Death Price

Each time a player dies, that player's maximum health drops by one heart, which is two health points, and the loss is permanent. Health reduction stops at a minimum of one heart, so a player cannot be pushed into an instant death loop. After respawning, the player receives ten seconds of Nausea, Slowness and Weakness. A player can recover lost health by crafting a Heart Elixir from four Gold Ingots and one Honey Bottle; drinking it restores one heart of maximum health, up to a cap of ten hearts.

Death Price is designed for survival servers that want deaths to carry lasting consequences, and it draws on the Lifesteal Hardcore idea of permanently punishing players who die. When a player dies, the server broadcasts a custom death message and plays a Wither spawn sound to every online player. The mod integrates with KeepInventory, and English localization is planned for future updates, while in-game messages and item names are currently available only in Indonesian.

Death Price is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files exist for Fabric and Paper for 1.21.11 only, and the mod is All rights reserved and not open source.
