Nature's Catalysis
by kleiders3010
Nature's Catalysis lets players combine weapon pieces, drawn from nature mobs, into custom Natural Weapons with special abilities.
What it does
Weapon pieces are gathered from nature mobs and assembled at a Natural Weapon Crafting Station. Each piece can add to the weapon's base stats, and most carry a unique ability. Pieces combine with one another without a fixed limit, so a player can mix and match parts and build a weapon that suits their play.
The mod starts early: after iron is obtained, a player can begin crafting Natural Weapons, which requires Sharp Scissors. Changing a single piece alters the effect of the finished weapon, and some effects work together with others. Damaged weapons can be repaired with pieces, restoring half of the durability per piece used.
Patchouli is an optional dependency. When it is installed, a guide book is given to the player on first join, and it explains how to begin creating Natural Weapons. The mod is installed on the client and the server, and is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1.

Use cases
Early-game weapon crafting
Players who have reached iron can start building Natural Weapons once they have Sharp Scissors.
Experimenting with builds
Because pieces mix freely, players can test different combinations and watch how one change alters the effect.
Who it’s for: Players who enjoy building their own weapons from parts, and server owners who run Forge 1.20.1 with a shared crafting progression. The mod is for both sides, so every player on a server needs it.
