The twelve eyes

You need twelve eyes to open the End, and each boss holds one. Eyes of Ender still lead you to the stronghold, but they won't fit the frame.

  1. Gilded Eye

    Worn by royalty, once.

    Held by Valkyrie Queen

  2. Radiant Eye

    Don't stare at it too long.

    Held by Sun Spirit

  3. Cold Eye

    It never thaws.

    Held by Night Lich

  4. Molten Eye

    Still too hot to hold. Somehow you manage.

    Held by Nether Gauntlet

  5. Cursed Eye

    Its last owner would not recommend it.

    Held by Decaying King

  6. Restless Eye

    It hasn't blinked in a very long time.

    Held by Frenzied Shade

  7. Sunken Eye

    Smells faintly of the sea.

    Held by Captain Cornelia

  8. Abyssal Eye

    From somewhere very deep and very dark.

    Held by Void Blossom

  9. Ashen Eye

    What's left when everything else burns.

    Held by Monarch of Chaos

  10. Iron Eye

    Heavier than it looks.

    Held by Returning Knight

  11. Forgotten Eye

    Nobody remembers whose it was.

    Held by Fallen Icon

  12. Ember Eye

    Warm, like the first light of morning.

    Held by Day Stalker and Night Prowler

The twelve eyes floating over an End portal frame in a stronghold

The rite

Gather all twelve and take them to a stronghold. Right-click a portal frame and they fly into place: the portal to the End is waiting.

Across the world

The twelve bosses are spread across the Overworld, the Nether and the Aether.

Two editions

Fabric and NeoForge are the same game, but each has bosses, lands and creatures the other doesn't. To see everything, you need to play both.

Questions

Which version of Minecraft does Fantasy MC Fabric use?

Minecraft: Java Edition 1.21.1, with the Fabric mod loader. Fantasy MC Fabric 1.0 is one of two editions of Fantasy MC; the other is Fantasy MC NeoForge. It doesn't run on Bedrock Edition, so not on consoles or phones.

What's the difference between Fantasy MC Fabric and Fantasy MC NeoForge?

They're the same game, and each has things the other doesn't: ten of its twelve bosses, three of its seven races, and some of its lands and creatures. The mods only Fabric has include Cinderscapes, Terrestria, Traverse, Critters and Companions, Aquamirae, Bosses of Mass Destruction and NiftyCarts, and the ones only NeoForge has include Even Better Nether, Atmospheric, Autumnity, Environmental, Mowzie's Mobs, L_Ender's Cataclysm and AstikorCarts Redux. To see everything, play both.

Which races can I play in Fantasy MC Fabric?

Seven: Human, Dwarf, Wood Elf, Ogre, High Elf, Halfling and Orc. High Elf, Halfling and Orc are only in the Fabric edition. Each race is better with one or two kinds of weapon. You choose when you first join, and an Orb of Origin, found in ancient city chests, lets you choose again.

Which bosses are in Fantasy MC Fabric?

Twelve: Valkyrie Queen, Sun Spirit, Night Lich, Nether Gauntlet, Decaying King, Frenzied Shade, Captain Cornelia, Void Blossom, Monarch of Chaos, Returning Knight, Fallen Icon and Day Stalker and Night Prowler. The Valkyrie Queen and the Sun Spirit come from the Aether and are in both editions; the other ten come from Bosses of Mass Destruction, Marium's Soulslike Weaponry and Aquamirae.

How do I get to the End in Fantasy MC?

Defeat twelve bosses. Each one holds a different eye, and once you have all twelve, take them to a stronghold and right-click an End portal frame: the eyes fly into place. Eyes of Ender still lead you to the stronghold, but they won't fit the frame.

Is Fantasy MC hard?

Your first days play like vanilla Minecraft. The challenge is the bosses, and an Ender Dragon that fights harder than vanilla's.

Does Fantasy MC Fabric include performance mods?

Yes. Sodium, Lithium, ModernFix and FerriteCore are built in, among others.

Can I play Fantasy MC Fabric with friends?

Yes. Rent a server from BisectHosting (code PIXELDREAM takes 25% off your first month), host the server pack yourself, or open your world to LAN: the pack includes e4mc, which gives you an address friends can join from anywhere.

What changed in Fantasy MC 1.0?

Version 1.0 rebuilds the pack from the ground up, around the vanilla game, and the End now opens with the eyes of twelve bosses.

Who makes Fantasy MC?
