Gravitas Arcana
by Cukkoo
Gravitas Arcana lets a player bend physics with a held wand, manipulating gravity, time, momentum and collisions on blocks near the hands.
What it does
The mod is a Forge magic mod that adds spell mechanics for physics. A player holding the wand can lift and move blocks, slow or freeze time, redirect kinetic energy, and create localized black holes that pull nearby material inward. Blocks held by the wand are interpolated smoothly, so their motion stays free of visual jitter.
Gravitas Arcana is published for Forge only, with builds for 1.16.5 and 1.20.1, and the 1.0.0 release for 1.20.1 was added on 2026-04-11. It is open source under the MIT License. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Install a Forge loader to run it.
Key features
Gravity control
The wand changes how gravity acts on nearby blocks, so they can be floated, dropped or pulled in a chosen direction.
Time freezing
A spell halts time in an area, holding blocks and objects still while the player works on them.
Localized black holes
A black hole spell creates a small region that draws in surrounding blocks and matter, confined to a set area.
Kinetic energy reflection
Momentum and impacts can be reflected back, letting players redirect collisions and surf floating chunks.

Use cases
Physics puzzles
Players can build contraptions that rely on moving, freezing or collapsing blocks with the wand.
Spatial building
Floating chunks and held blocks let players arrange large structures in the air without placing each piece by hand.
Who it’s for: Players who want magic centered on physics and telekinesis, and server owners who run Forge 1.16.5 or 1.20.1 worlds where spells should work on shared builds.
