Hadean Breathe
by Vzling
Hadean Breathe adds three Nether bosses for Forge 1.20.1, led by the Hadean Enforcer, along with a weapon called the Ember.
What it does
The mod follows a background story set in the Nether: after the Nether Lord's war spread across the Nether, three generals ruled the region until its inhabitants rose up and overthrew them. The generals survive as remnant spirits, and the bosses in this mod are built around them. Players fight the Hadean Enforcer, the first boss-level mob, and then the second and third bosses, each with its own set of materials, weapons and armor.
Boss summoning methods and structures are included, along with items and equipment tied to the story. The current development stage supports boss challenges and boss battles, and the mod can be played normally in survival. Hadean Breathe requires VzlingLib, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Forge 1.20.1 is the only game version with files, and the latest is 0.25.7, dated 2026-10-13 on the beta channel. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

How it compares
Infinity Golem Boss Fight is a Forge 1.20.1 boss mod that is server-side only, under the MIT License, so players can join without installing it. The Final Boss also targets Forge 1.20.1 and is client and server, but it is under All rights reserved. Both differ from Hadean Breathe in their boss content and in which side needs the mod.
