End Expanse
by EndExpanser
End Expanse, a world generation mod for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, adds biomes, floating loot islands and new End plants to the vanilla dimension.
What it does
The mod keeps the look of the vanilla End and extends it with two new biomes, a ruined citadel and a rideable sky ray. Floating loot islands are small and scattered, and the two new End plants grow alongside the vanilla End cities. Its 16×16 textures and quiet mechanics are meant to match the vanilla feel rather than replace it.
Several items tie into the new content. A Void Compass uses a needle that points to the nearest citadel, and the Voidwoven Elytra is smithed with a citadel vault template and repaired with crystals instead of phantom membranes. A void lantern and crystal blocks give builders new decoration options, and harvested clusters follow Silk Touch and Fortune as expected.
End Expanse requires Fabric API on Fabric and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for 1.21 – 1.21.10 across nine release versions, and the mod is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.
Key features
Two new biomes
Silent biomes and a ruined citadel add terrain to the End without changing the existing dimension layout.
Rideable sky ray
A sky ray can be ridden between the floating islands, giving players a way to cross the new terrain.
Void Compass
The compass needle locks onto the nearest citadel, so players can find the structure without exploring blindly.
Voidwoven Elytra
Elytra are smithed with a citadel vault template and repaired with crystals instead of phantom membranes.

What the author says
The End always felt unfinished — and that was part of its charm. End Expanse adds to it carefully, in vanilla style: 16×16 textures, quiet mechanics, and the same feeling of being very far from home. Plus: tiny floating loot islands, two new End plants, and vanilla end cities also generate in the new biomes.
