Myth & Magic
by Sh4d0w
Myth & Magic adds a magic system built on runes, spells and mythology-inspired weapons, with a knight statue and two crafting tables to make the items.
What it does
Players create runes at a rune table and infuse objects with magic at an infusion table. The infusion table needs powered candles, the same kind the enchanting table uses. Runes are used through a mage staff, which shoots projectiles at mobs and players. Some runes heal a target, freeze it, set it on fire, strike it with lightning or explode it. The mod also adds more magic mythical weapons, and Excalibur is bound to the player who holds it, so it cannot be broken by a summoned default key.
Knight statues can be placed as decoration and picked up again with an empty hand while sneaking. A placed knight protects its owner, attacks anything that hurts the player and assists the player in combat. Some weapons and achievements tie to specific kills and events: slaying the Ender Dragon or the Wither, defeating a raid, curing a zombie villager, and killing hostile mobs.
Myth & Magic requires Fabric API. Patchouli, EMI and Jade are optional. The mod runs on Fabric and Quilt, and the files cover the game versions 1.20 – 1.20.4, with 1.0.0+mc1.20.4 as the latest Fabric build. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source.

What the author says
Myth & Magic adds more magic systems (runes and spells) and some mythology inspired weapons and items. Excalibur is bound to a player, does not break, and can be summoned (default key: I) if lost. Task of Worthiness
