Occultism
by klikli-dev
Occultism adds a ritual magic system built on summonable spirits that players call from another dimension through occult rituals.
What it does
Players begin by crafting the Dictionary of Spirits, a guide that explains the ritual system and walks through the first summon. Spirits, also called demons, are called from a place known as The Other Place. Their work covers automated tasks, large item storage, mining in void dimensions, enchanted tools and jewelry, and support from familiars.
The mod is inspired by Jonathan Stroud's Bartimaeus books. Otherworld groves are hidden in the world and can be found after a player gains the Third Eye. Required dependencies are Curios API, Geckolib, Modonomicon and SmartBrainLib. Optional dependencies are EMI, Just Enough Items (JEI), Magic Particles Lib and Theurgy. Occultism runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge across 14 release versions, 1.18.2 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
