📖 About:

This little guy is a helper for the miners among us. He will light up your mine wherever you go so you wont have to place torches every few seconds, also when you right-click him you get acces to one row of extra inventory (9 slots) to put your ores/stone into. Tame him by giving it iron ingots.

❗ This mod is not being updated, there can be some issues with the mob.
