Something Mod by Knurv
by knurvmsm
Something Mod by Knurv adds a new mob called Something and a set of Blackdust items that players craft from what the mob drops, for NeoForge 1.21.8.
What it does
The mod introduces the Something mob as its first new creature, and the whole mod is built around it. Killing the mob yields Blackdust, the material used for most of the crafted gear. Entering the Blackdust area requires a Blackdust Activator, which the mod provides as one of its key items.
Blackdust gear covers tools and weapons, including a pickaxe and a sword, and it can be upgraded further with a Blackdust Upgrade made in a smithing table. The mod is published for NeoForge only, with files for 1.21.8, and it is not open source: its All rights reserved license covers the code and assets. The server and every player need the mod installed.

How it compares
Unga Bunga is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.8 – 1.21.11, also client and server, under All rights reserved. Knightartorias7's Dimensions is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.4 only, also client and server, under All rights reserved. Every Mob Drops differs in environment: it is server required with the client optional, and it covers Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.20 – 26.3. Something Mod is limited to NeoForge and 1.21.8, so it reaches fewer loaders and versions than Every Mob Drops.
