Nordic + Magic? The College of Sjinterhold

Fun fact (I know Sjin knows, this is for Chat): adding Glyphs to your Spellbook also increases your Max Mana.

How about Grimmrise for the colony's name, given the ominous woods biome just to the east where the sun rises? It also works with the future towers being built. P.S. If you need loads of gold, the Archwood Forest biome has it spawn in much higher frequency akin to Badlands.

🌲Terra magicae🌳= Land of magic in Latin, but you can also call it imperium magicae if it gets big enough

"Nordic French colony." Norman magic?

Sjin, you should look into the mod that huge zombie brute was from, Eidolon! It's not a very big mod, but it's all about worshipping the dark lord which would pair well with the eventual blood mage tower!

CITY NAME -----> Stargaze City!

my goodness my names are all over the place in the beginning of this colony! love that

Hi Sjin. I've been a fan since the First Sjin's Farm. I'm 21 now and in a bit of a trip down memory lane, I've checked out your channel again and since I loved your first Ars Magicka playthrough, I've decided to watch this series. It's really comfy and really cool to see how these Minecraft mods have evolved. Thank you for being a part of my childhood!

This is probably one of my most anticipated series to come out. Always hype to see it in my feed!

Wooo stormlight archive enjoyed wooooo

Prosperity shards end up being the limiting factor in Mystical Agriculture (I'm talking 'Infused' gear stage, way late on) so get them all & then make a 'magical' quarry for The End Islands and reap them all! Edit: Start your Inferium Essence farm NOW!! You need SO much - and Lily Pads of Fertility are your friend (lots and lots of them)

I just started getting back into playing modded Minecraft. I came across your videos and you gave me some inspiration and excitement. Love your videos!

the Advada Cadavra colleny a littel warning fore the dwarfs i wold say

Do a full colony play through too - Caledonia looks so good!

RIP to those first colonists already, haha! This is making me want to try a magic playthrough. Usually I follow the tech mods

Ulvir for the colony name 😁 In Viking, Ulv significates Wolf (I propose this name because you choosed the nordic style for your colonistes 😉😊

You should really make a projectile dig spell, it allows you to mine ore from farther away, and once you unlock the pickup gliph you can collect ore from really far away

FE is ForgeEnergy

You dont need pipes on the iron furnaces, just put the chest next to the sides you config. ❤ Love this series

Winterhold or College of Winterhold. Nordic Mages are definitely from Skyrim

I usually build a (crude) shelter for the colonists around the Town Hall block (where they gather at night if they don't have a home), it helps to keep them from being noticed by mobs at night. Sadly, it doesn't stop them from wandering out in the morning (unless you trapped them inside) and into any mobs still wandering around, especially if it's raining.

Sjin, I never thought of you as a notebook but if I had to have a notebook, now you come to mention it, I would prefer it to be Sjin-shaped. Thanks for helping me work that out.

Fantastic new series sjin thanks for this

This is such a cool series it inspired me to make another comic😂

Just a thought: you might as well get a basic self sustaining colony up and running. If you dress all the colonists in wizard robes, it will add to the whole magical aesthetic of your base.

huh wow how modular of a mod, wonder how many combinations there are. love the magic vibes so much

Love the series the more glyphs you learn the more mana you have an regen in ars

Stormlight archives reference 😮🎉🎉

I think you can make that furnace setup even more compact; if I remember rightly the furnaces will actually push/pull from each other and to/from chests as long as you have the configuration set up that way - I don't think you need any pipes at all (I may be confusing my furnace mods though)

Name Suggestion: Maison de Nouormandie (House of Normandy) The name of the French Vikings who conquered England.

Ivorime Tirion, which is Ivory Tower in Quenya (at least according to every internet translator I found). I figure Elves are Magical, and that town hall with the big white tower for a town hall... It might fit.

There is a high magic pack for minecolonies, might be worth looking into. Also you should build a house house for your builder and a guard tower.

