Ruined Portal

Ruined portals are naturally generated damaged nether portals, which spawn in both the Nether and the Overworld.

Generation
Ruined portals generate in all biomes in both the Nether and the Overworld. They can spawn underground, underwater, or exposed to the air. Natural terrain around ruined portals generates as netherrack.

Structure
Ruined portals generate incomplete portal frames composed of both obsidian and crying obsidian, despite the latter not being a valid portal material. Some frames generate flat on the ground, as if they toppled over.

Ruined portals generate with a chest, which contain various golden items, in addition to a few other things, like obsidian.

A ruined portal generated in the Overworld is surrounded with structures made of stone, stone bricks, and iron bars; in the Nether it is surrounded by blackstone variants and chains.

If a ruined portal generates underwater, it may create downward bubble columns with nearby magma blocks.

Currently there are 13 variants: 10 normal size portals and 3 giant portals in varying states of decay.

Ruined portals can be generated by the player by loading  or   with a structure block
