Origins: Block Staff
by Ten_Mic_10
With Origins: Block Staff installed, a player picks an origin and then receives a staff built from a block such as iron, gold, diamond or netherite.
What it does
Each staff is tied to a block material and gives its holder a set of abilities. The staffs are crafted and enchanted at work stations, and an enchanted staff recharges faster. Holding a staff and using its secondary action triggers the power, and switching staffs changes which power is active. Selecting an origin also gives the player a hat colour that differs from other players' hats.
The mod depends on Origins and on Resource Pack: Block Staffs, both of which must be present. Origins supplies the origin system the staffs plug into, and the resource pack supplies the textures. Origins is also an optional dependency on Forge. The staffs are meant for survival and adventure play, and the piglin head and command block content extend the set of crafting options.
The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. The server must run it, but a player may add it or leave it out, since a client does not depend on it. Builds cover 1.19 – 1.20.2, with the latest file for 1.20.2 published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. A data pack version is also offered for servers.

What the author says
For this to work, you need the Origins Mod. You can choose a different character to become your origin to experience Minecraft. This Origin is Coded in 1.10.0 of origin, so for other versions or forge version, there may having bugs that not expected.
