Hellish structures
by DuoCraft
Hellish structures adds a fortress, a blaze tower and spawner rooms to the Nether, placed by world generation so players find them while exploring.
What it does
The mod places several large structures in the Nether. The Massive Nether Castle is a sprawling fortress with treasure and hazards, and the Blaze Tower is a fiery tower ruled by Blazes that offers high rewards. Two unique structures are included now, and more are planned for later updates.
Each structure has its own loot table, balanced to give rare and valuable rewards. Mob spawners are scattered through the structures, and the structures are made to be uncommon so finding one feels like a discovery. The mod is a server-side addition, so only the server needs it and players can join without installing it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21 – 1.21.4, and the code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.

Custom loot tables
