Talismans
by Lunakibby
Talismans adds wearable charms that grant abilities and effects to the player who holds them, from world-shifting powers to small combat and survival boosts.
What it does
Each talisman is an item that takes effect while it sits in the player's hand or inventory, and several can apply at once. Some let the holder collect blocks normally out of reach, such as Bedrock, Reinforced Deepslate and End Portal Frames. Others change how the game reports the world, letting the holder see through the night or phase blocks out of existence. A few reward fighting and travel, for example by making ranged weapons usable from the off hand or by condensing air into a single random creature.
Talismans is built for Forge and NeoForge across 11 release versions, 1.16.5 – 1.21.8, and has no required dependencies. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is shared under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license, which is not open source, and the mod was first published on 2025-04-04 and last updated on 2025-12-01.
Key features
Collecting out-of-reach blocks
A talisman lets the holder break blocks that are normally uncollectable, including Bedrock and End Portal Frames.
Mending and durability
One talisman occasionally repairs damage taken by the armour the holder wears, and another restores tools that are being used.
Vision and world-shifting powers
Talismans grant night vision by day and a shift in how blocks appear, along with other changes to the world around the holder.
Combat and defence boosts
Talismans increase the holder's resilience to damage and help with ranged attacks, including use of a ranged weapon in the off hand.
Endgame talismans
A set of endgame talismans adds stronger artifacts with buffs meant for late-game play.
