Hey, everybody! Today I have another suggestion: The Tameable Dragon Egg! This is not a new block but just gives a use to the already existing yet useless Dragon Egg. There have been lots of suggestions (I think) about taming the EnderDragon but I thought, "Why not tame the egg?" So here it is, folks, the tameable dragon egg!
How it works: Now I know that Dinnerbone was talking something about having a secret ultimate plan with Endermites and the Dragon Egg. So maybe this could have something to do with that. Basically, if you could get an Endermite to attack the egg, after about 5 seconds, a little baby Dragon head pops out; but just the head. After that, you must tame the baby dragon by feeding him Eye of enders. It can take between 1 and 10 eye of enders to tame the little guy. When he is tamed you can shift+right click him to make him stay, and do it again to make him move around freely. Go to the "Behavior" section to see what this dragon likes to do. And go to the "Use" section to see how the riding works.
Behavior: Like said in the above section, you can shift+right click the dragon to make him stay or move around. If he is not in "stay" mode then you can hold out eye of enders and he will follow you. You can also "feed" him eye of enders to heal him. If the egg/dragon is not in "stay" mode then he will move around quite like a horse. He will not teleport to the player when they get out of certain reach. And he will not follow the player unless they hold out eye of enders. However, leads can be used on the baby dragons. So you can use a lead to hold him in place. But that's pretty pointless since you can just make him stay. The better use for a lead would be to make him follow you without having to hold eye of enders. If you attack any mob except EnderMan or EnderMites, he will attack them. See the "How he does with mobs" section for his attacks.
How he does with mobs: If the Dragon ever found himself in a tricky situation. He has some attacks to help him. First of all, you should note that the dragon has 40 health. Now notice I say "health" not "hearts." This is because in Minecraft, health is measured in half hearts. So if the dragon has 40 health. He really only has 20 hearts. Now this is still double the amount of the player; well, he is the son of a dragon after all. Now for his attacks. The dragon has 2 attacks it can use against monsters. The "Flamethrower" and the "Charge". It really depends on what mob he's facing for which attack he will use. Flamethrower is a long range move similar to the EnderDragon's long range move. He shoots out (orange) fire from his mouth and it lasts about 2 seconds. It will deal a half heart for every 0.5 seconds. So....lemme do the math...(ironic because of my avatar)......okay, done, that's approx 2 hearts (or 4 health) of damage. Now for charge. Charge is his melee move, He basically hops toward the target at a speed of 2 m/s and when he hits the target, it gives the target 2 meters (blocks) of knockback and the dragon 1 meter of knockback. It does 3.5 hearts of damage. But it also deals 1 heart of damage to the dragon himself. If the dragon is facing a long range mob like the skeleton. He will most likely use Charge. But for melee mobs. He might use Flamethrower. NOTE: The Dragon will not fight Enderman nor Endermites.
Riding: You can ride your little egg. But because the Dragon's in an egg. Your going to need a new type of saddle, the Ender Saddle! The Crafting Recipe is like this: http://minecraftrecipedesigner.com/creations/101774.png All you have to do is right click your dragon with it and and boom he's equipped. After that you can right click you dragon with anything other than an eye of ender and ride him! The dragon has no inventory, pressing E (or your inventory button) will just bring up the player inventory. Once ridden the dragon can be controlled but is ridiculously slow. Moving at only 1 meter per 2 seconds. The reason for this is that he must hop to move because he is in an egg. The egg has a jump meter just like horses and when charged fully it can jump 4 blocks high. When in the air. It will glide just like a chicken down and take no fall damage. But simply just riding on the ground is not the full purpose of the dragon. Read on to the "Gliding" section to see more!'
Gliding: So, it'd be way too overpowered to just be able to fly. So instead, we must glide! When at a high altitude, or even just when jumping, the egg will glide slowly down like a chicken and take no fall damage. This also works when you are riding it. You can not jump when gliding to get higher altitude. So the purpose of this would be to have an epic view, or maybe to get down from a high place. Note that if you have another animal on a lead and you start gliding, the other animal would use the gliding effect as well, and if you leaded the egg while riding something else, it'd work somewhat as a parachute. So you could be riding a horse and lead up the egg and jump off a cliff and the egg would parachute you. Also, when the Egg jump, before it starts to glide, it can hover around for about 3 seconds before it starts gliding. If it is not being leaded and nobody to riding it, then it can hover for about 6 seconds before gliding. While hovering, it will move at about 2 m/s. (Hovering suggested by Coga19000)
Revival: Since you can only obtain the Egg once. If it dies, it will have a 100% chance of dropping a Dead Egg. The Dead Egg looks like a Dragon Egg but it is cracked. You can still place it down but if an Endermite attacks it it will not hatch again, you have to revive it. To revive it, you must surround the Dead Egg with Eye of Enders. It will then turn back into the Dragon Egg, and you can have an Endermite attack it and you can tame it again. This also opens the possibilty of people stealing the Baby Dragons away from you on servers. (Base Idea for Revival suggested by DinoShark32)
So that's really it! I hope you like it! Tell me what you think of some features I'm thinking of in the poll. Leave your thoughts below!
The Dragon Egg is a trophy, and should stay that way. Also, this would unbalance servers, as the person who gets the Egg has a pet that can (presumably) kill other players better than a dog can.
No support.
On servers I don't really think that it would be useful for battling when you think about how little damage it does to full diamond armor (which most players have). Also it would be really easy to kill. So the main use for it would most likely be raiding on servers with it's parachute ability. Even then your a slow target so people can shoot you more easily.

