Divine Favor
by Aurocosh
Divine Favor is a Forge magic mod for 1.12.2 centered on casting spells through talismans and gaining favor with nine themed spirits.
What it does
Players gain favor with a spirit by trading at its altar or by using talismans that belong to it. Talismans let the player cast spells, and the mod contains more than a hundred of them. Trades are crafting-style recipes with JEI support, and contacting a spirit lets the player harness spiritual power. Multiblock structures such as spirit altars and soulbound lecterns provide the setting for these interactions, and bubbly baths appear among the mod's features.
The mod ships an in-game guide called Immaterial Guide, a book-like reference that describes the spirits, spells and altars. A convenient HUD and item short descriptions shown through JEI help players read the mechanics without leaving the game. Divine Favor requires Forgelin-Continuous and Patchouli. CraftTweaker, Just Enough Items (JEI), MTLib and Max Potion ID Extender are optional and extend or display its content.
The mod is released for Forge on 1.12.2 only, with the latest file 1.0.788 dated 2024-06-18, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is not open source and is under All rights reserved, while the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Nine themed spirits
Nine spirits each offer their own set of talismans and spells, so favor is earned from one spirit at a time.

Spirit altars and multiblocks
Spirit altars, soulbound lecterns and other multiblock structures host the spirit trades and rituals.
