Marshlaw's Custom Totems
by Marshlaw
Marshlaw's Custom Totems gives players a set of totems, each granting a special ability taken from a different mob, such as the Warden, Blaze, Iron Golem, Skeleton, Pig, Cow, Chicken and Zombie.
What it does
Each totem in the set is a piece of equipment that carries one mob-themed ability. The totems are added to the game with their own crafting recipes and sit in the Equipment category alongside the utility content the mod also covers. A player holds a totem as they would an ordinary item and benefits from its effect while it is active.
The mod is distributed for Forge and NeoForge only, with builds for 1.20.1, 1.20.6, 1.21.1, 1.21.4 and 1.21.8 across the 1.20.1 – 1.21.8 range. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
