(1:1) Make Magic in Minecraft - Create Dungeons & Dragons (Spells & Abilities)

With this 1 on 1 class you can jump in and immediately start designing any kind of spells and abilities you can think of. Everything we make can be used in single player and multiplayer worlds because we don't use any mods, just pure vanilla Minecraft.

Check out the class video to see my example D&D class, The Fire Sorcerer.

This class is pretty challenging, but we work together on my private Minecraft server, and I walk you through everything line of code. I also teach students how to think like a programmer, because data packs allow us to turn Minecraft code into a real programming language.

Some Example Student Spells:
- Snow-nado - A 10 foot tall tornado made of snow that homes in on the closest enemies. When it reaches them it pulls them in and freezes them into ice statues.

- Lightning Storm - When cast a dark cloud begins to grow 15 feet above your head. Once it reaches full size all enemies underneath of it begin to be struck by lightning once every 2 seconds.

- Blackhole - When summoned a small blackhole is created. As the spell runs it start sot grow bigger and bigger and all enemies in a growing radius are pulled into the center.

- Bow & Sword Transformation - Left click and your weapon turns into a sword. Right click and it turns into a bow.

There's no limit to what we can make, and every lesson is customized by the student as we make any spell, power, or ability that you want to have in Minecraft!

If you can imagine it, then I can teach you how to make it in Minecraft!

Learning Goals

Advanced Command Block Commands - Learn how to unlock the power of command blocks to be like a real coding language.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I've been teaching and developing curriculum for Minecraft classes for over 10 years. I've created several complete D&D adventures in Minecraft, and I'm currently working on a 10 hour D&D campaign with 15 different playable classes. It's coming out very well and I hope to make it available to play on OutSchool soon!

During the last 10 years I've created dozens of different kinds of Minecraft classes for tech camps and schools. I've also taught hundreds of students in my own Minecraft classes. The  most popular of which are: Minecraft Game Design, RPG Data Packs, Electrical Engineering, and Java Modding.
