Plot Armor Mod
by DEAMJAVA
Plot Armor lets a server administrator make chosen characters invulnerable, so a scripted story can run as planned on a Fabric server.
What it does
An administrator can grant specific players complete invulnerability, so a character cannot be killed during an important moment. The protection lasts until the administrator removes it, which keeps key characters alive for roleplay, lore events and scripted boss fights. The mod is aimed at story-driven survival servers, adventure maps and cinematic or machinima productions where the plot depends on certain players surviving.
Players cannot tell the mod is present; only the server runs it. Plot Armor is server-side only, so players join without installing it. The mod targets 26.2 only, with a single Fabric build 1.0+26.2 dated 2026-07-17, and it needs Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin to start. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. The project publishes its source code.
Key features
Grant invulnerability
Administrators give a named player complete invulnerability, so that player cannot be killed until the protection is removed.
Protect key characters
Characters stay alive through scenes that must not end in death, such as scripted boss fights or lore events.
Three commands
Protection is managed through three commands, so the setup needs little configuration.
Live server events
Protection can be switched on during a live event, letting a running server stage a planned story.

Use cases
Story-driven SMPs
Roleplay servers that follow a written plot can keep main characters alive for the whole storyline.
Cinematics and machinima
Filmed productions can keep a featured player alive through every take of a scene.
Who it’s for: Server owners and administrators running roleplay, lore-heavy or adventure servers, and creators filming machinima on a Fabric server.
How it compares
FabricPlots is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, with Fabric files for 1.21.1 – 26.3, so it covers a wider version range than this mod. MwonMod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, but it is client-side only, so it is installed on players' machines rather than the server. Plot Armor is the only option here that is server-side only and built for 26.2 alone.
