Sekiro - Warden Curse
by mixst
Sekiro - Warden Curse adds Forge combat arts inspired by the Sekiro games, with moves such as Shadow Rush, Dragon Flash and Whirlwind Slash, plus a Prosthetic tool set.
What it does
The mod adds a set of Prosthetic tools and combat arts modeled on the Sekiro series. Each art is a separate move a player triggers in combat, including Shadow Rush, Sakura Dance, Ashina Cross, and the movement and strike arts that follow. The arts give melee play a set of distinct options rather than a single attack pattern.
Only the server needs the mod installed, so players join a server that runs it without adding anything themselves. The mod is published for Forge and targets 1.20.1, with the latest Forge file, 1.2.5.2, dated 2025-08-31. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
The files were first published on 2024-08-09, and the mod's category list places it under Magic, Equipment, Game mechanics, Cursed and Mobs.
Key features
Prosthetic tools
Prosthetic tools serve as the items that carry the combat arts, giving each art a physical source in the player's inventory.
Movement arts
Shadow Rush and the other movement-based arts cover ground quickly during a fight.
Area and strike arts
Whirlwind Slash, Ashina Cross and Sakura Dance are arts built around wide or multi-hit attacks.
Mortal Draw and One Mind
Mortal Draw and One Mind are finishing and focus arts, each taking its own trigger and timing within the set.

Use cases
Melee-focused survival
Players who want a sword-based playstyle on a server can add the arts to their melee options without changing the rest of the game.
Who it’s for: Server owners running a Forge 1.20.1 world who want a Sekiro-style combat option. Players only need to join the server, since the mod is server-side only.
How it compares
Simple Curses is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 that runs on client and server and is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Lord of Warden is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that runs on client and server under the MIT License and is open source. Sekiro - Warden Curse differs from both by being server-side only and by covering only 1.20.1.
