Depths of Madness
by JBoyMercs
Depths of Madness adds an ocean temple boss encounter to Forge 1.12.2, with new enemies, a staff weapon and a set of temple building blocks.
What it does
New structures appear in ocean biomes. Players find them by looking for a statue poking out of the water, then sailing out to locate the temple, which the author describes as a place of eerie presence and haunting halls. Inside, the Thrall screams and attacks on sight, and the Claw Trap takes a fixed position to finish off players who survive the other dangers.
The Hierophant boss drops the Forgotten Staff when slain, a weapon that harnesses the Hierophant's powers. Temple Stone and Strong Obsidian give builders a complete set of blocks taken from the temple. Many configuration options control things like spawn rate, temple health and enemy attack damage.
The mod requires Geckolib on Forge and is published for 1.12.2 only. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is released under the MIT License but is not open source. The author notes it was submitted to a mod jam and that more updates are planned before it is considered complete, following the pattern of the Lamented Islands expansion.

What the author says
Depths of madness is a mod submitted for the 1.12.2 Modding Coalitions fall mod jam. This mod consists of a new horrific being that lies at the bottom of the very ocean. To locate this creature, you'll first have to boat out into the ocean and look for something that doesn't quite belong there. Ido (By bagu_chan500)…
