Corail Tombstone
by Corail_31
When a player dies, Corail Tombstone places their inventory into a grave so the items are kept safe for recovery.
What it does
The mod stores a dying player's inventory in a grave, and the items can be taken back from it. Graves are also decorative blocks: a grave plate combined with an iron ingot at the anvil produces an engraved name that can be applied to or changed on a decorative grave, and a config option can turn name changes off. Graves can be located through the structure tag tombstone:abandoned grave.
The mod adds a knowledge-based progression track, along with spiritual energy, spellcraft and scrolls that hold hidden lore. Undead companions can be tamed, and a flying carpet can be ridden. Rare Grave Guardians appear near graves, protect the area from hostile creatures and trade with players, which is one way to obtain Essence of Undeath. Players build a decorative grave from Grave's Dust and Essence of Undeath.
Installation needs Forge or NeoForge. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is all rights reserved and not open source. Files exist for 26.2, with the latest Forge and NeoForge builds, forge-26.2-9.9.4 and neoforge-26.2-9.9.4, dated 2026-10-05. The project has been actively maintained since 2016.
