Beheaded
by okipiak
Beheaded lets players craft player heads, rename them on an anvil and change the skin they show, for decorative collectible heads without commands or external tools.
What it does
Heads are crafted from a player head and the components needed for the chosen skin, then renamed on an anvil. The result is a decorative block or item that keeps the name given to it. Because no commands are involved, builders can make custom heads directly in survival play.
Installation targets Fabric and Quilt. Beheaded runs on the server side only, so clients join without installing it. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Files cover 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1 and 26.1.2, with the latest build 1.1-26.1 for 26.1.2, published 2026-05-23. The mod was first published on 2026-05-14 and last updated on 2026-05-23.
Key features
Craftable player heads
Player heads can be crafted in the normal crafting grid, so a head is not limited to command or creative access.
Anvil renaming
Heads are renamed on an anvil, and the new name is kept on the finished block.
Skin changes
A crafted head can be given a different skin, which lets builders choose the look of each decorative head.
Collectible decorations
The heads are meant as simple decorative pieces that can be displayed in builds and collections.

Who it’s for: Builders and survival players who want decorative player heads with custom names and skins, and server owners who want those heads available through normal crafting.
How it compares
PlayerHeads+ is server-side only, under the MIT License, with files for 1.20 – 26.1.2 on Fabric and Quilt. Beheaded is also server-side only and runs on the same two loaders, but it is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Craftable heads needs its server to run it while clients may skip it, supports Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and covers 1.21 – 26.3.
