Leather Armor

**Leather Armor** is the first set of armor in Assassin of Steve, worn by the Undead Farmers and Slaw. They cannot be purchased from any Shop, and are only found in chests or dropped from enemies in the Starter Mission.

## Trivia

* Only Slaw can actually drop a leather helmet naturally.
	+ This leather helmet is always dyed red.

* There are actually two separate sets of this base leather armor, the normal set dropped by Undead Farmers, and a set with Unbreaking X, found in loot chests exclusively.

* There is an improved set of Leather Armor dropped by the Army Scout, which has identical stats to Stone/Chain Armor.
Nether Portal

A **Nether Portal** is a structure built out of obsidian, acting as a portal from the Overworld to the Nether, or vice versa.

## Description

A nether portal can be constructed with a vertical rectangular frame of obsidian, and then lit with a flint and steel. While corners are not required to generate them, all appearances in Assassin of Steve contain them.

## Appearances in Assassin of Steve

The only occasion a Nether Portal is accessible in the Assassin of Steve trilogy is in Assassin of Steve 3's Mission 13. In the Nether section of The Fringe, there is a Nether Portal which leads to Hidden Mission 5, where the player meets BlazeandCave.

A Nether Portal also appears in the flashback at the end of Mission 12, where King Parcore and two Tribal Snouts are shown emerging in order to join Steve against the Enderman forces during the Ender War.
Notice of Mine Abandonment

**Notice of Mine Abandonment** is a Lore Book that can be found in Mission 9 in Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by the Minemistress.

## Contents

Dear personnel,

This is a notice to advertise the fact that this sector of the mine is becoming volcanically unstable and magma levels are rapidly rising, with the risk of engulfing the entire area.

I commend you on your ability to extract as much gold as possible so far but at this point the risks far outweigh the benefits and I'm afraid it would be best for you all to leave.

Or you could stay, trying to find the last bits of gold left, and die a horrible, fiery death.

Yours sincerely,

The Minemistress

## Trivia

* This lore book explains why many of the caverns in Mission 9 appear abandoned and filled with lava and magma. This area is also mentioned to have been closed off in the Safety Report.
Natural Regeneration

**Natural Regeneration** is a mechanic in Assassin of Steve maps where if you don't take damage for ten seconds you will be given a permanent Regeneration effect until you next take damage. This is intended to make it quick to regenerate to full health when out of combat, and can also reward players who are skilled at avoiding damage while in combat.

## Effects

If a player takes no damage for ten seconds, they will be given a permanent Regeneration effect until they next take damage.

* In Assassin of Steve, the exact effect amplifier used is Regeneration III, which regenerates 1.6 Health (or 0.8 hearts) per second.
* In Assassin of Steve 2, the Regeneration amplifier increases as you buy Health Boost upgrades in the Power Shop. When you buy Health Boost III it increases to Regeneration IV (3.2 Health per second), and it increases to Regeneration V (6.4 Health per second) with Health Boost V.
* In Assassin of Steve 3, the Regeneration amplifier increases as you complete missions and progress through the map. By default, from Missions 1-5 you get Regeneration III. From Missions 6-10 (and including Hidden Mission 2), you get Regeneration IV. From Missions 11-15 (and including Hidden Mission 4), you get Regeneration V.

## Trivia

* Eating Steak is still a good way of getting some burst regeneration, especially in the early game.
* Natural Regeneration was added due to the insane amount of max health players typically get throughout the maps and the fact that it would take ages to regenerate fully with just Steak alone.
* Natural Regeneration as a mechanic was first added in the 1.9 and 1.10 updates for Assassin of Steve 1 and 2, not existing prior to that since armor did not increase health back then.
Molten Edge

The **Molten Edge** is a sword wielded by the Hell Pigmen from Mission 10 of Assassin of Steve. This weapon can be obtained by looting loot chests found within the mission, bought at the Shop, or dropped from Hell Pigmen.

It is a sizeable upgrade over the Frostbiting Glaive and Blizzard Broadsword as this is the best sword in the map. It contains a Fire Aspect enchantment and has the highest DPS out of all weapons. There is no other weapon the succeeds this weapon.
Explanation for the extreme wind

**Explanation for the extreme wind** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Blustery Mountains in Mission 6 of Assassin of Steve 2.

It is written by Dr C. Mutation.

## Contents

The Blustery Mountains is quite possibly the only place in the world where wind updraft is so extreme it makes you jump higher. Probably something to do with the curvature of the mountains, but I've never managed to test for sure. Those Tree Zombies are merciless.

