EndermanGrief
EndermanGrief is a server-side Fabric mod that switches off or changes several Enderman behaviors, from block pickup to random teleporting.
What it does
Endermen can be configured with EndermanGrief to stop picking up and placing blocks, to stop teleporting at random, and to stop despawning. The mod can also keep Endermen permanently aggressive toward the player, or make them invisible from version 0.3 on. From 0.3, server owners can also disable the Enderman AI entirely, and stop Endermen from taking damage from lava, fire, water, freezing or explosions. A further option silences their obnoxious noises.
The mod is configured through a simple file at config\endermangrief.conf, and it works in singleplayer as well as on a server. It only modifies vanilla Endermen, and the author warns that it may conflict with other mods that change the Enderman entity. It is published for Fabric only, across 1.18.1 and 1.18.2, with version 0.3 for 1.18.2 as the latest file. The code is under the MIT License and is open source. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing it.
Key features
Block handling
Endermen can be kept from placing and picking up blocks, which keeps builds and farms intact.
Teleport and despawn control
Random teleporting and despawning of Endermen can each be turned off separately.
Damage immunity options
Endermen can be stopped from taking damage from lava, fire, water, freezing and explosions.
Aggression and visibility
Endermen can be made always angry at the player, or made invisible from version 0.3 on.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners and players who want to tune how Endermen behave in vanilla worlds. The mod only changes vanilla Endermen, so modded entities are outside its scope.
How it compares
EnderGrab is a Fabric mod for 1.18.2 that is client and server and open source under the MIT License, so every player must install it. Enderman Tweaks is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License, and either side can run it without needing it. Small Endermen is a Fabric mod for 1.16.2 – 1.16.5, client and server, and open source under the MIT License, which means it targets an older version range than EndermanGrief.
