Description
🔥 EMBER AND ICICLE ❄️
We've passed 10,000 total downloads across platforms! Thank you so much for checking out the mod and supporting the project.
I'm building Ember and Icicle as a boss-focused Action-RPG for Minecraft, with a strong emphasis on creature design, fluid animations, and learning boss patterns. If you enjoy bosses with personality, custom mechanics, and a dark fantasy atmosphere, you are in the right place.
Note on Difficulty: This mod is designed to offer extreme difficulty. Learning attack patterns, watching visual telegraphs, and preparing your gear are essential.
📌 Beta 0.2.3 - Act I: Overworld Incursions
Right now, the Fire and Ice dimensions are still in development, so all current content generates in the Overworld.
What's currently in the mod:
- 2 major bosses: The Fire Gargoyle and the Ice Sentinel
- 2 dungeons with puzzles, traps, and 6 unique enemies
- Gem socketing and companion upgrades (Oath Slabs)
- Custom boss and dungeon music composed for the mod
Coming next (Beta 3):
- New Overworld forest biome
- Subterranean rift structures
- First NPCs & Companions (Aria & Nyr)
- Questlines, Bestiary, and Lore GUIs
- Elemental status reactions & Boss Trophies
- Survival unlocking for the Wanderer's Armor and Wanderer's Edge (currently preview-only in the Creative menu)
Future updates:
- Fire Dimension & Ice Dimension
- More bosses, factions, and main story progression
⚙️ Mandatory Dependencies
For the mod to work, you MUST install:
- GeckoLib
- Curios API
- AttributeFix
🔥 The Emberbound Cathedral
In future updates, this structure will serve as the gateway to the Fire Dimension.
THE BOSS: Fire Gargoyle
A magma-born monstrosity that guards the heights.
- Aerial Combat: The Gargoyle alternates between flight patterns and ground combat.
- Visual Telegraphs: Pay close attention to particles! When you see the Red Flash, dodge or block immediately!
- Magma Beam: Its ultimate attack is a giant laser.
Boss Mechanics:
- Multiplayer Scaling: Health increases by 40% per additional player nearby.
-
Passive Defenses:
-
Anti-One-Shot: Damage taken is capped at 10% of its max health per hit.
-
Fiery Thorns: 30% chance to reflect damage if the attacker is on fire.
-
-
Combat Mechanics:
-
Smart Targeting: The Gargoyle dynamically switches to the closest or weakest player.
-
Ultimate Charge: Gains energy over time; charges faster when players are taking burn damage.
-
-
(100% - 50% HP): Uses basic Fireballs, Triple Bursts, and high-speed Dashes. Watch out for its Vortex, it will suck you in before a big explosion.
-
At 50% HP (Below 50% HP): The Gargoyle becomes more aggressive and gains access to additional attacks:
-
Magma Shield: Absorbs damage. If broken, it explodes, so stay back!
-
Dive Bomb: Slams the ground like a meteor for heavy AoE damage.
-
Environmental Hazards: Invokes Tornados and Meteor Rains.
-
-
ULTIMATE - Magma Beam: When fully charged, it fires a massive laser (64 blocks long).
Other mobs:
Ember Effigy: A living tank. She can block your attacks and reflect your own projectiles. Each time she blocks, she does more damage, so be careful. 
Flame Imp: Agile and erratic. Its goal is to harass you and burn your surroundings. 
Iron Roller: A rhythmic trap. Every few seconds, it releases a seismic shockwave. Learn the pattern: jump to dodge the wave! 
❄️ The Cryos Technomantic Vault
In future updates, this vault will serve as the gateway to the Ice Dimension.
To solve the entrance puzzle, you need to find these papers on the ground near the hatch area:
When you break them, they drop adventurer's notes and poems known as "Poetic Steles". These four items give you the clues needed to solve the puzzle. Be careful though, if you make a mistake, you'll likely end up frozen.
THE BOSS: Ice Sentinel
A mechanical guardian protecting the Cryos Vault.
Boss Mechanics:
- Multiplayer Scaling: Health increases by 40% per additional player nearby.
-
Passive Defenses:
-
Anti-One-Shot: Damage taken is capped at 10% of its max health per hit.
-
Shield Breaker: Almost all of its heavy attacks and stomps will instantly disable your shield.
-
-
The Cryo Shield Mechanic: Its attacks apply a freezing Cryo effect. If the Sentinel hits you while you are afflicted, it absorbs that energy to generate an Ice Shield for itself.
-
Combat Mechanics:
-
Dynamic Moveset: Up close, it uses heavy melee combos and hammer slams. If you run away, it will leap across the arena, throw spike bombs, or fire homing missiles.
-
Shockwaves: Its heavy jump-stomp creates an expanding ice wave across the ground.
-
Ice Beam: It locks onto a target and fires a sweeping laser that freezes anything in its path.
-
-
ULTIMATE - Absolute Blizzard: It gains energy over time during the fight. When fully charged, it blinds everyone in the arena, pulls players toward the center, and releases a big AoE explosion.
Other mobs:
Cryo Aerial Watcher: A flying support drone. It scans the area and alerts other enemies. 
Cryos Automaton: A fast and aggressive automaton. It sprints toward you for melee attacks and enters an "enraged" state when its health drops below 30%. 
Cryos Executioner: A heavy tank armed with an ice sword. If it hits you while you have the Cryo effect, it shatters the ice, dealing bonus damage based on your armor.
