<h1 class=title>Minecraft Showcase</h1>
20+
<article>
21+
<p>Welcome to the website of a person who played way too much Minecraft in middle school. I wouldn't do this again, so
22+
please put your health and schoolwork first before playing for hours at a time.</p>
23+
<p>However, I may as well put those wasted hours to good use, so I've compiled some information in several niches of Minecraft that
24+
some people may find useful or at least somewhat interesting.</p>

<h1 class="title">Modded SMP</h1>
20+
<p>This section is a work in progress and may never be finished, but it's not like there would be a lot of useful information. You're better off
21+
searching for YouTube videos on this topic.</p>
22+
<p>I planned to talk about my experience on Modded SMPs on this page, especially since I played solo when most people were playing in teams and
23+
some were even x-raying or using hacks. For most people, it would be a lot smarter to form a group of skilled players whom you can trust, but
24+
if you're anything like how I was in middle school, you either want to be the best on the server or have way too much time on your hands
25+
<span class=comment>(which would probably be better spent on something more productive than playing a block game)</span>.</p>
26+
<p>This was supposed to be my third article, but I figured I would write more about <a href=nyctocosm.html>The Nyctocosm</a> instead. Here's a
27+
<a href="nyctocosm.html#article3">link</a> to the article about more advanced concepts like Artifacts and Hypertraces.</p>

20+
<article>
21+
<p><a target=_blank href=https://www.flubberschnub.com/releases/the-nyctocosm>The Nyctocosm</a> is a
22+
<a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Tutorial:Installing_a_data_pack>datapack</a> that
23+
expands the Deep Dark by allowing the portal in the center to be activated, leading to a new dimension
24+
with custom biomes, weapons, and bosses. A new feature added in this datapack is the ability to cast
25+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Spell_Directory>spells</a>, which require
26+
various ingredients and perform different tasks.</p>
27+
<p>The <a target=_blank href="https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page">Nyctopedia</a> is a great reference for
28+
the datapack's features, but this page will condense the concept of spells into a single article.
29+
The article may also serve as a <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Quick_Start_Guide>quick-start guide</a>
30+
for new players looking to start their journey into the datapack.</p>

<h2>1. Preparation</h2>
44+
<article>
45+
<p>The <a target=_blank href="https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Seelic_Scythe">Seelic Scythe</a> is the figurative gateway
46+
into the Nyctocosm world. Crafting it requires the player to enter an
47+
<a target=_blank href="https://minecraft.wiki/w/Ancient_City">Ancient City</a> found in the
48+
<a target=_blank href="https://minecraft.wiki/w/Deep_Dark">Deep Dark</a>, which is commonly located
49+
under snowy mountains. Its recipe requires 3 <a href="https://minecraft.wiki/w/Echo_Shard">Echo Shards</a>
50+
(found occasionally in Ancient City chests) and 2 Sticks as shown:</p>
51+
<img src="https://static.wikitide.net/nyctocosmwiki/0/05/Scythe2.png" width=auto height=150>
52+
<p>Like all weapons in the datapack, the Seelic Scythe cannot be enchanted, but is unbreakable and comes with
53+
special abilities. One of them is a right-click ability that instantly teleports the player 6 blocks forward
54+
and damages entities in its trail. However, this deals some damage to the player as well.</p>
55+
<p>The scythe also harvests the soul of any mob it kills, which lingers for a few seconds and can be collected
56+
by standing close to the soul particles with an empty bottle to obtain a
57+
<a target=_blank href="https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Soul_Bottle">Soul Bottle</a>, which is stackable.
58+
This item is used in one method of casting spells, and for activating the <a href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Dais_of_Inculcation>Dias of Incultation</a> for the second.</p>
59+
<br><br>
60+
<p>This second method requires a bit more resources (primarily a Beacon or Nether Star from a
61+
<a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Wither>Wither</a>) but is more useful overall. The
62+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Planar_Coil>Planar Coil</a> also stores souls when held in the offhand slot
63+
and is acquired with 20 <a href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Seelic_Essence>Seelic Essence</a>
64+
(which costs 20 Soul Sand and 5 Blaze Rods) and 4 Golden Ingots.</p>
65+
<p>These materials can be traded in the Dias of Incultation (which is really just an invisible custom villager). Building
66+
it requires 4 Quartz Blocks, 4 Quartz Stairs, 4 <a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Cut_Copper_Slab>Waxed Cut Copper Slabs</a>, 1
67+
<a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Beacon#Crafting>Beacon</a>, 1 <a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Anvil#Crafting>Anvil</a>, and
68+
a <a href=#candle-ring>Lit Candle Ring</a> as seen below. To activate the Dias of Incultation, right-click just above the anvil with a Soul Bottle.</p>
69+
<img src="https://static.wikitide.net/nyctocosmwiki/thumb/4/4a/Dais_Of_Inculation.png/600px-Dais_Of_Inculation.png" width="auto" height="250">
70+
<p>After obtaining the Planar Coil, hold it in the offhand to accumulate souls harvested from the Seelic Scythe. There is no limit to the amount of souls that can be collected.</p>

<h2>2. Spell Planes</h2>
77+
<article>
78+
<p id="candle-ring">Spells require two ingredients: A <a target=_blank href="https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Spell_Plane">Spell Plane</a>
79+
and the core spell material. The first method of casting spells requires 25 lit candles arranged in a 7x7 circle like so:</p>
80+

