Icarae Origin
by Up
Icarae Origin is a Transportation and magic add-on for the Origins power system that lets a player start as a winged, flight-related race with its own limits.
What it does
Players who pick the origin begin with wings equipped, and the Icarus wings remain usable as well. The wings can be given a different appearance and they wear down with use, so their durability matters during long flights. The origin also starts the player with less health than a standard character and sets a few hard limits: flight is not possible while wet, fire can set the player alight, and flying too high brings burning.
The origin changes diet as well. The player can eat only meat, which shapes how food is found and cooked in a survival world. Icarae Origin runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod, along with Fabric API, Icarus, Origins and Origins (Forge) as its required dependencies. Once installed, the origin and the wings work together through the add-on.
Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with builds for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. The latest release is 1.2.0 for 1.20.1, dated 2026-02-12. The code is not open source and is released as All rights reserved. Public links exist for the source code, issue tracker and wiki.