Another interesting fact is that Windwood's three Wind Bushes seem to be somehow able to change how extreme the wind is. No clue how this works, scientifically. I wish Windwood would be a bit more forthcoming, but it seems even he doesn't know how it works.

## Trivia

* This Lore Book is written by Dr Mutation, who is the next Pink Jewel holder that you will go after directly after Windwood.
* Another book written by him can be found in Aracold's cave.
Minemaster Mining, Inc.

**Minemaster Mining, Inc.** is a corporation founded by the Minemaster. Like the name implies, this company specifically focuses on mining for valuable ores and minerals.

## Information

Minemaster Mining, Inc. is a mining corporation that operates underground within the Frozen Wasteland. It specialises in mining diamonds, however based on the mineral stockpiles inside the Mining Base it turns up decent quantities of all other ores as well.

The corporation consists of the following enemies:

* Ice Miners are low-level miners tasked with excavating out large tunnels and caverns.
* Snowballers are skeletons that are often seen riding minecarts and Frostula Spiders and throwing snowballs at intruders. Their function within the corporation is unknown.
* Diamond Miners are higher-level miners tasked with excavating diamonds and other minerals.
* Tunnel Guardians are skeletons trained in combat and are tasked with defending the miners from threats.
* Senior Miners are the highest level miner in the ranks.
* The Minemaster is CEO of the corporation.

Other enemies seen related to the corporation but not part of its workforce include:

* Frostula Spiders infest some areas of the mines, however they appear to be somewhat tamed, as Snowballers are sometimes seen riding them.
* The Aracold spider is the Minemaster's pet, which is a giant mythical creature that lives in its cave.

## History

Minemaster Mining, Inc. was first founded by the Minemaster and his sister, the Minemistress after being kicked out to the Frozen Wasteland following the Great Pigman Revolution. In the companies' humble beginnings, the Minemaster would recruit monsters for the company, and the Minemistress would plan out where they would mine, being the smarter of the two.

Later on though, after the company started rising in popularity and much to the Minemaster's dismay, the Minsmistress left to go to the Disaster Desert where she started her own Mining Corporation to compete with her brother's. The Minemaster desperately wanted the Minemistress to come back, but she never did, showing a clear dislike for her brother.

Eventually, the company would fall from its former grace, with many safety hazards appearing and being disregarded. The company would later receive a Poor rating from the OHSWU.

## Appearances

### Assassin of Steve

During the first map, the player is lead into a battle with the Minemaster in an attempt to follow the Assassin. The Minemaster would set off an explosive trap that drops the player into a cavern with his pet Aracold spider. The player eventually slays Aracold, the spider only able to buy him a little bit of time to escape in a minecart to his mining base.

Eventually the player catches up, and he fights them, desperately digging away several times to escape the player's inexplicable strength. But each time, the player is able to trigger explosives to find where he burrowed to, and is eventually cornered and killed.

This likely results in the downfall of the company, due to the owner having passed away.

## Properties

* Ice Mines
* Aracold's Cave

* Minecart Tunnels

* Mining Base

Guide to Mythical Creatures

**Guide to Mythical Creatures** is a Lore Book that can be found in Pollus in Mission 8 of Assassin of Steve.

It is written by the Mayor of Pollus.

## Contents

Table of contents:

- Ender Dragon

- Red Dragon

- Elder Guardian

- Dolphin

- Wither

- Ghast Giant

- Aracold Spider

- Bedrock Serpent

- Triblue Plant

- Giant Pumpkin

- Windwood

- Cactantuar

*The rest of the pages seem to be frozen over...*

## Trivia

* Most of the entries in the guide are encountered throughout the Assassin of Steve trilogy, with some exceptions:
	+ The Red Dragon is a reference to Notch saying shortly after the Ender Dragon's addition that he would add more dragons one day, these ones being red.
	+ The Dolphin could be a reference to the fact that Dolphins were added to Minecraft in 1.13 when this map is set in 1.10.2, however the Music and Lore update when this Lore Book was added was released almost three months before dolphins were announced.
		- The official explanation by Cavinator1 is that it's a reference to a book he once read where dolphins were mythical creatures but dragons and other creatures normally considered mythical weren't. He has forgotten the title of the book however. ¯\\_(ツ)\_/¯
Rhouff

**Rhouff** is a small village located in the Tribal Snout Jungle.

## Information

Rhouff is situated in the middle of the Tribal Snout Jungle, nearby the Tribal Snout Village. It has a population of eight villagers (the Mayor of Rhouff and seven Rhouff Villagers, one of which is Roger) that is spread among six fairly sizable houses, and a large church. One of these houses appear to be a blacksmith, and a couple of others have a small pen out the back containing Cows or Pigs.

