Uncover the origins of Endermen and explore the shattered realm they once called home.
The Astral Expanse reveals the mysterious origins of Endermen by expanding Minecraft's End dimension and adding a new realm to explore. Discover ancient Observer Outposts throughout the End, collect rare Voidinium ore, and ultimately activate a forgotten gateway to the Astral Realm - the shattered homeland of the beings who sacrificed their humanity to survive dimensional collapse. There is a story that is actually built into the mod broken down into four books found at the Observers Outposts in the End Midlands find them all to understand the story. If asked by enough people, I will make a spoiler specifically for the stories in the books to give context to the mod. This mod is meant to build on the vanilla Minecraft by trying to add to the story without straying too far from vanilla. I balanced things as best as I could to keep this aspect true. I have a lot in mind for this mod, as I am very excited, I am also a college student so time is a commodity. I am very welcome to help, message me. As for suggestions just leave them below, I will be working on a bug fixing system eventually. Given time this will be the cool mod you expect it to be.
This mod is in active development some feature may not be added yet. Properties & textures may change for the better. Some items exist without full functionality yet as well, but everything will have a purpose in time.
Your journey begins after defeating the Ender Dragon where you the dragons void infused heart and a map that will lead you to an outpost. Here you'll discover ancient records of the first fragments of the Endermen's tragic history. Each outpost contains a map to its sibling location, gradually the records will reveal the story of a civilization facing extinction.

I am currently focused on completing Phase 2 of my project, with Void Prowlers in active development alongside the fractal meter and Mini Endermen. Coming soon, you can expect the Fractal Meter soon in a smaller update to help finding Voidinium deposits just give the player and edge. Eventually we will implement a unique Endermen Trading System that exchanges specific ores for rare items most of which will only be obtainable by the trading system. Once these features are completed, development will shift to Phase 3's Ancient Gateway Shrine and portal mechanics, which will utilize the Dragon Egg to activate a pathway to the Astral Realm. Future phases will introduce the new dimension itself, featuring Astralite ores and everything that comes with it, ancient structures, possibly tameable Astral Dragons, and the Matriarch boss. If you are interested in more info check the spoiler below that has everything I am focusing on adding, don't be afraid to comment suggestions do no message me unless absolutely necessary.
