The Nether

THE NETHER

 The Nether exists in a completely different world from the normal world above. The terrain is dimly lit, full of lava streams flowing from the ceiling, sudden cliffs, and lava lakes, making it extremely dangerous to explore. The ceiling and the base of the Nether are made of bedrock. When re-entering the normal world, any distance covered in The Nether is multiplied by 8, effectively making The Nether a fast-travel zone that allows for greater distances to be covered in a short amount of time in the normal world. Water cannot be brought to the Nether due to the fact that all water placed will evaporate immediately due to the extreme heat and will instead turn into steam. If a Bed is placed at The Nether and is right-clicked on, it will explode with a lethal blast radius.

PORTAL TO NETHER

Walking through a portal will not teleport the player―in order to use them, the player has to stand still inside the purple haze. Due to recent updates animals are now able to enter the nether through the portal. Strangely hostile mobs do not enter and animals when in portal teleport instantaneously. 

Obsidian

OBSIDIAN

Obsidian is the strongest place-able block in Minecraft. It is only found near lava, and is created when water touches a lava source. To mine obsidian, a Diamond pickaxe must be used. TNT explosions will NOT destroy obsidian.

NETHER PORTAL

 Obsidian is also the only material that can make a Portal to The Nether, Then, the bottom obsidian blocks should be lit on fire with Flint and Steel.

Snow Golem

SNOW GOLEM

 Snow Golems are unique mobs that are created by players. When created, as they walk, they leave snow trails for the players to collect.

Behavior 

  Snow Golems throw snowballs at hostile mobs, provoking them. This gives them an almost suicidal nature, as the thrown snowballs do not do significant damage, except to Blazes and the Enderdragon. Snow Golems attract enemies, making them useful for luring enemies into traps. They are also capable of drawing enemies away from the player.

How to Build

  To create a Snow Golem, the player must vertically stack two Snow Blocks on the ground, then place a pumpkin on top of it. This does not require a crafting table.

Pumpkin

PUMPKIN

A Pumpkin is an uncommon block that appears most commonly in forest biomes, but can also appear in sandy and snow covered areas. Planted pumpkin seeds grow into a central stem that grows until it reaches its maximum size, at which point pumpkins will randomly spawn in vacant farmland next to the stem. When worn as a helmet, the player may look directly at Endermen with no consequences, making it useful for going outside at night. 

JACK-O-LANTERN

Pumpkins can be use to make Jack-O-Laterns, a decorative item that lights an area up. 

SNOW GOLEM

Snow Golems can be crafted by vertically stacking two snow blocks on the ground, then placing a pumpkin on top of it. Snow Golems defend the player from hostile mobs.
