The Wannabeastiary- The Journey Update

The Wannabeastiary is an addon mostly focused around new mobs, but I plan on adding to many different aspects of the game. Currently, this is an early version of the addon, so it is somewhat small aside from creature-related stuff, but i’ve got plans for things like new biomes, trees, crops, ores, armor, food, and more! This addon is based on the characters, lore, and species of my own fantasy worldbuilding project, Terra, as well as a few of my own personal headcanons for Minecraft lore I came up with a while ago, plus stuff I just thought would be cool to throw in. I love writing, worldbuilding, and my characters a lot, so I thought it would be super neat to make a lore-based addon, since I sadly don’t see a lot of those. I’ve also put a lot of thought into making sure everything has an actual use for survival gameplay without being too OP, so hopefully this addon can enhance your survival worlds immensely!

So, I noticed that the Reins, Duo-Saddle, and many other things don't exist in-game, is this intentional? Also, I did try to find the other video on your YouTube channel, but I could not find it for the third update.

Mi estimado saludo y bendiciones desde Colombia, el addon es bastante bueno y satisfactorio la verdad, pero me gustaría que hiciera lo siguiente si lo llega a aceptar
1) Que la cabra verde dropeara carne de cabra y cuerno
2) Que el halcón pueda dropear carne de su tipo y pluma de su tipo
3) Que el wyver aparezca un poquito mas de seguido y que la espada que se cratea dure mas
4) Que el raptis pueda soltar su pluma propia
5) Que los lavas pueda dropear los plumajes de su color para decoración en el casco o otra cosa
6) Que el caimán y el gavial puede dropar su propia carne y cuero
7) Que el tiburón pueda dropear su carne y diente para crartear y la ballena su carne dropear
8) Que puedas actualizarlo
"Ojo solo es una sugerencia"
