Drake AutoTotem
by SoyDrake
Drake AutoTotem is a Fabric utility for players who want a Totem of Undying moved into the offhand automatically when a death is about to happen.
What it does
The mod watches the player and detects when a fatal hit is about to land. At that moment it moves a Totem of Undying into the offhand instantly, so the totem can take effect without a manual inventory action. Pressing G turns the automatic swap off and on again.
The mod is a simple AutoTotem for singleplayer worlds and works only there. It needs Fabric API on Fabric. Drake AutoTotem runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is released under the MIT License, though the project is not open source. Files exist only for 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 as the latest Fabric file from 2026-05-23.
Key features
Automatic totem swap
When a fatal hit is detected, a Totem of Undying is placed in the offhand without a manual inventory action.
Toggle with G
Pressing G switches the automatic swap off, and pressing it again switches it back on.
Singleplayer only
The swap works only in singleplayer worlds, so multiplayer servers are not affected by its behavior.
Simple behavior
The mod only handles the totem swap, with no extra menus or settings beyond the G toggle.

How it compares
Autototem detector is a Fabric client-side only mod for 1.21.11 under the MIT License, so players can run it alone. Advanced Autototem is a client-side only Fabric mod for 1.21.1 – 1.21.10 under All rights reserved, which means it covers older builds. AutoTotem Plus is a Fabric and Quilt mod for 1.21.1 – 1.21.8 that is client and server, so it has to be on both sides.
