What it does

The mod is based on the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga and anime by Hirohiko Araki and centers on three supernatural systems. Stands are spiritual manifestations that usually appear as a figure beside the user, and each Stand has its own abilities and limits. Hamon is a breathing-based energy whose main use is against undead creatures, and vampirism gives the player strength, blood-fed power and a weakness to sunlight.

Its stated goal is to place these abilities into survival gameplay so that players have more freedom and can use them creatively. Several player actions use new poses and animations, which require the playerAnimator and bendy-lib dependencies. The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, is required by 23 other catalog mods, and has Forge files for 1.16.5 only, with 0.2.2.2 as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Stand powers

    Stand powers are available as separate abilities, each with its own set of strengths and physical limits.

  2. Hamon training

    Hamon is learned from a teacher, either a Hamon Master mob in mountain temples or another player who already uses it.

  3. Vampire transformation

    A Stone Mask found in jungle pyramids turns its wearer into a vampire once blood is drawn, and vampires can pass part of their power on.

  4. Stand Arrows

    Stand powers are granted by Stand Arrows, which come from a crafted meteorite recipe or from desert pyramids.

  5. Additional Stands

    The Hand, Stone Free, Kraft Work and Aqua Necklace are included through an addon by DanielGamer321.
