Masquerade
by Deo-Monere
Masquerade lets a player wear another player's head and take on that person's look, so friends and enemies can be disguised during a round.
What it does
A player disguises themselves by killing a target with a sword or axe named Beheader, picking up the dropped head and placing it in the helmet slot. Wearing the head gives the look of that person, including the cape, and the name shown in the tab list, chat and achievements screen. Killing a player with a Beheader weapon is the way to collect a head, and the head removes itself from the helmet slot when the player places a helmet item in that slot.
To hide identity without a head, a player brews an Invisibility Potion and drinks it. The potion particles are not shown, so the player looks ordinary while disguised. The mod works as a minigame for friends or enemies and runs on Fabric with Paper and Folia as server platforms. Players remove a disguise with the command masquerade remove. Masquerade runs on the client and the server, so both need the mod. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.2, and the latest file, v1.0.0, targets 26.2; it is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

What the author says
My mod/plugin allows you to disguise yourself as your friends or enemies by beheading them with a sword or axe and wearing their heads on your own. You will look like the person whose head you are wearing, and you will have their cape. Your name will be the same as the person's in the tab, chat, achievements and on…
