The Abyss of Asura - Durga, the Asura of Fury

Description from original post (created 2012-06-19 20:57):

Durga is a character for a challenge named "The Abyss of Asura", on my YouTube show "Expresso Minecraft"

The story: In the buddisth mythology, the Asura was one of the many divine races that lived in the top of Mount Sumeru, the mountain world. However, Asuras are belicous and wardriven creatures, and in fear, they were cast away from the top and comdemned to live at the base of the Mount, engaging war after war against everything in order to claim back their place at the top of the world.

A long time passed and you wake up. All that you see is a vast field of nothing and dangerous creatures. No mountain to be seen. But you know only one thing: you are an Asura. Even if you are the last, you still have the task of conquering the top of the world, even if you have to make a new Mount Sumeru with your own hands...

The challenge: You have a huge flat map of bedrock at layer 1. Everything else that will show up will only depend of the mods you place in. You can choose up to three mods to give you power to fight, but have to place at least four mods to harm and endanger you. However, at least one of then have to give you some sort of block - the main objective of the mod is to survive long enough to build a structure to the very top of the map. (SPC's commands count a mod each. So you can activate only three commands to help you only). Cosmetic mods - ones that does not change gameplay at all - are free to use.

The Skin: For some reason, I wanted a deep abyss theme. So, Durga is portraited as a humanoid angler fish mixed with a beta fish. I wanted something muscular and terrifying.

I took BenjiToe's Diablo (http://www.planetminecraft.com/skin/diablo-348788/) as a muscular base and applied my idea. I had to use a mod to create transparency, so the effect of its terrifing mouth would take place. I drew and painted all the dark fins on his body.

The mods used for his challenge were:
* Kenshiro Mod, and the SPC's "keepitems" and "hunger infinite": this turned him into an never stopping killing machine. He can break a mountain and cripple an Enderman with his fists, and pack a demon away with his kicks. And he never stops or gets tired.
* Slimecraft, Demonic Mobs and Elemental Creepers: Variety, strenght and endless slimes to face Durga at the bottom of the abyss.

The mandala written by Durga - the nickname of his adventure, where each word represent a mod - is "The Relentless Fists of the Keeper at the Mystical Liquid Hell"
