Soul Craft
by MILK_YT
Soul Craft turns the souls of fallen mobs into a crafting resource, so a Soul Collector gathers essence from enemies and the player can refine it into materials for new tools and artifacts.
What it does
Soul Craft adds a magic path built on soul energy. Defeated zombies, skeletons and even creepers leave behind souls that outlandish collector mechanisms gather over time. Smelting the collected souls in a furnace yields Soul Powder, which serves as the base for further recipes. Combining the powder with ordinary iron ingots produces a Soul Ingot, a material whose properties are not fully described by the mod text.
The mod opens a set of crafted items built on those ingots. The Priest's Scythe is the central weapon. It is made from two iron ingots, two sticks and one Soul Ingot, and it has two properties: a blow can leave an enemy dizzied and briefly out of control, and an Illumination effect makes affected enemies glow, so they stay visible in pitch darkness. Upgraded Soul Collectors, including versions made from Diamond and Non-Cerite, extend the same loop.
The mod is set to client and server, so the server and every player need it. The license is All rights reserved, which means the code is not open source.
Key features
Soul Collectors
Collectors gather essence from hostile mobs over time, and upgraded versions made from Diamond or Non-Cerite gather more.
Soul Powder and Soul Ingot
Smelting collected souls yields Soul Powder, and combining the powder with iron ingots makes a Soul Ingot used in crafting.
Priest's Scythe
A melee weapon with a dizzying knockback effect that can leave enemies briefly out of control after a hit.
Enemy Illumination
A glow effect applied to struck enemies keeps them visible even in pitch darkness, making night fights easier to track.

How it compares
Soul Gauntlet is another Forge mod for 1.20.1, set to client and server and released under All rights reserved, so it needs the same installation on both sides. Opal's Silly Scythes also targets Forge 1.20.1 under All rights reserved, but it centers on scythes rather than soul collection. UnderCraft targets Forge 1.20.1 under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and is client-side only, so servers can run without it. Soul Craft covers souls, Soul Powder and the Priest's Scythe instead.
