Pathfinder Origins

by Rabenwacht

Pathfinder Origins brings Pathfinder-style origins, classes and powers to NeoForge, drawing on the Neo Origins framework for character choices.

NeoForgeServer required, client optionalMIT License1.21 – 1.21.1

What it does

Players pick an origin, a class and a background that together set their powers, items and starting gear, following the structure of the Pathfinder tabletop role-playing game. Classes and their powers are taken from the WotR class set, and deities add roleplay flavour to a character. Backgrounds bring utility items and food into the early game.

The mod needs Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks and Neo Origins to run. Iron's Spells supplies the spellbook magic that several classes draw on, and Neo Origins provides the origin system the mod builds on. Farmer's Delight, Immersive Melodies, Simply More, Simply Swords and Supplementaries are optional and add their own content when installed. The mod works without icons, and the equipment requirement is handled through the bundled options. Files target 1.21 – 1.21.1 on NeoForge, and a data pack build is also published for the same versions.

Key features

  1. Pathfinder-based origins

    Character origins follow the Pathfinder tabletop game, giving each character a background that shapes early choices.

  2. Classes and powers

    Each class grants its own set of powers and items, with the WotR classes as the basis for the class list.

  3. Spellbook magic

    Classes can use spellbooks from Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks, so spell casting fits within the class system.

  4. Deities and flavour

    Deities are included as roleplay flavour, letting players tie a character to a faith without changing its mechanics.