Rhouff is hidden under a giant canopy of dark oak trees (which is strange given that it's surrounded in every direction by jungle trees), and houses are even built into some of the trees, with trees going straight through the middle of some houses.

The Zombifier Lair is situated underground next to Rhouff. Its purpose prior to it being occupied by the Zombifier and his guards is unknown. However, the fact that an entrance to it is located right next to Rhouff hints that it may have once been utilised by the Rhouff Villagers.

## History

Not much is known about the village itself, besides the fact that there is an unspoken truce between the village and the Tribal Snout Village, where neither will bother each other.

## Trivia

* Rhouff is pronounced as "roof", which is hinted at by a sign written on front of the church.
* A few custom banners are placed on the church, which resemble a large tree. This banner was published online on Planet Minecraft as "Rhouff Banner".
Bone Shield

The **Bone Shield** is a shield wielded by Skeleton Corporals in the Skeleton Army in Assassin of Steve. It can be obtained rarely from defeating them, from loot chests throughout Missions 2 and 3 or purchased from the XP Shop at the end of Mission 2. The pattern on this shield is shaped like a white bone on a gray backdrop, and is identical to the banners littered around the Skeleton Army Barracks.

Shields are a necessity for combat, as it can block attacks, specifically arrows from ranged enemies. It is recommended to buy one as soon as possible, after getting a bow for long-range combat.
Distorted Spelunking

**Distorted Spelunking** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Distorted Caves in Mission 12 of Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by Unknown.

I've spelunked in many normal, grey caves before, but when I found this purple cave I couldn't resist entering.

I should've remembered that curiosity killed the cat. It already did. Or, at least I can't find him. I lost my cat Albert somewhere in these caves.

I'm lost myself. I keep going around in circles. Or finding I can't turn back.

This spelunking trip was a horrid idea.

I have no idea what is up with these caves. Everything's all... distorted. Even this book I'm writing in my hands is getting distorted. I turn a page, only to find the same page again!

This spelunking trip was a horrid idea.

I'll probably never manage to get out of here, and I don't think you will, either, whoever may be reading this.

I like pizza!

## Trivia

* Several pages in this lore book show up multiple times as a reference to the nature of the Distorted Caves.
Scout Dagger

The **Scout Dagger** is the sword wielded by Army Scouts in the Skeleton Army in Assassin of Steve. It can be obtained rarely from defeating this enemy or rarely obtained from the Mission 1 Reward Chest. This item **cannot** be bought from the XP Shop.

This item is quite rare since there are only about 5-9 Army Scouts that actually spawn. As it is a small upgrade from a Stone Sword, it is outclassed by the other sword in the Solider Equipment set, the Army Lance.
Drink Prices

**Drink Prices** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Saloon in Moostern in Mission 2 of Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by Bartender Bender.

## Contents

- QPO: 5 emeralds

- SloPo: 5 emeralds

- Nemract Whiskey: 7 emeralds

- Chugging Drink: 10 emeralds

## Trivia

* Nemract Whiskey is a drink on the Wynncraft server that can be purchased in a number of towns including the town Nemract, which the drink takes its name from.
Diary of a Gangun Miner

**Diary of a Gangun Miner** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Gangun Mines in Mission 3 of Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by Barmar Jinx.

## Contents

Please exsqueeze mesa handwriting if yousa can't understand it as mesa always had a speech impediment. Mesa work the mines in this mesa, and live in the nearby village of Gangun. Mesa called Barmar Jinx, and mesa the mayor's humble servant in these mines.

Speeking of the mayor, Herbert Twoten, he always taught mesa that a good trick to calm down is to count to ten!

Mesa thinks its amazing how well this works, especially when working in the mesa mines and can't find any gold!

## Trivia

* The author's name and their way of speaking is a reference to Jar Jar Binks from the *Star Wars* franchise. The fact that Jar Jar always says "mesa" instead of "I" or "me" then connects with the fact that Mission 3 is set in a mesa biome. It is also a similar reference to the town name Gangun, which is an anagram of "Gungan", Jar Jar's species.
* Herbert Twoten's trick of counting to ten is a reference to his last name sounding like the words "To ten". When he later becomes Count Twoten, the phrase is complete.
Pharaoh Burrow

Pharaoh Burrow is a mini-boss who appears in Mission 10 of Assassin of Steve 3. He is a wither skeleton with a pharaoh head and full yellow dyed leather armor. Pharaoh Burrow wields a ????????????.

## Biography

Not much is known about Pharaoh Burrow's past.