I believe you can place the chest directly on the furnace and have the furnace pull/push to them

Classic Sjin: Almost endless aka distinctly limited.

man ima getting back into minecraft

Sjin, you should look into to getting a book worm for a storage setup with ars instead of using refine storage so you may stick with the magic theme

Should name it “Sjinguard” if it’s a Nordic them

By the way, hammers, the greg ones, are SUPER op where like, have an aluminum hammer that has an attack speed of 5 and does 9.5 damage which is great early game power

Galdrastrand means Enchantment Shore… new subbie, love the content

I kind of wish you had taken at least 1 of the guys from block of power, with you into this series, the banter between you guys was absolutely hilarious.

Hay sjin how about dark bright city to represent the light and dark sides of magic

Its almost like Conquest Reforged and the Create Mod in one. Interesting.

A1 series great vibes

Nordic magic is a thing but for some reason my mind went Celtic instead lol. French, Nordic and a lot of different magics it's just New Orleans.

With the Iron Furnaces you don't need any pipes. Early on use barrels for inputs and outputs and have the furnaces pull inputs and push directly into each other.

There's an amazing engineering/dungeon fiction called "Desmesne" I'm reading right now. So, I submit Lorian as the colony name!

The Mythtical Forest

All green huh? Do I smell a Druidz come back? The tower of SJINHEIM?

lorem ipsum for a town name sounds amazing it just means place holder lol

Nordic magical colony should be named Winterhold

You can also make Source Gems from Amethyst, and it's probably better since Amethyst can be farmed pretty easily even before getting into Mystical Agriculture, and the Amethyst Blocks are 1:1 with Source Gem Blocks, letting you directly convert those as well. Everyone forgets that the Vitalic Sourcelink also works off animal breeding. While a mob farm is the easiest option, you could also put one in an automated animal farm, get Source from breeding and killing pigs for food or something. Getting more Glyphs also improves your mana and mana regeneration, a bonus reason to make all of them. A mob farm can be a great way to accomplish things in several magic mods at once. Vitalic Sourcelink to get Source from their deaths, helping Ars Nouveau, Rosa Arcana, generating Mana from experience orbs, helping Botania, and either a Blood Magic Sacrificial Well, Evilcraft Spikes, or Mahou Tsukai Boundary of Life Drain to damage and kill mobs, earning Blood Magic Blood, Evilcraft Blood, or Mahou to help each respective mod there (you can sort of combine these, but it reduces the efficiency of each, as Blood Magic and Mahou Tsukai both trigger when they deal damage and Evilcraft triggers when it kills). This can somewhat be furthered using the mob drops as well, such as feeding Rotten Flesh to the Mycelial Sourcelink and Gourmaryllis for a bit extra Source and Mana and tossing any dropped gear into a chest with Durability Exchange for more Mahou. You... Really overcomplicated your furnace setup. Iron Furnaces don't require pipes for item transfer. You could just place your charcoal furnace right next to your stone furnace to feed the charcoal output into the stone fuel slot, with the stone output chest right beside that furnace and the cobblestone input above it. The Botany Pot could feed directly into the furnace as well, though that might actually be better piping into two drawers. One on top of the furnace collecting logs to cook into charcoal, one beside the furnace collecting sticks and saplings to fuel the charcoal production. Or, for an even better setup, since you're using pipes anyway, have the Botany Pot filling a drawer with logs, trash the sticks and saplings. The logs feed right into the charcoal furnace to be cooked. The charcoal is pushed into a drawer for collection, then you use a pipe to feed both back into the charcoal furnace as fuel and into the stone furnace for fuel. Then just get it started with one manual input of fuel into the charcoal furnace, it cooks some logs, replenishes its fuel. If Pipez round-robins or otherwise splits the charcoal as it takes it from the drawer, then both furnaces will slowly fill with charcoal. If not, then ideally it fills the charcoal furnace first, then starts filling the stone furnace. The only questionable bit is if the Botany Pot can keep up with the log production, but worst case scenario you can just make more until it can keep up. Then when you get into Botania, the charcoal can feed Endoflames to produce mana while Exoflames fuel the furnaces.

