This mod brings new themed Dungeons to Minecraft, new vanilla-like structures to add more adventure to your world. Each structure contains Vanilla Minecraft mobs, but each has hidden artifacts that have unique abilities.
All new Dungeons:
• Abandoned Cemetery: Structure found in plains, spawns Zombies and Skeletons, and home to the "Gravedigger's Shovel" artifact.
- Gravedigger's Shovel: On hit: Applies Slowness when attacking undead.
• Spider Nest: Structure found in several biomes, which spawns Spiders and Cave Spiders and houses the "Poisonous Fang" artifact.
- Poisonous Fang: On hit: Applies Poison, with a 25% chance of applying Poison 2.
• Desert Pyramid: Structure found in deserts, spawns Skeletons and Husks, as well as having some traps, and home to the "Pharaoh Scepter" artifact.
- Pharaoh Scepter: Activate: Removes Poison and Heals a large amount of health, but affects the user with Hunger 2.