When Tomb Robbers .

.

Murder

## Characterisation

Pharaoh Burrow only has a single line in the map, so very little is known about his personality. This one line is also obfuscated, meaning it is impossible to see without cheating. Pharaoh Burrow is a vengeful

Tomb Robbers.

## Pharaoh Burrow

### Armor Enchants

???
???
???

### Abilities

Blindness Walls
Infinite Spider Minions

## Boss Fights

Pharaoh Burrow is [REDACTED].

The best and easiest way to beat Pharaoh Burrow is to charge in with a melee weapon. Don't worry about the Blindness Wall and simply run past it to Pharaoh Burrow before he can spawn too many minions. Don't die, because then Pharaoh Burrow will produce tons of spiders by the time you get back. If you die, then just keep charging in until you finally kill Pharaoh Burrow. You can use your bow to kill the spiders if required. Beware that sometimes the blindness wall can deflect your arrows, though.

## Quotes

"I shall escape from the Disaster Desert and proclaim myself a fair tyrant!" (obfuscated)

## Trivia

* Despite Pharaoh Unfare being a pun on "unfair", ironically it has been commonly accepted by the community that Pharaoh Burrow is more unfair.

* Due to an error in the redstone controlling Pharaoh Burrow's minions, there is no cap on the amount of minions Pharaoh Burrow can spawn at once, meaning he can produce an infinite amount of spiders.
A Tragedy!

**A Tragedy!** is a Lore Book that can be found at the entrance of Mt Jewel in Mission 1 of Assassin of Steve.

It is written by an Emere Miner.

## Contents

A tragedy has occurred!

Steve was killed by... I don't know. Some... thing.

We were working at an emerald-rich cavern near the very top of the mountain when he came. An Assassin who moved like a shadow. Next thing I knew, he'd killed Steve!

I ran like the wind. All the way down. I don't know how I made it out.

But this Assassin is dangerous.

He killed Steve, hero of the Ender War, just like that.

Now who will protect us from evil?

## Trivia

* This Lore Book was written by an eyewitness to Steve's assassination. It also gives a hint as to where it took place, implicitly telling the player that entering the emerald cave at the top of Mt Jewel will enable them to find the Assassin.
My Diary (Brawl)

**My Diary** is one of the four Lore Books that are diaries written by Zombie Knights. This one can be found in the first quadrant of the courtyard inside Glacial Castle in Mission 9 of Assassin of Steve.

## Biography

Mitch is a hardworking and dedicated farmer but who is also scared of the Undead Farmers.

## Trivia

* Mitch is the first character you meet in the Assassin of Steve *s*eries.
Bonus

**Bonus** is a unique mode exclusive to Assassin of Steve 3. It grants the player with bonus loot at the end of missions and also increases the chances of receiving Gems and Legendary Boxes from mob drops.

## Unlocking

Bonus can be turned on at the beginning of the map when given the opportunity to enter in a secret code, by using the code that is obtained by completing Assassin of Steve 2 while the player has a Bonus Chest Key.

## Effects

* The Reward Chest at the end of each mission (as well as at the beginning of Mission 1) will spawn as a double chest instead of a single chest. The new half draws from a "bonus" loot table which can contain equipment from the next mission.
* Mobs that can drop Gems have an extra roll of dropping that Gem, essentially doubling the drop rate of gems.
* All mobs from Missions 3 to 13 can drop a Legendary Box from the mission they are in with a chance of 0.75% / 0.5% / 0.33%.

## Trivia

* Bonus is similar to the effects of having a Bonus Chest Key in Assassin of Steve 2.

It is written by the Minemistress.

## Contents

Dearest brother,

(that was sarcasm)

You can go (insert swear word here) yourself. Just because you are my brother doesn't mean I have to spend my whole life with you. That's what significant others are for!

I will admit I met this nice zombie pigman who I've recruited to my gold mines. He single-handedly excavated a whole quarry!

I'm so in love! <3!!!

Regards,

The Minemistress

No XO's for you, ya jerk!

## Trivia

* There is a Lore Book that can be found in Assassin of Steve 1, Letter to my sister, written by the Minemaster and addressed to the Minemistress. This lore book is a direct reply to it.
Diamond Pick

The **Diamond Pick** is wielded by the Diamond Miner from Mission 6 of Assassin of Steve. This weapon can be obtained by looting loot chests found within the mission, bought at the Shop, or dropped from Diamond Miners.

