Soulbound Enchantment
by iMoonDay
Soulbound Enchantment adds one enchantment that keeps the items it marks in the player's inventory after death.
What it does
Items carrying the soulbound enchantment stay with the player when they die, so they are not dropped on the ground. The enchantment is provided through a book, and the mod's configuration lets server owners decide how much durability marked items lose at each death, or turn that loss off entirely. Durability is left untouched in Creative mode and when the game's inventory-keeping rule is active. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 9 release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.21.1, and both the server and every player need it.
Key features
Soulbound enchantment
One enchantment keeps marked items in the inventory after the player dies.
Random durability loss
Marked items can lose durability at random on death, and the amount is set in the configuration.
Configurable durability
Setting the durability loss to 0 disables it, so marked items keep their full durability.
