Animated Totem (Herta)
With Animated Totem, a totem of undying shows a custom pop animation and plays its own sound effect when it saves a player.
What it does
The mod changes how a totem of undying looks and sounds when it activates. The author replaced the sound with a custom effect, and the pop animation keeps the original vanilla style rather than a rewritten one. It is a Fabric mod built for the client, so only players need to install it, and it is published for 1.11 – 1.21.11 with snapshot builds included. The code is all rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features

Client-side install