82+
<figcaption>
83+
<p class="comment">Building schematic for a Lit Candle Ring.<br>
84+
Candles can be lit with flint and steel or a flaming arrow.<br>
85+
Oh, you need the <a target=_blank href="https://minecraft.wiki/w/Candle#Crafting">recipe</a> for a candle? Here it is.</p>
86+
</figcaption>
87+
</figure>
88+
<p>The player must right-click a Soul Bottle while inside the circle for the Spell Plane to appear.
89+
Note: the soul will be consumed on use, and the Spell Plane will disappear if the player leaves the circle.</p>
90+
<br><br>
91+
<p>The second spellcasting method involves the <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Planar_Coil>Planar Coil</a>.
92+
Holding it in the offhand and right-clicking with an empty hand while sneaking consumes a soul and creates a Spell Plane at the player's feet.
93+
Once again, leaving the circle will cause the plane to disappear.</p>

<h2>3. Casting Spells</h2>
99+
<article>
100+
<p>To cast a spell, simply drop the corresponding material while in the Spell Plane. The most important spells are
101+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Spell_Directory#Resonance>Resonance</a> (Echo Shard), which activates
102+
the Ancient City portal when aimed at it,
103+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Spell_Directory#Luminescence>Luminescence</a> (Glowstone), which grants
104+
immunity to the Blindness effect applied when in the Nyctocosm in low light levels, and
105+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Spell_Directory#Evanescence>Evanescence</a> (Eye of Ender), which allows
106+
the player to teleport to their spawn point and escape the dimension.</p>
107+
<p>A complete list of spells, their materials, and their effects are shown in the table below.</p>
108+
<p class="comment">Note: These numbers come from the wiki and have not been tested. Some, like duration, may not be accurate in-game
109+
(actual times are ~10% of the displayed time in seconds).</p>

<p id="article3">You thought we were done with spells, huh? That's only half of what The Nyctocosm has to offer in terms of spells.
117+
The next section will cover much more advanced topics, but these will require extensive exploration of the new dimension, so
118+
make sure you are familiar with spellcasting and the 3 core spells before you proceed.</p>
119+
<p>For the most part, the new dimension will be sparse and uneventful. Tents with lore books and dungeon-level loot are scattered
120+
in the <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Desert_of_Rime>Desert of Rime</a>.
121+
The <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Cimmerian_Gorge>Cimmerian Gorge</a> may contain a machine-like structure with
122+
a similar chest. Beware of <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Nightmare_Apparition>Nightmare Apparitions</a>,
123+
which frequent the <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Night_Wastes>Night Wastes</a> and spawn when the player has the
124+
Blindness effect, and <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Death_Walker>Death Walkers</a>, which are often found in the
125+
Cimmerian Gorge and sometimes appear behind the player.</p>
126+
<p>While the 3 custom bosses can be summoned here, the dimensional gloom may hide a rare and unassuming structure hiding
127+
treasure far below the surface...</p>

<h2>1. Crypts</h2>
134+
<article>
135+
<p>After entering the portal and exploring the various biomes of the Nyctocosm, a "Stonehenge-like structure" might be
136+
visible above ground in the Night Wastes.</p>
137+
<img src="https://static.wikitide.net/nyctocosmwiki/f/ff/Crypt_Surface.png" width="auto" height="250">
138+
<br><br>
139+
<p>Digging underground near the monument will lead to the <a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Crypt>Crypt</a>, a
140+
stronghold-like structure made of stone bricks.</p>
141+
<img src="https://static.wikitide.net/nyctocosmwiki/thumb/9/9e/Crypt1.png/600px-Crypt1.png" width="auto" height="250">
142+
<p>When entering the structure, say hi to Tony, the invulnerable cat who will appear and leave behind a lore book of its own. The Crypt consists of
143+
many rooms connected by winding tunnels, but chests with valuable loot can be found here. While the loot is
144+
very similar to Ancient City chests, with <a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Enchanted_Golden_Apple>Enchanted Golden Apples</a>,
145+
diamond leggings, and <a target=_blank href=https://minecraft.wiki/w/Swift_Sneak>Swift Sneak</a>, each box has a random custom artifact, with
146+
the "dream center" chest containing 3 guaranteed, powerful artifacts: The
147+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Artifact#Scroll_of_Dream/Nightmare/Resonance/Protection/etc.>Dream Scroll of Protection</a>, the
148+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Artifact#Feather_of_Levitation>Feather of Levitation</a>, and the
149+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Artifact#Tablet_of_Transposition>Tablet of Transposition.</a></p>
150+
</article>
151+
<br>
152+
<h2>2. Hypertraces</h2>
153+
<article>
154+
<p><a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Hypertrace>Hypertraces</a> make up a mysterious system stemming from
155+
a side effect of using spells. When dealing magic damage or casting a spell, the player has a 15% chance to create
156+
a Hypertrace, an orange floating halo that lingers for a few seconds before disappearing.</p>
157+
<img src="https://static.wikitide.net/nyctocosmwiki/0/02/Hypertrace.png">
158+
<p>To pick up a Hypertrace, right-click the halo or sneak + right-click to pick up all created Hypertraces. This adds to
159+
the player's "Hypertrace Charge", which cannot be seen but is used by some artifacts and has a maximum of 15
160+
(starts at 5, but the method of upgrading this number is unknown).</p>
161+
<p>Standing close to (within 6 blocks) or destroying Hypertraces (left-click, or sneak + left-click for all) also activates
162+
some artifacts' abilities. More information is shown in the next section.</p>
163+
</article>
164+
165+
<br>
166+
167+
<h2>3. Artifacts</h2>
168+
<article>
169+
<p>Found in Crypt chests, these custom utility items empower spellcasting or grant special effects. A complete list of
170+
<a target=_blank href=https://nyctocosm.miraheze.org/wiki/Artifact>Artifacts</a> and their conditions is shown below.</p>
