Soul Siphon
Soul Siphon lets players extract souls from trapped soul-block prisons using a modified Pointed Dripstone, then choose what to do with the freed souls.
What it does
Soul Siphon is a Magic mod that adds a modified Pointed Dripstone for drawing souls out of soul-block prisons. Some players release the freed souls, while others keep them to power their own purposes. Souls extracted above a Sculk Catalyst are converted into more Sculk, and a new Sculk Cauldron block can store souls for later crafting. Soul Sand can also be turned into other soul-related materials through vanilla-like recipes.
Installation needs no dependencies. Both the server and each player must run it, since it is a client and server mod. Soul Siphon is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 8 release versions, 1.19.4 – 1.21.1, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. The latest files target 1.21.1 and date from 2024-11-23.

How it compares
SoulGuard is a Fabric mod for 1.19.3 – 1.21.1, released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and server-side only, so players join without installing it. Soul Siphon instead needs both client and server, so every player must run it. Enhanced Soul Speed is server-side only for Fabric and Forge across 1.20.2 – 1.21.10 under the MIT License, and it does not add souls extraction or Sculk mechanics.
