Chaos Dice
by Ndefix_
Chaos Dice is a craftable NeoForge magic item that players activate for a random outcome, sorted into rarity tiers from Common to Legendary.
What it does
Using the dice does not drop items straight into the inventory. A levitating magical entity appears in the world, and the outcome is revealed only after a short wait, which builds suspense. Outcomes fall into six categories: Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Negative for curses. Common and Rare results cover everyday survival items, resources and standard loot, while Epic and Legendary results hold rare treasures, high-tier gear and top-tier rewards. Negative results trigger dangerous effects and bad luck that balance out the strong rewards.
The dice are built only for NeoForge and are used on version 1.21.1. Crafting one takes several steps: materials such as lapis lazuli, emeralds, gold and diamond are combined at a forge, and the ritual needs a focus and wealth to begin. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is under the MIT License and is open source; a source repository and an issue tracker are public.
