The Mod of the Agonizer
With The Mod of the Agonizer installed, players fight a chain of boss creatures, each summoned through a crafted shrine and tied to an elemental shard.
What it does
The mod's central progression is a set of nineteen bosses, each linked to one of the four elemental shards: Air, Flame, Mystery and Agony. Combining the shards creates a Shard LORE item, which leads to a twentieth boss, the Lore-Keeper. To fight a boss, a player crafts a summon item or a shrine; the shrine described by the author is built from three iron blocks across the top row, four glass blocks at the bottom corners and sides, and salt blocks, found underground, in the remaining slots.
The author describes the mod as a long attempt to explain its many concepts in one place, and crafting recipes are meant to be viewed with recipe viewers such as Enough Items. Environment: the server and every player need the mod. The license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0, so the mod is not open source. Files exist for Forge only, for 1.12.2, with 2025.08.22.2 as the latest build, published on 2025-08-23.

What the author says
The Mod of the Agonizer (or MotA) is a mod by me (27dudek27sep27), Spudtsar, LitteHawkSimeon, and Theagonizer22 created using the mod creation software MCreator. When the idea for the mod was first conceived in the summer of 2014, the basic premise was to add four new Bosses to the game (one based off of each of us)…
