More Totem
by BadutZY
More Totem adds several new totem variants to Fabric that each carry a different effect alongside the familiar death-saving function of the vanilla Totem of Undying.
What it does
Each added totem keeps the core cheat-death behavior of the original and attaches its own extra effect when activated. Some variants trigger the death-saving effect more than once, which gives a player further chances to survive compared with the vanilla totem, which is used up after a single save. Other variants center on defense: one themed on fire shields the holder from fire and lava damage, another grants Resistance, and a third applies Regeneration to restore health fast right after a close call with death.
Other variants add combat or escape effects: one grants Water Breathing for fights underwater, one releases an explosion or a lightning strike that pushes back or damages nearby enemies, and one releases a shockwave that knocks back nearby entities. A teleporting variant moves the player to a safe spot, such as the spawn point or a bed, when its effect fires, while another rescues a player who drops into the void, something the vanilla totem cannot stop. A further variant helps keep inventory and experience after death.
The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. It targets 1.21 – 1.21.11 with files for twelve release versions, and the latest Fabric file is 1.5.1 for 1.21.11. Custom crafting recipes are included for each variant, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
