Description:

The Verdant Mantis Merchant is a peaceful, insectoid trader that wanders the Overworld with graceful movements, resembling a tall, slender praying mantis with compound eyes and a chitinous exoskeleton. It is immune to rain and water and will not teleport away when wet; right-click to trade for nature-themed goods like Spider Eyes, Golden Apples, Moss Blocks, Spectral Arrows and other precision or potion-related items in exchange for Emeralds.

This mod adds the Vanishing Stalker Zombie, a silent and unsettling variant of the zombie that follows players from a distance with an eerie gaze. Unlike regular zombies, this stalker moves slowly, makes no ambient sounds, and won't burn in daylight, allowing it to pursue you at any time. However, if you look directly at it, the Stalker will vanish in a cloud of smoke with an ominous sound, either teleporting to a new location up to 32 blocks away or disappearing entirely, making it a truly unpredictable threat.
The Bold Jumping Spider is an adorable, tameable spider companion you calm with spider eyes; it loyally follows you, is passive toward players, can ride on your shoulder, remembers and defends against foes it has faced, and helps in combat by leaping at enemies and shooting slowing webs while avoiding villagers, iron golems, and other players unless provoked. Wild Bold Jumping Spiders now spawn in six permanent visual varieties — original, black-and-white, tan, white, a bright orange with cobalt-blue fangs, and a new cream-colored variant with dark green fangs and cute jumping-spider eyes — and they occasionally perform short exploratory hops while idle for extra charm.
The Explosive Leaping Slime is a dangerous explosive zombie that relentlessly hunts players, sprinting toward them and launching itself about 15 blocks into the air before crashing down in a devastating 5-block radius explosion that damages nearby creatures and breaks terrain. It repeats this leap-and-explode attack until it or the player is defeated, and it is completely silent at all times, producing no sounds when it spots, leaps, or lands.

The Obsidian Envoy is a peaceful, wandering merchant that looks like a tall, slender humanoid with a dark obsidian sheen and metallic highlights, roaming the Overworld without ever attacking players; it is unaffected by rain or water and will not teleport when looked at. Right-click to open its trade interface and exchange emeralds, diamonds, gold, and obsidian for powerful endgame items like Netherite Ingots, Elytras, Totems of Undying, and Nether Stars, with the trading screen remaining open reliably until you close it or the envoy is gone.
