The formidable presence of The John transcends the earthly realm, venturing into the ethereal expanse beyond the clouds known as the Aether. Known as The Ethereal John, lurking and observing from the shadowed recesses of this realm. In the depths where darkness prevails and light is absent, The Ethereal John may materialize, defying the notion that only benevolence exists in heavenly domains. Even within the realms of ethereal bliss, monsters can be still found in heaven.

This mod has no connection to the Aethers lore, or the lore of the John Mod Reborns. This is separate and has no connection. It's just for fun!

The Ethereal John

The Ethereal John is known to manifest solely in the most darkest recesses of the Aether. These ethereal depths exist below a light level of 3, concealed within only in caves. The Ethereal John inflicts 8 points of damage upon its adversaries, boasting an impressive 25 hearts (50 health). A perilous encounter with this entity carries a 50 percent chance of afflicting the victim with blindness for 3 seconds upon each attack.

Ethereal Gem & Ethereal Sword

Upon vanquishing the Ethereal John, there is a 50 percent chance of obtaining the coveted Ethereal Gem. The combination of two such gems, grants the creation of the illustrious Ethereal Sword. This remarkable blade has the "Unborn Tone" enchantment, which harmoniously resonates with the striking of each blow, emitting ethereal synth piano keys. However they synchronize with the rhythm of each blow when engaging the Ethereal John. Furthermore, the Ethereal Sword possesses the unique ability to afflict the Ethereal John with Weakness.
