Memento Mori

by stormdirus2

Memento Mori, a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.16.5, reworks the Attrition effect so that soul damage and mob-based Satiation play a larger role in a run.

FabricServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.16 – 1.16.5

What it does

Attrition has been reworked. The effect lasts 20 minutes by default, and the duration can be changed through gamerules. When the timer runs out, the effect drops one level instead of disappearing, and a level IV Attrition takes 80 minutes to clear completely. In human form the Attrition timer ticks upward instead of downward. Once the configured Attrition duration is reached, the duration resets and the amplifier increases, and reaching level IV with a lower Attrition level kills the player. Level IV is the maximum.

Satiation can be gained by possessing a mob and attacking certain types of mobs, and it is one of the mod's new mechanics. Humans in the Minecraft world give the most, while Piglins give smaller amounts, about a quarter. Taking soul damage adds to Attrition duration instead of damaging health, with 3 soul damage adding 3 seconds by default. The mod also includes balancing options for Golems, Piglin Brutes, Soul fire and Dragon breath.

The mod requires Requiem, which it relies on for its underlying balancing, and it also works alongside the content balancing add-on Requiem. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing it, and the code is released under the MIT License, so it is open source.

Key features

  1. Reworked Attrition

    Attrition drops one level when its timer expires and can reach level IV, which takes 80 minutes to clear.

  2. Soul damage timer

    Soul damage extends the Attrition duration, and damage over a configurable threshold raises the amplifier.

  3. Satiation from mobs

    Possessed mobs grant Satiation when they attack certain mob types, with humans giving the most.

  4. Configurable durations

    The Attrition duration and the reset behavior can be adjusted with gamerules.

What the author says

## A content and balancing add-on for Requiem. Obviously, this mod requires Requiem. It has been tested with version 1.5.1, but may even work on earlier ones.
