ẞerry's Adventure.

So ẞerry entered the strange building. Inside it, he found an odd canon-looking machine. He entered it and switched it on.

Caboom! The whole world turned upside down. ẞerry was shot out of the Ꝼrʉȉțlāńd. He was now on a huge desk, with a huge being staring at him. ẞerry thought he must had beed a human; ẞerry had seen humans earlier in the kids' picture book.

"Hello my little friend, I'm Proffessor Messor", said the human, "Are you Ėmpreᵴᵴ Ḷḗṃṏṉ'ṡ emissary?"

This article is about items as they are in the inventory. For the entity that items and blocks turn into when dropped, see Item (entity).

Items are objects which only exist within the player's inventory and hands - i.e., they cannot be placed in the game world. Some items simply place blocks or entities into the game world when used. They are thus an item when in the inventory and a block when placed. Some examples of objects which exhibit these properties are item frames, which turn into an entity when placed, and beds, which turn into a block when placed. When equipped, items and blocks briefly display their names above the HUD.

Items use item IDs while blocks use block IDs.

Types

  • Food is found or crafted by the player and eaten to regain hunger points. Eggs from chickens have not yet been able to cook.
  • Potions are craftable drinkable (or throwable) items that confer specific effects. Producing them requires resources from The Nether. In order to create a splash potion, you need to add gunpowder to any normal potion. The change cannot be reversed.
  • Informative items, consisting of map, compass and clock, assist the player in the navigation of the landscape and the telling of time. Also book and quills and signs can be used for writing.
  • Weapons (swords, bows, arrows) are used to defend the player from hostile mobs roaming a map, or to kill passive mobs for food and materials.
  • Decorations are items that only have aesthetic uses.
