Manniclones

Name: Manniclones
Author: mMeneske

Manniclones lets a player create copies of themselves from the new mannequin entity added in Minecraft 1.21.11, and each copy shares one inventory and health bar.

What it does

Clones are made with the mannicloner, a crafted item, and every clone is a mannequin entity that copies the player's hands and armour. All clones draw on one shared inventory and one health bar, and killing a clone does not remove the others. Only sending it into the void gets rid of a clone, since the author describes the clones as otherwise immortal and balances the mod that way.

The mod is meant for survival and competitive servers, where it can serve as an escape tool from traps, since a trap can catch a clone instead of the player. A custom ender pearl lands the player at a spawned clone, and the mannicloner can teleport to random existing clones. The server must run the mod, while players may add it to their own clients.

Manniclones is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, plus a data pack for server platforms, with every file for 1.21.11. The latest build is Pre-Release-2, a beta channel file from 2026-07-09, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
