Keeper Allay
by areedelahi
Keeper Allay is a server-side Fabric and Quilt mod in which a spirit collects a player's items after death, so they can be reclaimed by walking back to the spot where the player died.
What it does
When a player dies, a Keeper Allay appears at the place of death and hovers nearby. The whole inventory and armor are saved into the spirit at the moment of death, instead of scattering across the ground. To get the items back, the player walks up to the Allay and interacts with it. The spirit then drifts away into the sky and does not return.
The mod is set on a server, so only the server side needs it. Players join without installing anything. The Keeper Allay is indestructible and immune to fire and explosions, so items are kept safe unless they fall into the void. The spirit can also be made to wait until the owner comes back, which means the animations stay within vanilla behavior.
Installation needs Areed's CoreLib, which is a required dependency, and Fabric API on Fabric. The mod is published for Fabric and Quilt across four game versions, 1.21.11 – 26.3, with 1.3.1 for 26.3 as the latest Fabric file and 1.1.0 for 26.1.2 as the latest Quilt file. Keeper Allay is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Inventory saved on death
The whole inventory and armor are stored in a Keeper Allay the moment the player dies.
Retrieval by interaction
A right click on the spirit returns the stored items, with no command or menu needed.
Multiplayer item protection
Other players cannot take items from a Keeper Allay that belongs to someone else, which limits theft on shared servers.
Indestructible spirit
The Allay cannot be destroyed, burned or blown up, so the stored items stay safe until they are reclaimed.
