Grimms ⭐
by TetchWolf
With Grimms installed, players craft Starlite gems and inject them into essences that shape how each gem is born.
What it does
Grimms adds alien stones built around Starlite, a new ore found in the Nether alongside blackstone. Starlite parts are needed for the injector, and the injector turns a gem base into a finished gem. The gem base is crafted at a crafting table from Glowstone Dust, Amethyst Shard and Quartz, with a magical mixture added. The first version includes eight gems. Diamond essences come from trading with Wandering Traders and from the Gemologist, a new villager profession, and a gun head workstation is also added.
The result of an injection depends on several factors, including the biome temperature around the block. Rubies act as small soldiers: a right click makes one attack with fire and heat raw food, and they spawn most often in hot biomes. Sapphires are rare gems that can foretell the future, and a minigame that offers iron, gold nugget or sapphire decides the outcome. Pearls serve as mobile chests that can be customized with a Blue Comb, and a Conch Flute summons Combat Pearls, which come as Defense and Attack types. The mod requires Kleiders Custom Renderer Api.
