Mob Talisman
by Fneifnox
Mob Talisman gives players single-use talismans that grant a mob's ability, such as a Spider Talisman for wall sprinting or a Creeper Talisman that makes creepers flee.
What it does
The mod adds 48 talismans, each tied to one mob, and each one grants that mob's power when used. Talismans can be obtained one at a time, and the gallery in the mod shows every talisman with its effect. Some talismans have cooldowns, which are listed in the gallery. Examples include a Wither Talisman that yields a random item, a Villager Talisman that lets the player kill a mob, an Enderman Talisman that teleports the player back to a saved position, and a Sheep Talisman that lets the player eat grass.
Talismans also reach into other systems. One grants the ability to open shulker boxes from the hotbar without placing them, and another gives a wind charge boost when a certain key is pressed. A Creeper Talisman keeps creepers afraid of the player for longer before they explode. The mod needs Fabric, Fabric API, Accessories, Cardinal Components API and oωo (owo-lib), and Additional Entity Attributes is bundled inside it. Mod Menu is optional but recommended for the settings screen. Files cover 1.21 and 1.21.1, and the mod is published under a custom license that is not open source.
On a multiplayer server, the server must be restarted for config changes to apply, while in singleplayer the world has to be rejoined. Mob Talisman runs on client and server, so both sides need it. The latest Fabric file is 1.2.0 for 1.21.1, published on 2025-07-30, and the source code and issue tracker are publicly linked.