The **Diamond Pick** has more damage than the Ice Pick from Mission 5. It also has a Knockback enchantment to help you knock away enemies. However, it loses the Bane of Arthropods enchantment that the Ice Pick has, as there are still a few spiders in the caverns of Mission 6.
Mt Jewel

**Mt Jewel** (pronounced **Mount Jewel**) is an emerald-rich mountain located near Emere, and the deathplace of Steve.

## Information

Mt Jewel is situated to the east of Emere Graveyard, at the end of a path that leads through a taiga forest. It has numerous caves and tunnels dug out with support beams. One cave at the very top is chock-full of emeralds, which leads to a cavern with some emeralds. This is the cavern where Steve was assassinated by the Assassin.

## Trivia

* According to the Lore Book A Tragedy!, an Emere Miner witnessed Steve's death.
Sand Monster (Species)

*For the boss monster found in Mission 1: The Sandpit, see Sand Monster*

The **Sand Monster** species is a rare species found in Mission 1 of Assassin of Steve 3: Endergeddon, and can also be seen in the Fringe. Their most recognizable feature is their lumpy head made out of sand, with black eyes. There are only two unique mobs that fall under this species, the Sand Monster and the Baby Sand Monster.

## Trivia

* The Baby Sand Monster was added in a later patch after a vote in the BlazeandCave discord server, along with the additional heavy weapons.
Glacier Zombie

**Glacier Zombies** are melee mobs appearing in the Glacier Mountain Ranges throughout Mission 8 and Mission 9. There are three variants, which each wear full Icicle Armor.

* The first variant wields a Ice Blade and Ice Spike Shield.

* The second variant wields an Axe of the Cold Night.

* The third variant wields nothing, but is a baby zombie instead of a regular one. Its name is also changed to "Baby Glacier Zombie".

## Strategy

The first and second variants are very slow and easy to take out if you keep your distance and don't get cornered by them. The third variant is slightly harder to defeat because of its speed, but you can still dispatch it easily with ranged attacks.

## Trivia

* The first Glacier Zombie variant also appears in the Fringe in Assassin of Steve 3. It also wields and can drop an Ice Blade and Ice Spike Shield.
Memoirs of a Tribal Snout

**Memoirs of a Tribal Snout** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Tribal Snout Village in Mission 3 of Assassin of Steve 2.

It is written by a Tribal Snout.

## Contents

We, the Tribal Snouts, came from the Nether many years ago and settled in this jungle. Like our hellish brothers, we do not like to fight and kill people, but we do when we must. Whenever anyone attacks us.

The closest Overworlder settlement to our village is known as Rhouff, inhabited by Villagers. We maintain a rather unspoken truce - never bother one another, and no bloodshed. That doesn't stop them thinking we're bloodthirsty, ruthless monsters.

That's not true at all! We're nice guys!

## Trivia

* There are two other Lore Books written by zombie pigmen beginning with the title 'Memoirs of a...' in Assassin of Steve 1, namely Memoirs of a Pigman General and Memoirs of a Glacial Baron.
Safety Report (Minemaster's Mines)

**Safety Report** is a Lore Book that can be found next to the entrance of the mining base in Mission 6 of Assassin of Steve.

It is written by OHSWU, which stands for Occupational Health and Safety Welfare Union.

## Contents

Report by the Occupational Health and Safety Welfare Union (OHSWU).

Organisation: Minemaster Mining, Inc.

OHSW rating: Poor

Report: Poor treatment of workers. Little or no safety measures in place to prevent cave-ins, people slipping up on ice, drowning in the underground river, being bitten by Frostula Spiders, being run over by a minecart, or being burnt by the lava in the forge.

Illegal mining methods employed, which consist of punching through bedrock in order to retrieve some enclosed diamond veins, and the intentionally constructed sets of minecart rails so they drop minecart occupants straight down into the void.

Please take some time to put in some safety measures to prevent further OHSW issues.

Regards, the OHSWU.

## Trivia

* The Occupational Health and Safety Welfare Union's headquarters are located in Tanivac, and can be seen in Mission 11 of Assassin of Steve 3.
* Other Safety Reports can be found throughout all three maps. There are two in Assassin of Steve 2, one in the Cropper's Farm and one in Dr Mutation's Labs. In the third map there is one in the Minemistress's Mines, which gets a better rating than the Minemaster's.
Mega Ghast

**Mega Ghast** is commonly inferred as the Assassin's pet Ghast. When you confront him towards the end of Mission 10 of Assassin of Steve, he will set off an explosive trap that drops you down into the Mega Ghast's chamber, after proclaiming "Now, it's time for you to die by my Mega Ghast!"

## Biography

It is not known how old the Mega Ghast is or when she became the Assassin's pet.

