Sculk Ruins
by ThirtyFangs
Sculk Ruins adds a new structure of sculk-covered ruins that players can find and explore in the world, with loot placed near a warden spawn.
What it does
The ruins generate as a world structure and are easier to locate than the deep ancient cities they resemble. Their loot is exclusive to them, which keeps a visit to an ancient city worthwhile for players who want the vanilla rewards. A data pack option can partly reproduce the same setup. The environment is server required, with client optional, and files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 18 release versions, 1.19 – 26.3, under All rights reserved.
Key features
New sculk structure
A sculk ruin generates in the world, offering a nearby site to find without digging through deep terrain.
Exclusive ruin loot
The ruins hold loot that is not found elsewhere, including disc fragments and enchanted items.
Warden experiments
The structure makes it simpler to set up a warden spawn and test a sculk shrieker setup in a chosen spot.

What the author says
This datapack adds a new structure: the sculk ruins, a new and easier place to sneak into and find the warden. Sculk ruins provide an exclusive loot focused on spawning the warden ourself where we wish to. Going to ancient cities still make sense tho since they still have their own exclusive loots such as disk…
