Roguelike Items
by edshearing
Roguelike Items adds dungeon loot whose effects apply passively while the item sits in the player's inventory, drawn from the items found in the mod's new roguelike dungeon structures.
What it does
Roguelike Items spawns new dungeon structures in the world, and the items found inside them carry unique effects. Each item works passively once it is in the inventory, so a player does not need to hold or use it for the effect to apply. Several effects respond to combat and health: taking damage can restore part of the damage taken after a short delay, and falling below three hearts can grant a burst of extra hearts or freeze time briefly. Other effects include a permanent dolphin's grace, underwater breathing near the surface, lightning that can strike a target, and a fire effect that burns enemies nearby.
The mod is built for NeoForge and targets only 1.21.4, with its latest file 1.0.2 published on 2026-07-05. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is released under All rights reserved, which means it is not open source. The mod is a magic and adventure addition, and its effects stack when a player collects duplicates.