Based on information from Mythology of the Mega Ghast, the Mega Ghast used to be an ordinary ghast, before swallowing a Wither and becoming the Mega Ghast. It also apparently gained the power to spawn Withers after this.

Later on in Assassin of Steve, the Mega Ghast was slain by the players, after launching several fireballs at her, causing her to violently explode.

## Characterisation

The Mega Ghast is very powerful and explosive.

## Abilities

### Fireballs

The Mega Ghast can shoot explosive fireballs similar to an ordinary ghast, however they are much stronger.

### Summons

The Mega Ghast can summon a variety of different enemies to aid it including Creepers, Charged Creepers, Mini-Ghasts, Ghasts, and Withers.

## Quotes

* "Well, I don't need eyesight to shoot. There's only one place I can hit and that's you!"

* "Your arrows and puny fireballs hurt. But only bigger fireballs will kill me!"

* "Oh! Dying hurts!"

## Boss Fight

*Main article: Mission 10: Cry, Ghast, Cry!*

In the Mega Ghast boss fight, she can only be defeated by trading in items from the mobs found in the arena for Possessed Charges with the various villagers. Then, the player must insert the charges into the hoppers to advance the boss fight. There are four Possessed Charges in total that must be used, and each one summons more Ghasts around the arena, along with adding additional Mob Spawners. She also occasionally shoots Fireballs at certain spots of the arena.

Once all four Possessed Charges are used, the Mega Ghast boss fight ends with her violent explosion, killing her in the process.

## Trivia

* The Mega Ghast is the only structure-boss in the first Assassin of Steve map that is able to talk. It shares this property with the following from later maps: Giant Pumpkin, Lord Prismbeam, Windwood, the Triblue Plants, Sollus the Blaze God, Cactantuar and the Master.
* The Mega Ghast may have been partially inspired by the Skeletor boss from *Herobrine's Return*, as both bosses require you to shoot their eyes.
Anatomy of the Bedrock Serpent

**Anatomy of the Bedrock Serpent** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Minemistress's Mines in Mission 8 in Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by the Minemistress.

## Contents

The Bedrock Serpent is a fantastic beast that I'd much rather keep out of the hands of any idiotic wizards. Its unique biology means its skin is made of bedrock, unbreakable to most weaopns. It typically lives underground, normally below the bedrock layer.

Yes, there is more beneath the bedrock layer, I hear you asking. Only the bravest and best miners have ever been down there.

Anyway, the Bedrock Serpent pursues its prey slightly beneath a cave surface, its spikes digging out of the ground, in an effort to stun or wound its prey before consuming it.

You might be wondering, how did I catch such a fantastic beast? It turns out that beneath its bedrock skin is a rather fragile set of internal organs, meaning giving it a good explosive blast will give it a concussion, stunning it for a bit.

Blast it enough times, it will go away, so the art of capturing one is to blast it enough so it goes unconscious but not so much that it flees. But my catch was worth it, and now I possess an even better pet than my brother. In your face, Minemaster! >:P

## Trivia

* The comments that the Bedrock Serpent is a "fantastic beast" and that "I'd much rather keep out of the hands of any idiotic wizards" is likely a reference to the film *Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them.*
Memoirs of a Pigman General

**Memoirs of a Pigman General** is a Lore Book that can be found next to the second Garrison in Mission 3 of Assassin of Steve.

It is written by the Pigman General who manned the cannon in Mission 2. Check that - *pigmanned* - the cannon.

## Contents

I can't say I'm proud to be serving under Captain Yarma's Skeleton Army, especially as I'm a pigman! Formerly part of the Tribal Snouts... until they exiled all of us in the Great Pigman Revolution.

Captain Yarma is a rogue iron golem who I believe used to be the protector of Emere... until he went rogue, that is. Then he banded together all the skeletons in these mountain ranges into the Skeleton Army.

Captain Yarma is very powerful and merciless, killing anyone who calls him a robot. My three comrades and I came to be in the Skeleton Army during our exile. Captain Yarma saw how powerful we were in combat and offered us a spot as his four generals.

And that's the story of my life since the Revolution. I don't know what happened to all the other exiles... I suspect a fair few of them are still stranded in the Frozen Wasteland. Probably riding Ghasts for fun.

In the upcoming battle I get to man the cannon. Check that - *pigman* the cannon. Looking forward to the destruction I'm going to cause.

