Spiritual Come Back (SCB)

After respawning, the character becomes a temporary spirit for 120 seconds under the Panicked Spirit effect. During that time it gains Speed II, Fire Resistance and Slow Falling, and takes a ghostly appearance, so the trip back to the grave is quicker and safer. The spirit state is not complete protection: if an attacker strikes while Panicked Spirit is active, a Spiritual Protection effect grants temporary Spiritual Armor that absorbs further damage until the belongings are retrieved or the effect runs out.

A Spiritual Flower appears where the player died. Staying close to it ends the spiritual effects early, which is the main choice for anyone who wants to stop the timer. Breaking the flower gives a 50% chance of Spooky Advantage, which heals over 15 seconds after surviving whatever killed the player, and a 5% chance of Mysterious Force instead. The armor set has three pieces, and the mod includes a configuration file where its behavior can be adjusted.
