Medieval Origins Revival
by muon-rw
Medieval Origins Revival gives players fantasy and mythology-inspired origins that change their race, starting traits and abilities in a Minecraft world.
What it does
Origins chosen by a player set a character's starting race and abilities, such as the Arachnae, High Elf, Moon Elf, Plague Victim and Revenant. Each origin changes how the character moves, fights and survives. Built-in integration covers Mermod, Icarus, Spell Power Attributes and Thermoo, along with the mods that use Thermoo, Frostiful and Scorchful, and Ice and Fire with Community Edition.
The mod works with most gear mods, including Mythic Metals, MC Dungeons Weapons, Simply Swords and the RPG Series. It requires Origins, Icarus, Pehkui and Spell Engine on every loader. The Forge variant of Origins has been dropped by its maintainers, so Forge players have to pick a different build of the base mod. Builds exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, covering game versions 1.19.2 – 1.21.1 with four release versions, and the code is open source under the MIT License. Installation covers the server and each player's game.
