The Follower Mod
The Follower Mod adds one mob that players can tame or hire with emeralds, and its stats rise with experience.
What it does
The mod adds a single creature that players can tame or hire, and it is the only addition the author describes as a simple mod. Players tame or hire the creature with emeralds, and each upgrade of its stats uses experience, at 10 levels per upgrade. Golden apples and inventory saving on death are listed among the features. The mod requires Geckolib and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1, with the latest, 1.0.0, dated 2024-05-31, and the code is under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
