Jay's Monsters
by JayCChambers
Jay's Monsters adds eight new husks and eight new zombies to Fabric worlds, spawning alongside the classic mobs in the desert and elsewhere.
What it does
The new husks and zombies spawn at random next to the vanilla versions, which adds variety to the monsters players meet in the overworld. The added zombies keep the undead traits of normal zombies: they burn in sunlight, can spawn as baby versions, and can carry tools and weapons in their hands. They drop the same loot as a standard zombie. New monsters also appear from spawners, so spawner-based farms and dungeons include them.
Jay's Monsters runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it installed. It is published for Fabric only, across three release versions, 26.1 – 26.2, with 1.0.1 for 26.2 as the latest file. Fabric API 0.156.0+26.2 is required. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Eight new husks

Eight new zombies
Eight zombie variants join the classic zombie, with the same undead behavior as normal zombies.
Spawner support
The new monsters also appear from spawners, not only from natural spawning.
Standard mob tags
The mod uses the common c:tags for mobs, which helps other tech and storage mods recognize its creatures.
