Rether
by Gardon
Rether is a Magic mod for Forge and NeoForge that adds a separate island world, its hostile mobs and bosses, and a menu for special skills.
What it does
Rether adds a new island world with its own vegetation, trees and flora. A player starts on one lonely island and finds the others by locating a teleporter and stepping onto it. Many of the new hostile mobs and bosses are dangerous, while some mobs are slightly friendlier and a few can be ridden once tamed. Shroomlight, fire, Flint and Gold are among the materials used to build and prepare. The author suggests drinking a Golden Elixir after teleporting. Further discoveries are left to the player.
The mod also includes a menu opened with the Z key, where a player can give themselves special skills. Its items are provided and managed through slots in that menu, so the right items can be placed there. Rether requires GeckoLib, and the bosses should be fought only once well prepared, because otherwise things go badly. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with Forge 1.0.4 and NeoForge 1.1.1 as the latest releases. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Adventure Time And Craft is a Forge mod for 1.20.1, client-side only and released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, so servers can run without it. Survival Island is server-side only, open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 1.21.1. Epic Bosses runs on client and server under the MIT License for Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 1.21.1, which makes it the closest match for the bosses.
