Ring of the Hundred Curses
by KalebLangley
Ring of the Hundred Curses is a Forge challenge mod for 1.20.1 that attaches a configurable set of 100 curses to survival, combat, exploration and trading.
What it does
Each curse changes a single part of normal play. Tools can stop working at a critical moment, armor sets may slow the wearer, villagers may be harder to trade with, and mobs can react to walls and water in unexpected ways.
The mod is built for players who want a difficult run rather than a standard one. Curses are configured independently, so a server owner or player can pick a gentler mix or enable the harsher ones. Settings can be changed through a Cloth Config screen or by editing the configuration file directly. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
Installation requires Forge for 1.20.1, Cloth Config API and Curios API. Ring of the Hundred Curses runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The latest file is 1.0 for 1.20.1, published on 2026-08-12.
Key features
100 independent curses
The curse list touches fighting, digging, getting around, water travel, rest, enchanting, bartering, angling, crop tending, meal preparation, gateways and map travel.
Cloth Config screen
Curses can be turned on, off or tuned in an in-game configuration screen built on Cloth Config.
Direct file editing
Every curse can also be set by editing the configuration file, which suits server owners managing a shared world.
Changed mob behavior
Several curses alter how mobs spawn, path and respond to the player, so familiar tactics stop working.

How it compares
Cody's Curses is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that is client and server and published under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Remove my Curse! is also Forge and client and server for 1.20.1, under All rights reserved and not open source, and it works as a command to remove curses. Blessing of Pandora is open source under the MIT License and runs on Forge for 1.20.1 as a client and server mod, so it is the closer match on licensing.
