The Witch Doctor's Broom
The Witch Doctor's Broom adds a swamp structure, a witch boss and a rideable flying broom that costs experience points to fly.
What it does
Swamp biomes generate a new structure called the Witch Doctor's Hut, hidden among murky water and twisted trees. Inside the hut waits a boss, the Witch Doctor, an ordinary witch who uses dark magic to defend the hut aggressively. Before engaging, players should prepare, since the fight is demanding.
Defeating the Witch Doctor drops his most prized possession, the Flying Broom. It is a rideable item that lets the player mount it and fly across the world, consuming experience points as fuel. Longer flights cost more experience, so players must keep leveling up to stay airborne. The mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it, and it is published for Forge 1.20.1 under All rights reserved.
Key features
Swamp structure
The Witch Doctor's Hut generates naturally in swamp biomes and is worth exploring for its secret.
Witch Doctor boss

Flying Broom
A rideable item that flies through the world, with flight time paid in experience points.
Experience risk and reward
Longer flights draw more experience, which adds a cost to exploration and makes leveling matter.
