Well, as it's a fruit, how about you can eat it and get something. Like maybe, you'll get night vision for a short period of time, or you'll glow, allowing you to see where ever you go, but the light would blind mobs (limited time obviously)?
Maybe, but I kinda feel like eating one would kill you, since it's basically juicy with lava.[/quote]
That got me thinking. Once you put it down maybe it would be permenant and if ou try to remove it it would turn into lava?

Have you forgotten water doesn't work in the Nether. That will set you back a lot. This is the 3 steps to success: Look it up, Search if it has already been posted, and if you pass you get to type your idea down! Ugh, the ida is interesting, but lacked info before posting. So now you have to block off lava and then get magmen (this is like flame arrows because people suggest them and didn't think to check the wiki because we already have them).

I am just a guy looking for good suggestions that are original, creative, and match the theme of Mine-craft. I have some mob ideas that I need help forming which is a community project.

This guy is like, the best mob suggester on the forums. He didn't forget that; there are colonies in the overworld.

what?
Translation please! I have no idea what this person is saying.
I love this idea, it is just go perfect , ( I would so befriend them!) it would add a social element to the game.
Quick question though, may you send my the file containing the "little gray man" that you use as a scale to compare the creatures size to the player? I am planing on trying to make my own creatures (for 3-d art practice) but idk how to scale them.
But could you make your own lava lake on the surface with buckets and Magmen will spawn? And then you could like help farm Lantern Plants with the Magmen!

errr what? seriously dont understand you.
Nether and large surface lava locations.
I am pretty sure that means on the overworld(or whatever its called) too.
I am pretty sure he did his research. Look at all those creatures in sig.

Yay a new mob suggestion from you. This one is really cool looking, like someone said lava is basically a glowing pitfall that you can just easily avoid (not in those exact words) this would be perfect for the random lava pools.
Unlike other people i really like the model, kinda reminds me of....some enemy from a fantasy game i played.
Great model, especially the one that's looking sideways. Perhaps they could spend much of their time splashing around in lava pools, so as to keep their temperature up.
I like the look of these things and think potential additions to the nether are always much needed.
Criticisms
[*:qcavhbq2]The texture doesn't really fit quite as well as it could with the present Lava texture. I think it would be better if it were tied in more.
[*:qcavhbq2]The whole lantern fruit ecology thing doesn't really feel like it lends as much to the game as it could. I kind of like the idea that it should revolve around the fact that they're made of lava rather than having it be relative to these lava-related fruit.
[*:qcavhbq2]The lava irrigation interaction seems tricky to make work right.
Suggestions
[*:qcavhbq2]Perhaps they could have a hostile relationship with the zombie pigmen? I think one or the other should be outright hostile to the player, and the player would have the option of interacting somehow with the neutral one.
[*:qcavhbq2]Perhaps something magmen would interact with that the player would provide would be surface materials that netherborn magmen wouldn't have normal access to, like stone or dirt. I'm thinking dirt is better, because you don't want them wrecking up your stone walls or walkways that you use to protect yourself from ghasts.
[*:qcavhbq2]Magmen should catch flammable materials they touch on fire, meaning any thing flammable you might have in the nether should be guarded against magmen.

I love seeing these suggestions, and here are two of my own.
1. If one or the other of magmen/pigmen are hostile, make it pigmen. They're the undead souls of those pigs you tormented. Just because, well, it seems more fitting.
2. Maybe the nether magmen could somehow be connected to the surface magmen (E.G. Surface magmen are miners) and if this is implemented, then if you made one of the connecting parts of the tribe hostile, then the other (Nether/Overworld) would be hostile also. Also, they would be in the same location (same location as if they were connected by a nether portal.) .
What if eating the lantern fruit caused you some damage, but made you invulnerable to lava for a short while? It would also take the fire off of you, if you are on fire when you eat it.
This would be great for the nether, as you could swim in the lava for easier travel! If you accidentally touch some lava while cave exploring and your low on food, it could save you a lot of resources you may have collected (this would be SO helpful if your lost, and really don't want to lose anything).
Furthermore, this idea would make the lantern fruit Hella valuable, and well worth the fighting or lava farming for the Magmen.
Another thing: when you eat it, it could cause you to emit light as well, good for when you need to get out of a hole and your out of lanterns.
