Low Block Change Request: Weirwood Scars

Request: Weirwood Scars

Request Type: General Addition

Try to describe all workarounds and associated issues that make it necessary to add this block in your eyes.
The block would just be a simple 6-sided birch wood block, but with 13 "bleeding" red scars on it, representing a canonical feature of Harrenhals weirwood. The 13 cuts in the wood cannot be faithfully represented by alternative methods, requiring the additions of this blocks, unique for the Harrenhal server build, just like others were before, like the Moon Door for example.

Types of evidence to support your request: Canon

Canonical Evidence
"Daemon Targaryen walked the cavernous halls of Harren's seat alone, with no companion but his dragon. Each night at dusk he slashed the heart tree in the godswood to mark the passing of another day. Thirteen marks can be seen upon that weirwood still; old wounds, deep and dark, yet the lords who have ruled Harrenhal since Daemon's day say they bleed afresh every spring."
- Fire and Blood, The Dying of The Dragons: Rhaenyra Triumphant, p. 499

Westeros is currently in summer at the time of the server IIRC, so would we take that to mean these 13 scars would be dry/not bleeding any sap? Could add a bit of residue though I guess.

I actually think we are set at the beginning of autumn, but not spring regardless yeah. So having the scars dry (but still redish, from the dried sap) would be the most appropriate, indeed.

Hey I made a thing



I swapped a weirwood face texture block, which depending on the size of the tree may need to be rotated, so the sides are orientated vertically.
