The Swamp

	Purple Heart Trees Swamps now have their own native type of tree called the Purple Heart. These trees are generally larger than a standard oak but smaller than a fancy oak. Purple Heart trees grow vines on their leaves and trunk. Purple Hearts feature a full Purple Colored Wood Set. (See in Block Sets)
	Sinking Mud Watch your step when in swamps, the mud near water may just be a new variant called Sinking Mud. Most entities that walk onto sinking mud will quickly find themselves sinking into its muddy embrace. If you're going to travel through the boggiest parts of the swamp, you should bring some Leather Boots or be prepared to meet the consequences.
	Firefly Bushes Firefly Bushes have been backported and expanded upon. These bushes can be found all over the swamps and during the night they will illuminate the sky with bright fireflies. Use a bottle on a Firefly bush and you can catch the Fireflies to be released wherever you want from the bottle!
	Belladonna The Belladonna is a new unique small flower, native to the swamp. This flower is poisonous and will poison any entity that comes into contact with it. Belladonnas can be crafted into purple dye.
	Swamp Reeds Swamp Reeds are a new type of aquatic foliage found in the shallow waters of swamps. They generate in dense groups and can be crafted into 2 Brown Dye.

Block Sets

	Dung Set A New Dung block set has been introduced with: Dung Blocks Packed Dung including Stairs, Slabs & Walls Mossy Bricks including Stairs, Slabs & Walls Cracked Bricks Chiseled Bricks Pillars
	Purple Heart Wood Set A purple colored wood called Purple Heart set has been introduced with: Logs Planks including Stairs & Slabs Fences & Fence Gates Signs & Hanging Signs Doors & Trapdoors Buttons & Pressure Plates Normal & Chest Boats

Mobs

	Impillagers Impillagers are a new trader class of mob. They live in a unique village, only found in swamp biomes. (See Structures) Impillagers have their own unique set of professions that are independent of those of the villagers. They are neutral in nature, however they actively fight hostile mobs & attack Villagers.
	Dung Golem Dung Golems are a new type of golem. They are crafted from a Dung Block and a Carved Pumpkin. Impillagers naturally spawn these golems to help them in combat. Dung Golems shoot Dung out of their arm canon to attack. As a result of being made from dung, these golems are permanently Smelly.

Impillager Professions

	Dung Collector The Impillagers aren't exactly the cleanest but they are certainly crafty, this one has been collecting the all the dung around the village and turning it into blocks! Dung Collectors use the Waste Basket as their job block, it automatically collects dung from nearby farm animals.
	Banker The Impillagers love to trade in gold, so much that they began to run out of gold to use! Banker Impillagers think it's a good idea to trade with outsiders to improve the flow of gold in the village. Just be careful though, like any Imp, Bankers are very crafty and some of the Gold Coins don't seem right recently... Bankers use the Vault as their job block, a small lockable storage container! A simple crouch-right-click and nobody can get to your stuff.
	Musician Some Impillagers really do love their music, spending all day jamming out on the dance floor and listening to their favourite tunes. These Imps are always wanting to find the next best track to add to their collection and will happily part with their coin for it. Musicians use the Jukebox as their job block.

Structures

	Swamp Ruins Swamps now have their own unique ruins for you to discover! Make sure to bring your Brush. Each Swamp Ruin has one Frog Mask, don't miss it as it will be your guide to the illusive and rare Frog Temple.
	Frog Temple Not Much is known about the history of the mighty Frog Temple, all we know is that current the residents certainly weren't the ones that built it. The Frog Temple has become the heart of the Impillager Village. Rumor is that the Impillagers didn't do a very good job of looting it, take a look around and you might find some interesting artifacts.
	Single Village House Impillagers find themselves vulnerable down on the ground, even in the relative safety of the swamp. As a result they built their houses in the trees surrounding the Frog Temple. We don't know what drives this behavior, maybe it's something to do with their past before coming to the swamps?
	Double Tree House The Impillagers like to connect their tree houses together if they are close enough. After all, why go down the the ground when you can simply use a bridge?
	Dung Collector's House The Dung Collector has made this little spot their home, it may look like a bush but the Dung Collector thought it was the perfect place for the their collection. It might smell a bit though.
	Musician's House This used to be some kind of statue but the Musician decided that there is nothing better than a community dance floor. You'll often find the Musician by the jukebox, picking out the next best track!
	Explosive Experts's House You should watch your step in this one, this small ruin was taken over by the self-proclaimed Explosives Expert to store their stuff. It won't explode. Probably.