## Trivia

* This Lore Book reveals that Captain Yarma used to be the Iron Golem in charge of defending Emere. A few other Lore Books reference this such as Our town of Emere and Creation of the Iron Robots. However, the exact reason why he went rogue is only revealed in Rogue Cases, a Lore Book found in the Iron Golem Factory in Assassin of Steve 3.
* The title has a similar beat to Memoirs of a Glacial Baron.
* The exiles that are 'still stranded in the Frozen Wasteland' and 'riding Ghasts for fun' are likely Glacier Pigmen.
	+ According to Memoirs of a Glacial Baron, some of the other exiles ended up becoming Glacial Knights, and one of them was its author, Baron Narron.
How to keep a pet ghast

**How to keep a pet ghast** is a Lore Book that can be found in the Green End City in Mission 14 of Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by the Green Ender Captain.

## Contents

1) Name it so it doesn't disappear. Suggested names:

* Jellyfish
* Carwash
* Sneezle
* Ghast Cat
* Dr Ghastworth
* Mr Great Big Floating White Cube

2) Use a fishing rod or grappling hook to pull it along. A command block works wonders but... well, when was the last time you saw a command block?

3) Put it in an enclosed space. With a roof. Don't forget the roof. Build using ghast-proof blocks like netherrack. Iron bars are great too because you can see through them.

4) Sit back and enjoy the songs your new pet ghast sings for you.

## Trivia

* There is a mistake on page 3, because netherrack is actually not ghast-proof.
* The name 'Jellyfish' is likely an allusion to the fact that ghasts resemble jellyfishes in form. The advancement for killing a ghast in BlazeandCave's Advancements Pack also refers to them as a jellyfish.
* The name 'Carwash' is a reference to the fact that ghast's tentacles can resemble a carwash if you use some imagination.
* 'Sneezle' may refer to some beliefs that ghast fireballs are just ghasts sneezing. It also sounds like Sneasel, which is a pokemon, however this is likely a coincidence.
* 'Ghast Cat' is a reference to the fact that the ghast noises were recorded from C418's pet cat.
Aracold's Cave

**Aracold's Cave** is a cave in Assassin of Steve in which you fight the Minemaster's Aracold Spider.

## Information

The cave is large, with a flat snow-and-ice floor. Despite its large space, Aracold's body takes up much of the area. Eight large blue egg sacs are attached to the walls of the cavern. There is also a trapped villager that is stuck in some cobwebs at the back of the cave.

There is a chest against the left wall containing two Cold Eyes and Anatomy of the Aracold Spider.
Science of the Gravity Device

**Science of the Gravity Device** is a Lore Book that can be found on the Green End Ship in Mission 5 in Assassin of Steve 3.

It is written by an Obsidian Worker.

## Contents

I'm not sure why the Green Ender Captain insisted that a ship-wide gravity generator should get installed at the top of the ship.

Whlie it allows for seamless changing between normal and reverse gravity, from my point of view, this device is tactically useless unless we get boarded, and that'll never happen.

The Green Ender Captain still likes playing with it from time to time, and me and the rest of the Obsidian Workers have learnt to strap on suction boots to keep us on the floor for when his playtime is on.

The science is actually quite fascinating for such an annoying gadget. It works similarly to an abduction beam, except spread out all along the top of the ship to produce upwards gravity. But science is still a real pain in my butt.

## Trivia

* This Lore Book reveals why Obsidian Workers remain on the floor even when gravity is up.
Applications of the Pink Jewel

**Applications of the Pink Jewel** is a Lore Book that can be found inside Mutatron in Mission 8 of Assassin of Steve 2.

It is written by Dr C. Mutation.

## Contents

I acquired my Pink Jewel some years ago when King Parcore gave it to me. I don't know why he did it, aside from that he told me to protect it with my life. Luckily he never said I couldn't experiment on it to see if I could find any uses for it.

My research was not for nothing. I have discovered this Pink Jewel can function as an incredibly powerful and seemingly infinite renewable power source.

To celebrate my discovery I invited my whole staff to a movie night on the really big screen, powered by the Pink Jewel. It was while watching the movie, which was about a bunch of giant robots beating each other up, that I had an idea.

Build my own giant robot and use the Pink Jewel to power an endless arsenal of powerful weapons!

MWAHAHAHAWW!

I'm evil, I know I am!
One suit for four miners

**One suit for four miners** is a Lore Book that can be found in one of the Diamond Miners' quarters in the mining base in Mission 6 of Assassin of Steve.

It is written by a Diamond Miner.

## Contents

A little while ago the Police provided a full suit of Police Armor to the Minemaster so he could properly equip a security guard.

Don't ask me why he decided to do it, but the Minemaster split all four pieces across his four Senior Miners.

I guess he's never been the brightest diamond in the haul.

