Legendary Item Reforged
by Vaniron
Legendary Item Reforged brings Tolkien-inspired weapons from the Lord of the Rings and Silmarillion into Minecraft as a separate creative tab.
What it does
The mod adds legendary artifacts, cold weapons, gems and staves drawn from J.R.R. Tolkien's books, including Staff Alatar Blue, Azog's Mace, Balin's Sword, Bolg's Mace and Boromir's Sword. Its entire content sits in one creative tab, holding 52 new weapons and 2 new items. Weapon statistics are modeled on the diamond sword, and the weapon gems are taken from the Wikipalantir wiki about the Lord of the Rings universe.
Almost every cold weapon uses its own texture and is rendered as an epic weapon in the player's hand, in both first-person and third-person views. The mod targets Fabric only, with a single build for 1.21.8, and it is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Public links exist for its source code and issue tracker.
Installation covers the server and each player's game. It is listed in the Equipment category, and it is updated for Fabric 1.21.8 with the latest file, 1.21.8-24.10.09, first published and last updated on 2026-07-09. Players who enjoy the Middle-Earth mod can use it alongside that content.

Use cases
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who want Tolkien-inspired equipment on Fabric 1.21.8, and server owners who run a Lord of the Rings or Middle-Earth themed world with a shared item set.
How it compares
Legendary Equipment is a Fabric mod for 1.21.8 – 1.21.11 with the same client and server environment and an All rights reserved license, so it is not open source. Mace No More is a Fabric mod for 1.21 – 1.21.5 that is server required and client optional, under the MIT License, and it focuses on maces rather than the Tolkien artifact set.

What the author says
The entire content of the mod is a separate creative tab with 52 new weapons and 2 new gems. Each weapon has stats of diamond sword. Every weapon and gem is taken from "Wikipalantir" (wiki-site about LOTR universe). So, if the site is full and correct, this mod contains all general artifacts from the legendarium…
