HeavenGuardian Statue Worldgen
by HeartByte
HeavenGuardian Statue Worldgen adds a giant Heaven Guardian statue that generates naturally in the world, with a hidden loot chest in its base.
What it does
The structure is a large custom NBT template placed by random-spread rules, with a minimum distance of about 500 blocks between spawns. It appears on surface ocean biomes and on plains-like biomes, including meadow, flower forest, sunflower plains, cherry grove and stony peaks. Ocean variants cover the warm, lukewarm, cold and frozen ocean types, so the statue can stand in several kinds of water.
The template skips air blocks, so the statue does not carve large empty holes into the terrain. A second structure, Gojo Saturo Structure, is listed among the mod's features alongside the Heaven Guardian. The structure can be found with the locate command, using the identifier heartbyte:heaven guardian, and placed with the place structure command under the same identifier. The mod is distributed for Fabric, and a Paper build is available for server platforms. Files cover 1.21 – 26.1.2, and the latest Fabric file is v1.0.0 for 1.21.11, released on 2026-08-26.

Key features
Heaven Guardian statue
A giant statue generates in the world with a hidden loot chest in its base, and a sea lantern marks the chest on one side.
Ocean and plains biomes
The structure spawns on surface oceans and on several plains-like biomes, including cherry grove and stony peaks.
Rare placement spacing
Random-spread placement keeps spawns roughly 500 or more blocks apart, so statues stay scarce across a world.
Loot from the base chest
The hidden chest holds diamonds, tools, spears and totems, with the rarer items placed further in the loot table.
