About Him - Herobrine
From Modrinthwe do a little trolling
ATTENTION: This is the description for version 3.0 and above. If you need to check the functionality of previous versions scroll down to the bottom and open the Old Description spoiler box.
Him is a horror + trolling modification that will enable Herobrine to non-destructively haunt your worlds and servers. He will watch you and your friends from afar and torment you up close as soon as you start playing. You must endure, collect the necessary resources, perform the banishment ritual, and free your world.
Or, you can use commands to scare other players manually (lmao)
Passive Haunting and Behavior
The mod adds passive haunting, where Herobrine spawns around you in a variety of ways, and commands to trigger specific apparitions manually. There are 4 apparition types that happen randomly every 3 minutes or so, and can also be triggered with commands:
- Watch: Herobrine wil spawn and watch you from afar for a while, then he will vanish.
- Scare: Herobrine will spawn right behind you and wait. Don't hit him though, that makes him angry.
- Jumpscare: Herobrine will appear in front of you, produce a cacophony of sound from the very depths of hell, and give you tunnel vision (the darkness effect).
- Spike: Spike, as in spike your cortisol levels, lulls you into a false sense of security. Herobrine will spawn a few blocks away and silently watch. You might even see him. Then he'll jump right up to your face and give you such a scare you'll get nauseated.
Chase Mode - Every so often, Herobrine will also go into a frenzy called chase mode, where apparitions will speed up considerably for a while.
Notch Apple - To banish Herobrine (or summon him again once banished), you need to craft a Notch Apple, a mythic object from old Minecraft, removed from the game at one point and now brought back as the only element strong enough to combat Herobrine. To banish Herobrine back to the void, you must burn a Notch Apple by throwing it into a netherrack fire. The apple will bring him forth and destroy his physical presence in your world, freeing you.
To craft a Notch Apple, you must place an apple at the center of the crafting table. At the corners, golden nuggets. At the sides of the apple, diamond blocks. Below the apple, a dragon head. And finally, above the apple, place a nether star. It's costly, you need to beat the game and then some to obtain just one. If you decide not to banish Herobrine though, you can also eat it. It grants one hour of Strength II, Regeneration II, Fire Resistance and Absorption.
Apparitions can also be triggered individually with commands, and other aspects of the mod can be customized and monitored.
Commands
/haunt - Enables/disables spawning of Herobrine in a world

/watch [player] - Herobrine will spawn close to the selected player and watch from afar
/scare [player] - Input a username and Herobrine will appear right behind them
/jumpscare [player] - Input a username and Herobrine will materialize in front of the player and scare them as described
/spike [player] - Herobrine will spawn farther away and then materialize in front of the target player and scare them, like a mini-jumpscare

Old Description and features (pre-3.0)
Him is a horror modification that will enable Herobrine to haunt your worlds and servers. Once you've invited his presence by summoning him with The Caller or via commands, he will watch from afar and torment his subjects up close.
This work in progress mod has two main functions, with more coming later down the line:
- Natural spawning of Herobrine around and close to players
- The power to scare specific players with Herobrine jumpscares via commands