Nice one. Just a tiny suggestion to give it just some more usefulness; when jumping, it would be able to actually hover for around, I don' t know, 4 seconds before gliding down. While riding it or leading down with it, pressing Space would skip that part. When it follows you by itself, it generally will not do that -if he did, he would stay behind. However, if your fall is small enough, or if taking such action would protect it somehow from a type of hazard, it will do so nevertheless, in which case it can hover for up to 6-7 seconds (because of not having to carry your fat a** around :P)
Actually, another one; whi;e using the Flamethrower attack, it maybe should have a chance to spit a small fireball. It would have no explosive capabilities, and cause no damage by itself, but would set enemies on fire. (Maybe also have it ignite flammable materials? That could prove useful as a biological siege weapon.)
Apa tfrom those, you got toal support.
Thanks for your support! I don't really like your fireball suggestion because of it's dangerous capabilities and because the dragon is a baby. I do like the hovering idea though! I will add that!

I like this, but this would be REALLY unfair on servers. Whoever gets the egg gets a powerful pet.
Partial Support.
Considering how powerful most people are on servers, I don't think it'd be much of a problem to kill it. And it can't do much damage to your diamond armor. And thanks for the partial support!

That's another problem, killing the egg. I think if you kill it, it will drop the egg, and then it can be revived by getting Endermites to get on it, that way the egg isn't completely lost.

Hmm. That is true. I like the idea. But I don't like how you would just be able to basically have an endless egg. I'll think about some changes to hinder it.

The thing is, Endermites are typically rare to find, so it would be rather difficult to revive it.

Problem. Lots of people will want this on a server, just to show off. As soon as this is added most servers would immediately have only one player with this, meaning that the other players who want it will have to search through eleventy squintillion servers before finding one with an unclaimed egg. This would be OP simply because of it's supply/demand value.
Eggs have no thoughts or behaviors, they are literally an embryo in the egg... It has zero thoughts are feelings.. so you can not tame it, it would be still as it already is. So this really does not make sense...

Yeah, I agree. I think the dragon should have these cool features after it hatches.

Minecraft is not medieval-themed!!! As a matter of fact, it doesn't have a set time. And when and WHY did putting reponses in the quote, especially long ones, become a trend in the Suggestions? It's rather inconvenient, mainly since the OP has to gather your quote up manually. Avatar made by Endergirl!

I do not think it should be able to hatch either, there is nothing warming this egg, so it can not hatch, the embryo will die. Plus having it would be OP.

Chickens in minecraft don't keep their eggs warm either. It wouldn't necessarily be OP, since you get the egg after defeating the Ender Dragon, which is a very hard thing to do.

I don't know. It's just a cosmetic feature if they did. I was thinking it was kind of like the magical force inside.
It should have wings made of ender particles that sometimes fall to the ground, so you could be sneaking up on someone and they notice an ender particle falling from the sky, and they look up and see you. Balancing, and just cool.

Maybe there could be an animation when it gets killed, like it goes inside its shell, teleports like an egg would when you hit it, and turns into a block.
