Mahou Tsukai
by stepsword
Mahou Tsukai is a Forge and NeoForge magic mod that puts its weight on the effects of each spell and on making every spell distinct.
What it does
Rather than focusing on how a player builds a spell, Mahou Tsukai concentrates on spell uniqueness and special effects. Many spells draw on ideas from Fate/Stay Night and other media, but knowing those sources is not needed to understand or enjoy the mod.
The mod leaves out any function that vanilla or another mod already provides, so it adds no bonemeal or fire-starting variants of existing items. It adds no worldgen beyond a custom dimension, and none of its content is locked behind generated structures, so it can be added to an existing world. It runs on client and server, and files exist for Forge and NeoForge across 15 release versions, 1.12.2 – 26.1.2, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Distinct spell effects
Each spell is built around a particular visual and mechanical effect, so spells differ in what they do rather than only in their recipes.
No duplicated utilities
Functions already handled by vanilla or other mods are left out, so the mod adds spells without repeating existing tools.
Worldgen-free design
Apart from a custom dimension, no content depends on custom worldgen, so the mod fits into worlds that already exist.

What the author says
Mahou Tsukai is a magic mod focused mainly on spell uniqueness and special effects, instead of focusing on how spells are created, as many magic mods do. Many of the spells are based on similar concepts in Fate/Stay Night and other media, but knowledge of these media are not at all necessary to understand and enjoy…
