Overlord: Phobic - Official Unknophobia Page [Horror]

This mod adds the character "Phobic" from the "Unknophobia" modpack. Since the author hasn't developed lore for this character yet, let's proceed directly to the functionality description.

What the Character Does

Passive/Stalking Variant

Phobic spawns every 2-3 nights (configurable). When attempting to spawn, two outcomes are possible: either he successfully appears with a characteristic sound, or the spawn failure mechanic triggers.

Spawn Failure Mechanic activates with a 50% chance (configurable). In this case, Phobic doesn't appear but emits sounds similar to Cave Dweller's "cave noises". The system then repeats the spawn attempt until the character successfully appears.

After spawning, Phobic silently stalks the player, with his glowing symbols being the only warning. When he gets close enough (configurable), he transforms into the aggressive version.

Aggressive/Monster Variant

After transformation, two scenarios are possible: either Phobic begins pursuit and attack, or a jumpscare triggers. The jumpscare chance is 50% (configurable), after which the character disappears and soon attempts to spawn again.

If Phobic begins pursuit, he possesses the following abilities:

• Climb walls and pillars
• Destroy pillar platforms
• Swim through water and lava
• Open doors

This is the basic feature set that will be expanded in future updates along with new character variants.

Cave/Hybrid Variant

This version spawns every 1-3 nights (configurable). Visually, it combines features of the monster and passive variants - has a hook instead of a left hand, with the rest of the body resembling the passive version.

The hybrid flies slightly slower than the player but has an advantage - instantly destroys blocks with a 1-second cooldown. He has no spawn sound or warnings, the only audio cue is when he tunnels to your position. Instantly disappears upon contact with open sky.

Events

Bloody Sign

Appears every 2-3.5 days (configurable) in random surface locations. The sign reads "I always watch" in Japanese characters. The text is carved in blood, and the sign is slightly larger than normal.

Bed Bloody Sign

Has a 10% chance to appear next to the player when sleeping. Has the same appearance as the regular bloody sign.

Phobic's Warning

This event occurs when Phobic's spawn timer reaches less than 10000 ticks, meaning he will spawn the next night. Creepy, reversed, distorted, and noisy music plays while simultaneously applying Blindness and Darkness effects. The event lasts 38 seconds.
