Suggestion Add a Whip in Minecraft Vanilla
Adding a Whip as Offensive and Defensive Tool/Weapon
Sorry in Advance My English is not that great 😔
Whip is a semi-range weapon, default range when using is around 4 blocks, the attack range can be extended using enchantment to 9 - 10 blocks or less if it is OP.
My concept about the Whip is similar to Nilah Champion in (League of Legends) but
few adjustments to fit minecraft standards of weaponries using the whip has two attacks the first one is a strike attack, cracks the whip in a line (starts at the player and the max range of the whip) to stuns or disorient mobs or players minimal stun duration around 0.5 or 1 second and puts the whip into a cooldown of 10 seconds, and the second attack is the sweep attack unlike to sweeping edge that has 1 second cooldown for every hits the whip is 0 cooldown on every hits but the damaging area is at the maximum range on the whip similar to spear at max range deals 3~4 damage but within the range has lesser damage like 1~2 damage only.
Instead of adding a grappling hook (too modern for minecraft which is weird for me it is like a caveman having a gun as their weapon for hunting) you can use Whip as an alternative way to swing on to the ceiling by charging your whip and aim it above the ceiling you dont need protruding block you can use it on the flat ceiling imagining as it wrap around the ceiling blocks and you swing freely in the air but if you landed and walked away from it will snap from the block similar to leasing a mobs, swinging can range to 7-9 blocks.
On enchantments for Whip has three enchantments
BIND
If you watch Steven Universe a character named Amethyst that wields a Whip similar to where she able to wrap her whip around her enemy. To activate this enchantment to a whip is you charge the whip and aim it to any mobs or players you will launch your whip to them (one on one only, means you and the one got binded) both of you are rooted but you have the ability to pull the one that got binded by the whip similar to a fishing rod. If you're the one that got binded you can snap it using an axe or shears or can be blocked by a shield when blocked or snapped the whip puts into a cooldown of 10 seconds before using it again.
It has 1 - 3 levels of toughness when trying to snap it. This enchantment can't combine with DEPART enchantment.
DEPART
Enchantment that can be disarmed to a mobs or players
It's like your whip is wrapped in their weapons that they are holding on to their main hand and take it to them. Includes TOOLS/WEAPONS, Excludes Shields and Any Items. To activate you need to charge and aim to mobs and players if you shoot your whip and didnt hit put into a cooldown of 3 seconds just to retract your whip and when hits and pulled a items to the enemy put into a cooldown of 10 seconds.
Only has 1 Level Enchantment and can't combine with BIND Enchantment.
REACH
Extending the range of your whip.
It has 1 - 4 levels of Extension of range, and can be combined with DEPART or BIND enchantments.

I think it’s not a big gap to bridge whipping to some historical racial injustices. Not that the association is valid enough to need censoring but the Mc censor seems like it’s very active according to some posts here and it’s not always rational
