Nice Illusioner
by NiceRon
Nice Illusioner brings back the Illusioner mob from the older Minecraft releases, in a form that suits a server setup.
What it does
The mod restores an Illusioner experience that the current game no longer offers, aimed at players who want the older feel of the mob. Server owners running Paper or a fork such as Purpur are expected to enable one scoreboard option in the Paper configuration so the mob behaves as intended. The server must run the mod, while a client may leave it out. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 1.21.3 and 1.21.4, with 1.1+mod for 1.21.4 as the latest file. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.

What the author says
But if you are playing on a PaperMC Server (or a PaperMC Fork like Purpur) make sure to set allow-non-player-entities-on-scoreboards in your paper config files to true in order for everything to work properly.
