Soot

Soot is a walking furnace that releases little ember spirits. They chase nearby players and jump at them. As Soot builds heat, five flame markers fill above his head. When full, he charges a powerful explosion around himself, then cools down before fighting again.

Mob features

• Ember spirits with idle, walking and jumping animations, bright fire effects and a small impact burst.

• Five visible heat markers give players warning before Soot's explosion. Move away during the charge to avoid the blast.

• A large explosion with an expanding shockwave, fire, sparks and dust. Soot survives his own blast and does not destroy terrain.

• Ground-based movement, attack pauses and recovery after the explosion.

• Three metal variants. Choose one or use Mixed variants within a gang.

• Custom models and effects, with movement, attack and impact sounds.

In-game settings

Use the RuneFist Tome to place spawn areas and adjust population, respawn timing, variants, health, damage, movement speed, detection range, brightness and item drops.

The spawn radius controls where mobs appear; leash distance controls how far they can move. Give Soot and his ember spirits traversable ground and room to fight. They do not destroy or place blocks.

Source files

This product is supplied as protected runtime content for RuneFist Engine. Editable source files, including Blockbench (.bbmodel) models and behavior/configuration source files, are not included. Supported gameplay settings can be customized through RuneFist Engine in-game.

Optional Bedrock support

This download includes converted models, animations and effects for experimental Bedrock visuals. RuneFist Engine still runs all gameplay. Requires Engine 0.1.8, the free Bedrock Bridge 0.1.0 from the Engine listing, and Geyser-Spigot 2.11.3 build 1247 on the same Java server. No converter subscription is needed.

Inventory artwork, custom sound mapping, brightness and some procedural/death poses do not yet match Java. Separate-JVM proxy setups are not supported. Java-only servers can ignore the Bedrock folder. Original editable projects are not included; converted client assets are readable by clients.
