Owl on a jump rope
by deforce
Owl on a jump rope adds a Cursed-themed Fabric item set built around an owl that skips rope, based on the horseman death cult meme that spread in 2026.
What it does
The mod adds an Owl Jumping Rope card that drops from the owl and sits in its own creative tab, so players can find all three of its items in one place. Two crafting recipes produce the items, with a paper ring placed around redstone and another placed around a book. Deck cards can be used eight times before they are spent, and the Uno Reverse Card is included among them.
The mod is built on the meme itself, so its items are meant for players who know the joke and want to add it to a world. Players can look the meme up in the mod's own text, and the card item explains where the joke comes from. It runs on the client and on the server, so both sides need the mod installed to see the items and their behaviour in a multiplayer world.
Owl on a jump rope targets Fabric for game version 26.2, with the latest file v1.1 released on 2026-07-12. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Owl Jumping Rope card
A card that drops from the owl when it is defeated, and the central item of the set.
Deck cards with limited uses
Deck cards last eight uses each before they are used up, so a set runs out over time.
Uno Reverse Card
A reverse card included with the deck cards, named after the card game.
Creative tab and recipes
All three items share a dedicated creative tab, and two recipes craft them from paper rings around redstone and a book.
