# Wither Star + Beacon
\nI don’t know, it just makes sense to me for the star to be some kind of core that gives the Wither it’s power. So I made this, replacing the “Nether Star” for a “Wither Star”.<\/p>\n

With the new star done, it made sense to change the only thing that it is used for: The Beacon.
\nSo I made a darker version and also changed its glass frame (it doesn’t change actual glass, only the beacon one)<\/p>\n
