Maddy's Origins
by Noobulus
Maddy's Origins replaces the stock origins of the Origins mod with nine new origins, each changing how a player moves, fights, crafts and eats.
What it does
Each origin gives a player a different species, such as Avian, Amphibian, Construct or Critter, with its own abilities, tools and base appearance. The choice of origin sets how the player plays from the first session, and the mod is meant as a complete, cohesive experience rather than a set of unrelated powers. Maddy's Origins requires Origins, and it runs on Fabric for 1.21.1 under the MIT License, which makes the code open source.
Most origin features interact with specific blocks, items and fluids, and many of these links are tag-based and can be amended through simple data edits. Optional integration exists for AppleSkin, Brewin' And Chewin', EMI, Farmer's Delight Refabricated, My Nether's Delight Refabricated, Nears, Pearfection, Rustic Delight and Sooty Chimneys. Because the mod works on client and server, the server and every player need it, and servers that run it are expected to install compatible versions of the optional mods.
The source code and issue tracker are public, so compatibility problems with other mods can be reported and tweaks submitted. Files for 1.21.1 are the only build on record, and the latest Fabric file is version 1.2.1, dated 2025-09-08.
