Spectral Pals
by genr234
Spectral Pals adds small ghostly creatures that spawn after a player dies and fight nearby monsters for a short time.
What it does
Spectral Pals adds small ghost companions that appear after a player dies and attack hostile mobs close by. Upgrade orbs, dropped by monsters, spawners and chests, can be used to strengthen the pals, and those upgrades persist. The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Fabric is the only loader, with files for 1.21.8 and 1.21.9 and the MIT License, and the source code is public.
