Behemoths
by AquTheSeal
Behemoths is a Forge expansion for Minecraft 1.20.1 that adds massive threats, special gear and a world-wide curse system, aimed at players who find standard survival lacking a challenge.
What it does
The mod centers on the Pandemonium Curses, world-wide modifiers that make the game harder once applied. A curse is chosen through the Pandemonium Voting System, a democratic vote in which players pick one curse from three offered. Voting can start through an Apocalypse trigger, which lets the players decide when the nightmare begins, or by completing specific advancements or slaying configured entities.
Behemoths is installed on the Forge loader only, for Minecraft 1.20.1. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is all rights reserved and not open source, though public links to the source code and issue tracker exist. The latest Forge file is 1.1.1.0 for 1.20.1, published on 2026-04-04, after a first release on 2026-02-07.
Key features
Pandemonium Voting System
Players vote on one curse out of three options, with the curse holding the most votes applied to the world permanently.
Curse tie-breaking
When two or more curses tie, two extra candidates are added and a random curse among the options is selected.
Voting triggers
Voting can start from the Apocalypse trigger, from specific advancements or from slaying configured entities, and the timing is configurable.
Admin controls
World admins can add or remove curses, start or stop voting, and check which curses are active with the pandemonium command.
