Baby Creeper - Малыш Крипер
by WBA_Union
Baby Creeper lets players tame a baby Creeper, a pet that follows commands, and it is built for Forge on 1.12.2 and 1.20.1.
What it does
Players get a baby Creeper that can be tamed with gunpowder. Only a Creeper summoning egg spawns the mob, so the baby does not appear on its own. Once tamed, the pet responds to commands such as let's go, sit and tag it. A tamed baby Creeper scares away ordinary Creepers, and a baby fed an enchanted golden apple gains a special charged effect that lets it protect its owner: a Creeper that attacks the owner or a child can be struck by the charged blast, and the pet can remain alive.
The mod fits both single-player worlds and multiplayer servers, and the author describes it as suitable for playing on a server. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Forge only, for two game versions: 1.12.2 and 1.20.1, with 14.1 for 1.20.1 as the latest file. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, although public links exist for its source code.
