Refined Amethyst Crystal

• What it is: Single-stack tool item.
• Behavior: Right-click to dash 5 blocks forward in your look direction. Blends prior velocity with the dash so it feels natural during sprinting/falling. Up-look adds extra lift. 3-second cooldown. Plays ender-teleport sound.

Amethyst Lantern (formerly "Soul Harvester")

• Behavior:
  • Right-click in air: Harvests every mob in a 10-block radius of the same entity type as the first one captured. Stores full mob NBT (so when released, the mob keeps its name, HP, effects, custom data). Caps at 10 souls.
  • Players caught in the harvest zone: Applied Soulless status effect for 60 seconds (instead of being captured).
  • Mobs with > 150 HP: The lantern shatters (you're guaranteed to survive at ≥ 2 HP).
