Blessing Of Keep
by bikerboys
Blessing Of Keep is a server mod that adds a Blessing Keep enchantment, letting items marked with it stay in the inventory after the player dies.
What it does
Blessing Keep is an enchantment that Blessing Of Keep adds to the game. An item carrying it is kept in the player's inventory when the player dies, in a way similar to selective keep-inventory options. The enchantment can be obtained from the enchanting table and from librarian villagers, though the author notes the enchanting table route was not yet tested at the time of writing.
The mod works on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21 and 1.21.1, and as a data pack. Only the server has to run it, while a player's client may add it but does not need it. The author describes it as a proof of concept with known limits: it was rewritten as a dynamic system that still spawns two chest minecarts per player, the feature is only reliable for about 30 unique players, and items with the enchantment are not kept if the holder leaves the server. The author also notes the 2.0 update replaces an earlier redundant release. Blessing Of Keep is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
