Soul lock
by oakacre41
Soul lock is a NeoForge mod that lets players lock a soul god, with a cage item and a gamerule that controls how the cage behaves.
What it does
Soul lock adds a mechanic for locking a soul god, along with a cage item used to hold it. The gamerule DoBanForCage decides whether a caged god is banned from the world, so server owners can choose how the cage affects play. Debug commands are included for testing the lock and cage behavior on a server or in a single-player world.
Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for NeoForge only, across 8 release versions, 1.21.4 – 1.21.11, under All rights reserved; the code is not open source. The latest NeoForge file is 1.8.4 for 1.21.11, published on 2026-03-01, after a first release on 2026-02-11.
