Nether Curses

The Nether Curses module induces a much more challenging Nether environment when it is installed.

Overview
The Nether Curses module will only affect players when they are in the Nether. However, most effects can be avoided altogether if proper precautions are taken.

Base Effects
Mining Fatigue I and Weakness I are base effects applied to the players when they're in the Nether.

Upon taking damage, the players are also blinded temporarily.

It is highly not recommended to take on dungeons outside of Nether Fortresses when affected with these effects.

These effects can be cleared should a Nether Charm be crafted (see Crafting).

Pigfumes
Pigmen are aggressive by default, and will attack any nearby players. This can be mitigated, however, by crafting an item "Pigfume". Each Pigfume item shields the players from the Pigmen's natural aggressiveness for five minutes. Pigfume is consumed every five minutes when in the Nether. Crafting is in the CrafterFour (see Crafting).

Carrying porkchop, cooked or not, into the Nether will negate any effects imposed by the Pigfume, and will make Pigmen instantly aggressive.

Natural Blaze Spawns
Blaze will spawn naturally amongst pigmen. However, unlike blazes in Nether Fortresses, they do not drop blaze rods.

Crafting
Nether Charm:Pigfume (can be crafted with any single-block flower):
