Tome Entry
Creepers have blown up my house for the last time! Sometimes, no amount of torches is enough! Taking the area effects of a Beacon, and adding in a bit of dimensional energy using some techniques I picked up from the End-dwellers, I have created a contraption that broadcasts a jamming signal that prevents new mob essence from coalescing.
Like a normal Beacon, the Interdictor requires some structural support, though a bit more involved than a Beacon, just something to broadcast the specialized field.
When assembled and given a redstone signal through a lever or torch on the structure's diamond block, the Interdictor will stop hostile mobs from spawning in a 32 block radial cube.
