SCP-323, Wendigo Skull
by Zcoper
SCP-323 is a Forge mob from Zcoper that adds a wendigo skull and the creature it becomes, drawn from the SCP universe.
What it does
Wendigo Skull adds a mob based on SCP-323, the anomaly referred to as the Wendigo Skull in the SCP universe. The anomaly exists in two connected states: a seemingly harmless skull that can move, damage itself and slowly walk or leap away, and a mobile manifested form called SCP-323-1. A player who stays within eight blocks of the skull for too long is influenced, taking damage, growing hungry and suffering uncontrolled arm movements, and touching SCP-323 itself ends the player's life.
The anomaly is only held back by hunger for a time and always comes back. Killing SCP-323-1 makes the skull drop again, so the cycle can begin once more. Only one instance of SCP-323 exists in a world, and it appears when a wendigo skull is picked up and placed.
The mod requires Geckolib and is published for Forge on Minecraft 1.19.2 – 1.20.1, with files for 1.19.2, 1.19.4 and 1.20.1. It is installed on both client and server. The code is licensed as All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source. It was created with MCreator.
Key features
Wendigo skull lure
The anomalous skull lures victims close to it, and consumes and starves them while they stay.
Hunter stage
After it evolves, the creature stalks players and villagers, with its strength tied to recent feeding.
Respawn cycle
Killing SCP-323-1 causes the skull to drop again, so the encounter can repeat.
Single instance
Only one SCP-323 exists at a time, and it appears once a wendigo skull is picked up and placed.
