identity thief

by VINAY_VERSE

Identity Theft is a Fabric multiplayer mod in which a player who defeats another player takes on that player's skin and visible username for a limited time.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

When a player kills another player, the killer temporarily assumes the victim's skin and visible username. While the disguise lasts, a 60-second countdown appears on screen, and the player receives short bursts of Strength, Speed and a brief Regeneration effect that help in combat and movement.

Killing another player again replaces the current disguise and resets the timer. When the timer runs out, the original identity returns. The mod runs on Fabric for 1.21.1 and is a client and server mod, so the server and every participating client need it, along with Fabric Loader and Fabric API. Files are released under All rights reserved and the code is not open source.
