Explosion King
Explosion King lets players set off controlled blasts with grenades, a potion, a whistle and a charged creeper summon, all added to Minecraft by the Fabric mod.
What it does
The mod adds throwable grenades, a potion that grants short explosion immunity, a whistle that summons a charged creeper, and tools for choosing where and how explosions happen. Players can place and ignite TNT, or throw grenades that detonate on impact, so blasts are planned rather than left to chance. The aim is to let players decide when things get chaotic, from precise demolition to large storm-like disasters.
Explosion King runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.11. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the latest file, 1.0.0, was published on 2026-01-25. Explosion King does not require another mod, so Fabric API is not listed as a dependency.
Key features
Grenades
Throwable grenades explode after a short fuse, rewarding players who time their throws and pick the right spot.
Explosion immunity potion
A drinkable potion grants brief immunity to explosions for the player who drinks it, and no one else.
Charged creeper whistle
A whistle summons a charged creeper, allowing a blast to be called in on demand.
Controlled explosions
Players choose where explosions happen and how strong they are, instead of relying on accidental blasts.

Throwable TNT is a Fabric mod for 1.20 – 1.20.6 under the MIT License, and it also runs on client and server. Creeperium is a Fabric mod for 1.20 – 1.20.4 under All rights reserved, and it is server-side only, so players join without installing it.
