Terra Originum
by Smithy
Terra Originum adds origin choices to Fabric worlds for 1.20.1, with Origins and several companion mods as its base.
What it does
Players pick an origin that gives a set of abilities and traits, and each origin's description can be read in the in-game wiki, which the author keeps updated. Some origins change the player's size through Pehkui, and some custom armour is rendered with Geckolib. Icarus supplies part of the origin content, and Origins is the base that the other origins are built on.
The mod is client and server, so a server and every player need it. Required dependencies are Geckolib, Icarus, Origins and Pehkui. Origins Extra Keybinds is listed as incompatible. Files exist for Fabric only, and the only game version is 1.20.1, with 1.20.1-1.0.15 as the latest build from 2025-12-25. The code is covered by All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The project was first published on 2024-06-08. The author is planning more origins, since most current ones lean toward gameplay bias.
