Mortal Burden

When a player dies, the mod can delete part of the inventory, with the share scaled by difficulty from 0% up to 80%. Items can be recovered later with the reclaim command. Other effects follow the death: a burden debuff of weakness and mining fatigue lasting between 10 and 60 seconds, a half-health respawn that carries hunger, and slowness that grows with how much the player carries.

Each death feeds a burden score and a death counter, and the burden command sets thresholds on that counter. Death echo and grief weight add further features, while memory grace and night vision with resistance buffs offer some relief. Eight of these features can be switched off through gamerules, and more than twenty gamerules allow full customization, which suits servers that want keepInventory left enabled but still need a penalty.
