taoist_with_15_dogs
by wgdnkns
taoist_with_15_dogs adds Taoist instruments and artifact modules to NeoForge 1.21.1, built around controlling undead creatures.
What it does
Crafting starts with sakura wood, which is used to make a sakura wood board and then cinnabar. Cinnabar combines with a stick and sakura wood board to produce a peach wood sword, one of the weapons in the Taoist set. Red stone, iron ingots and an ink bag are also part of the synthesis chain.
Undead control is the central mechanic. A yellow amulet paired with paper and synthesized cinnabar lets a player direct undead creatures, and three clear bells made with copper ingots serve as props for the same purpose. Empty-handed right-clicking opens a creature backpack, where a controlled creature can be given equipment. A lock command keeps an amulet focused on attacking a chosen creature.
The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with 1.2.0 as the latest file from 2026-05-23. The code is under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and is open source.
