Old Idea I never posted on the new blog - The Potion of Warding
Brewing an Echo Shard with an Awkward Potion gives you a new unique potion - the Potion of Warding. Much like how no mobs would dare spawn in the Deep Dark and intrude on the warden's territory, the Warding effect stops all hostile mob spawning around the player for 20 minutes (or 40 if you use Redstone)
This affects all your regular mob spawning, but doesn't stop things like mob/trial spawners, Pillagers in Pillager Outposts, Guardians in Ocean Monuments, Raids, Phantoms (just sleep lol), and other such special cases. Not gonna make a lot of uber-dangerous structures a cakewalk, but it will finally mean you can build during the night without having to worry about torch-spamming your builds or fighting off hordes of mobs.
I also really like that it's the first (and only) Non-Renewable Potion. It's a very powerful effect, but if you run out of echo shards you'd better go find another Ancient City to get more!

So this is a bit of MC worldbuilding I've done for my MC inspired fantasy story, Souls of Black. And it's a small one but it's really silly to me so I'm gonna share it here:
All potions taste at least a little spicy, among whatever other taste they have due to their ingredients. They leave your tongue and throat burning a little as long as their active, and drinking milk counteracts that--and the potion effect.
Why milk negates it? Nobody knows lmao (though a character is set on some day figuring it out), but it does!
Oh, super interesting! I love this idea. I mean, a potion is full of energy, magic if you will. It'd make sense it'd leave your mouth tingling!
I went to scroll a little through SoB, it looks very interesting! I love what you're doing with the worldbuilding, thinking about details, even something like how time works, adds so much to a story. Keep doing your work, it's awesome!
what i think every minecraft potion tastes like and how they would make you feel
aka me yapping about my minecraft headcanons AGAINNNNN
PLZ READ IT i hope you guys see my vision
swiftness
its made with only sugar so i imagine iโd kinda taste like kool-aid, except itโs watery and the sugar taste is kinda weak
it would also make your body feel shaky and tense and your heartbeat way too fast, kinda like if you drank way too much energy drinks
slowness
itโd taste bad. i imagine iโd taste like youโre drinking something rottenโฆ (any potion made with spider eyes i imagine tasting bad btw)
and i imagine it would make your body feel numb and heavy, like if your limbs felt way too heavy for your body and you suddenly felt sleepy and tiredย
leaping
itโs made with rabbitโs foot so i imagine itโd taste a little funky. i imagine it would taste like if you drank just pure chicken broth (but instead of chicken itโs rabbit meat obviously)
i imagine iโd make you feel super light and energized, and youโd feel weirdly alert and nervousย
strength
itโs made with blaze powder, so i imagine the drink feeling thick to swallow, and the taste being spicy but with a burnt aftertaste
i imagine iโd make your limbs feel tense and quite uncomfortable, since all of sudden your body can handle heavy things and cause a lot of damage
healing
its made with glistening watermelon, so i imagine the potion being a sweet watermelon smoothie, but you also feel a metallic aftertaste, since thereโs some pieces of gold into it
healing is kinda obvious, i imagine your wounds healing really fast, like a small cut in your body would close in seconds instead of days
poison
i donโt know what poison accurately tastes like (thank god) so i would imagine kinda like if you chugged pure strong alcohol
itโs VERY bitter and it burns while it goes down your throat
basically it would taste awful HSBDUDHS
i also imagine it would cause wounds while it goes down on your body, like itโs burning you from the inside, leaving some pretty ugly purple wounds around your heart, throat and stomach
kinda obvious but it would hurt a lot to drink it :v
regeneration
for this one, i imagine it wouldnโt taste good
itโs made with ghast tears, so i imagine the taste being weirdly salty and burnt, and youโd also feel a small aftertaste of gunpowder
(off topic but i accidentally tasted a tiny bit of gunpowder one time, ITS SO AWFUL)
but at least since itโs regeneration, it would make your wounds heal fast and your body would feel a rush of energy and wellness
fire resistance
i imagine the taste would be strange but weirdly good
itโs made out of magma cream, coming from the magma slimes, so the taste would too be spicy and youโd feel a brief but strong burning sensation in your mouth at first
i also imagine the drink would be thick and itโd kinda feel like youโre drinking jelly
it would make your whole body feel weirdly numb, like all of your limbs fell asleep
water breathing
i had to look it up what does pufferfish taste like HEBDJSDBHS
apparently it tastes mildly sweet, so i imagine itโd taste like that plus a brief saltwater taste too
water breathing is obvious too, it makes you breath underwater duh BUT at the same time i imagine it would make you feel like youโre out of breath outside of water (like youโre briefly a fish HEHSHSDHS)
night vision
itโs made with golden carrots so similar to healing, i imagine itโd taste like a carrot juice with a metallic aftertaste
itโs obvious too, it makes you see better at night or at dark spaces, and i also imagine itโd make your eyes lighter and really dilated
invisibility
so this potion is a variety of the night vision except you add a fermented spider eye
so for invisibility i have to admit itโs kinda hard what iโd imagine, buuutttt i can imagine tasting the same as night vision, except you feel the potion more sour
invisibility is obvious too, it just makes you feelโฆ.invisible (WOW)
slow falling
honestly i have no idea what it would taste like HSHDSDHJSH
but judging by the color and by the ingredient phantom membrane, i can imagine the potion having a fishy taste
mostly because phantoms remind me a lot of stingrays, so the potion wouldnโt be the best taste ever :โv i imagine the potion would kinda smell like raw fish
And how itโd feel like, i imagine your body would suddenly feel super light, a little numb and kinda dizzying, since now everytime you take a step you body just falls very slowly
weakness
similar to what iโve mentioned before, i think the potion would taste weird too since i imagine most of the potions including spider eyes tasting bad
this one i imagine tasting it bitter and sour at the same time
And for what youโd feel like, obviously itโd make your body feel limp, numb and hard to move, like you suddenly forgot how to fight
harming
I think this one is a bit obvious but i imagine itโd taste drinking something thatโs not consumable
like drinking straight up bleach (i donโt know what it tastes but it must be bad HSHDSHSHD)
And obviously, it would hurt A LOT to drink it, i imagine iโd cause you heartaches and a tense muscle pain through your whole body
