Manifestation of the souls
by hrodebert17
Manifestation of the Souls adds a stand system to NeoForge for Minecraft 1.21.1, inspired by the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga by Hirohiko Araki.
What it does
Every player receives a stand, a personal companion with its own abilities, and the mod's content is built around choosing and using one. Each stand has a distinct playstyle: some favor stealth, some direct attacks and others trap-making, and a few are purely utility. Stands differ in range and damage, and some can turn ordinary mobs into allies, which can be commanded remotely to build an army. Stand abilities can also be stored on disks and given to entities.
The mod is a Client and server environment, so the server and every player must run it. It requires Geckolib and playerAnimator, and the code is under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, which makes it not open source. Files are published for 1.21.1 only, with 5.3.1 as the latest file since 2026-06-03, and the mod has been on the catalog since 2024-12-15. A wiki is linked from its public pages.
Key features
Personal stands
Each player gets a stand with its own abilities, damage and range, chosen to suit a fighting or building style.
Traps and bombs
Some stands break blocks, convert entities into bombs or deploy a remote-controlled tank that sets traps for enemies.
Time and gravity abilities
Stands can stop time for a short period, invert an enemy's gravity or accelerate the universe to move faster than everyone else.
Stand disks
Stand abilities can be pulled out as disks and applied to entities, which lets players build a group of controlled mobs.

Stands with strong attacks or stealth can be picked to match a boss fight or a quest line.
Who it’s for: Players who want stand-based combat, trap building and mob control in a JoJo-inspired setting, on NeoForge 1.21.1 servers and clients.
How it compares
JOJO - stone block crusaders is also JoJo-inspired, but it is server-side required with optional client support, under the MIT License, and covers 1.21.11 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. JoJo: Winds of Requiem is a NeoForge 1.21.1 mod with the same client and server environment, but it is released under All rights reserved rather than the GNU General Public License. Manifestation of the Souls covers only NeoForge 1.21.1 and is not open source.