## Trivia

* This Lore Book explains why the four Senior Miners found in Mission 6 each have one different piece of Police Armor.
Minecart Tunnels

The **Minecart Tunnels** are a network of large tunnels with minecart tracks and wooden pathways and bridges running through them that connects the Minemaster's Mining Base with the Ice Mines.

## Information

The Minecart Tunnels are an old set of tunnels where all the ores were mined out ages ago, leaving large, gaping holes all throughout the tunnels. An underground river runs underneath the network, Ice and Diamond Miners using Frost Walkers to walk on them.

The only real purpose of the tunnels now are a thoroughfare to the Ice Mines, where the main ore mining operations are now being undertaken. Minecart tracks, wooden pathways, and bridges were set up in order to make transportation easier and faster.

In Mission 6, you have to find five TNT blocks within the minecart tunnels.

## Trivia

* On the minecart tracks where Snowballers travel there are often crashes or Snowballers going the wrong way.
* The Snowballers in the minecarts are invulnerable.
Bottle o' Enchanting

A **Bottle o' Enchanting**, or more commonly referred to as **XP Bottles**, is an item you can obtain sometimes from killing Uncommon or Rare mobs or frequently in loot chests. You can use them by right-clicking to throw them, which upon shattering will release some Experience Orbs that will grant you 3-11 Experience Points.

It is generally a good idea to store up XP Bottles while playing through a mission, rather than using them immediately, and use them at the Shop after spending all your levels so you can gain more levels overall. This can make it easier to stockpile on Potions or to buy more pieces of Equipment.

## See Also

* Bottle o' Enchanting on the Minecraft Wiki.
Letter to my sister

**Letter to my sister** is a Lore Book that can be found in the mining base in Mission 6 of Assassin of Steve.

It is written by the Minemaster.

## Contents

Dearest sister,

Ever since we were exiled from the Tribal Snouts during the Great Pigman Revolution, we have always stuck together. That's how we were able to set up this diamond mining corporation in the middle of the Frozen Wasteland.

The zombies and skeletons that we recruited to the cause listened to me while you planned out where we should mine.

Now, I don't know why you left, your last words to me being that you were going to go off to the Desert of Disaster and set up your own gold-mining corporation in direct competition with mine.

Please come back, sister. The miners are becoming so stupid without you.

Regards, the Minemaster

Your brother

## Trivia

* This letter is written to the Minemistress who, based on her appearance in Assassin of Steve 3, evidently succeeded on her last words to the Minemaster, and even wrote a reply to his letter.
Safety Report (The Cropper)

**Safety Report** is a Lore Book that can be found in Cropper Headquarters in Mission 4 of Assassin of Steve 2: The Tribal Snouts.

It is written by OHSWU, which stands for Occupational Health and Safety Welfare Union.

## Contents

Report by the Occupational Health and Safety Welfare Union (OHSWU).

Organisation: Cropper Crops, co.

OHSW rating: Good

Report: Good treatment of workers. Effective safety measures to ensure... safety. Some room for improvement: All the toilets are linked up to the water pipes, resulting in unsanitary water for the crops.

Additionally the complex seems to be located right over some caves inhabited by guardians. However, we found no breaches that would make this a threat.

Regards, the OHSWU

## Trivia

* The Occupational Health and Safety Welfare Union's headquarters are located in Tanivac, and can be seen in Mission 11 of Assassin of Steve 3.
* Other Safety Reports can be found throughout all three maps. There is one later on in this map in Dr Mutation's Labs. In the previous map there is one in the Minemaster's Mines, and one in the third map in the Minemistress's Mines.
	+ Out of these, the Cropper receives the highest OHSW rating, tying with the Minemistress.
Note

**Note** is a Lore Book that can be found in Mission 10 of Assassin of Steve 2.

It is written by the Assassin.

## Contents

Getting into the Snout Temple went off without a hitch. Nobody has any idea I'm here. Not even the guards. I move like a shadow.

I bet when <PLAYERNAMES> make it into the temple they'll go in swords blazing and let half the temple know they're here. Such impulsive behaviour.

I wonder how they got past that barrier maze from before. Even I wasn't sure what the path was. Just as well I could teleport past.

## Trivia

* **<SPOILERS>** According to Chipnone, the entire temple has spells on it that prevent anyone from teleporting in, which is why he and the player had to manually travel down into the temple and pass through all the areas as part of Mission 10, yet the Assassin is still able to 'teleport past' the barrier maze. It is possible that Chipnone was able to somewhat lift these spells so the Assassin could get through more easily. This very subtly hints at their connection and at Chipnone's true allegiance and betrayal later on.
