

This mod adds dragons to minecraft. They're not big and scary, but rather cute and helpful.

Eastern Eldwyrm

For now there is only one type of dragon — Eastern Eldwyrm. I used Asian dragons with deer horns and beards as a basis. You can paint them in any color and put your things in saddlebags.

But first things first. You need to find Eastern Temple, which is located in cherry grove.

Eastern Temple

There will be a chest, where you can find 3 new items:

  • Scaly Egg;
  • Katana;
  • Dragon saddle.

Loot in temple

You can also craft Katana and Dragon saddle:

Now you need to place this egg anywhere on the ground.

After 10-20 min a little dragon (with a custom model!) will hatch:

Then you need to wait for one day, and the dragon will grow up. You can tame and breed adult dragons using Cactus flowers.

Then you can equip a saddle on a dragon an put something into its inventory. You need to shift+rightclick on a saddled dragon with empty hand to open gui:

Dragon inventory

You can use katana to sit your dragon down or make him stand up:

Sitting dragon

By the way, kata has its own custom model. Its slightly stronger than iron sword but has greater attack speed.

Katana

To dye your dragon, just rightclick on it with any dye. When the dragon is customized and his saddlebag is filled with your equipment, you can just fly away:

  • to fly up, hold space up to 3 sec (the longer you hold, the higher will the dragon fly);
  • when flying, you can press space up to 5 more times to speed up. The dragon will fly in the direction of your gaze, but after a few seconds it will get tired and begin to descend. At this point, press the space bar again or, if you have already used acceleration 5 times, go down to the ground to rest and take off again.

Flying away

Lighting Dragon

It's another variation of Eldwyrm. Firstly, you need to find Weather Pearls in Eastern Temple and craft Weather Orb.

Orb Recipe

By the way, you can shoot Weather Pearls - they spawn lightnings when hit the ground! You can also use Weather Orb to change the weather:

Weather Orb GUI

Then you need to rightclick on your dragon with the orb:

Lightning dragon

This dragon cannot be dyed. It can strike lightnings when you press J while riding it.

Lightning strike

That's all for now. I hope you'll enjoy the mod.

There will be more dragon species in the nearest future!