Seidrhelm. Seidr was an ancient form of Nordic magic.!

Make a big colony

You should try out the mod Mana & Artifice!

Sjin: "In this series we wont be focusing on minecolonies." Also Sjin in the second part of the series: "Maybe I should start a new Minecolonies playthrough." So relatable tbh :D

Colony: Pinehold. Can you make a Green Lantern Ring?

Sjinical Forest = as in Magical Forest

Have you thought about using the "Archwood Collective" pack for the colony? It is an Ars Nouveau based colony pack, it doesn't have all buildings but it has the basics.

“Touch dig” saw what you did there

What are you using to make some of the ores glow? Which pack is that?

Sjin, you might b able to cut down the amount of pipes used on that build, and just use one chest per item for the pots with a filter on the pipes. Cuts down on you needing to hit multiple.

Pretty sure vanila furnaces pull from the bottom (To work with hoppers in vanila). But Iron furnace is a upgrade anyways :P

Asgardsjin would be a cool name :)

Lol the patrons are french

Intro: magic he says with a wrench in his hand from technology

I like the idea of a wizard commanding a group of peasants like this

Following the Nordic and magical themes, a name for the colony could be Lokhalla, for Loki as God of magic?

Something about " The Village of Almura " Feels right.

I'm sad that you're not using the High Magic pack, since it's got in-built magical infrastructure in the colony buildings. From Agri-source links in the farms to source gem automation, it'd be neat to see how you prioritize them.

Mmmm, sauce gems.

Kinda like the sound of "New Dalaran" as a colony name

For town name I was thinking majin city: based of you being a mage and your name aswell ?? Idk 🤣thought it was simple and sounded great

Kinda wish that vein miner was locked behind something in atm9

Might be a weird question, but I'm playing this mod too, but my torch is not giving off light in offhand, any way to fix it?

Name suggestion: Terrakia (as terra is earht in latin and kia (xia) is a transliteration of magic in greek) also, what are you using for that awesome cinematic scenes? looks so cool!

Wandwood.

Winterhold!!

Sjin, another suggestion before setting up a mystical agriculture farm definitely set up a drigmy to farm for creeper, slimes, and skeletons so you can craft lily pads of fertility in bulk. Recomend looking at AllfredGG’s mystical agriculture farm as a reference to make a proper maxed out farm

Since you're a mage you should make your villagers Undead instead of Nordic. Feels like it makes more thematic sense.

How about; 'Wistra' for the name? It sounds magical and also like 'wisteria', appropriate since you're near a jacaranda biome with the beautiful purple trees

Sjisengard

U should think of making a Gold farm (Zombie Piglin Slaughterhouse) in the nether... U can get guides and tutorials for it on YT.

To avoid having to babysit the builder and supply all the materials, you can change the config to give the builder a "second inventory".

Yes, gold is totally underused, if you ignore the electrum tier in thermal...

Man removed the fr*nch how phenomenally based

I feel as if a name for the colony should be Valley Shadow Vale

Mages can wear armor, you'll just be a battle mage

This series is going to be very hard to watch with Sjin constantly saying "Harm Ball" lol

FE = Forge Energy, the built in energy units of the forge modloader

How did you make a world in creative then bring it to a survival world to create it legit using MineColonies Idk how you did it. I cant find a tut anywhere

I feel a little disappointed that he hasn’t taken the opportunity to Harry Potter name his spells

"Harmball" could instead be called "Sling-Sting"

Does Sjin script these episodes? I love the format, I just wonder if this is his natural speech or if this is him reading emphatically.

Odin’s dungeon

Name of the compound: Enchanted Tallwood Grove🌲

Wish my PC could handle this version of the mod pack. I have to do the no frill version or else I lag to death.

Sjin: "I've removed the French". Beyond based

So did Barkus not go through the portal too?

How about Enchandria for the city name?
