Maledicta

Curses in the mod shift how items and enchantments act. Karma can hurt the owner of a cursed item, while Kindness heals the victim instead of harming them. Randomness shuffles enchantments on an item, except for curses, and a lightning strike on a lightning rod removes cursed items. An item lying around can also move another item when the curse triggers. The mod was first made for the SpookyJam 2022 event and was first published on 2022-10-02.

Maledicta also adds effects on combat and collection: a collected item can carry a hidden value, an item in the nether off-hand gains an increase, and undead mobs take more damage. A new lightning rod, the Maledictus Aufero, is part of the mod. The mod requires LibX, and Jade and Just Enough Items (JEI) are optional. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.
