Forgotten Mobs
by Grinner117
Forgotten Mobs brings monsters drawn from the DND 5e Monster Manual and Volo's Guide to Monsters into Minecraft, including dragons, giants and animated armor.
What it does
The mod adds tabletop-style creatures to the world, among them a Shadow Dragon, a White Dragon, Animated Armor, an Intellect Devourer, a Cloud Giant and a Displacer Beast. Several of them appear in more than one form: the Shadow Dragon comes in different ages, and the armored monsters vary in toughness. Goblins and other creatures are split into several classes, so encounters can differ from one another.
Forgotten Mobs is a world generation and adventure mod that needs Geckolib 1.19 to run its animated models. Both the server and every player must install it, since the environment is client and server. The mod is published for Forge only, with files for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and the license is All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The latest Forge file, 2.8 for 1.20.1, was released on 2023-11-16.

How it compares
LostDepths is a Forge mod for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 that is also client and server and under All rights reserved, so it covers the same versions but adds a different kind of content. Alpha Void runs only on 1.20.1 with Forge, is client and server, and is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. CrazyMonsters is another Forge mod for 1.20.1 with the same environment, under All rights reserved.
