The Weird Man
The Weird Man is a Forge horror mod for 1.20.1 that adds a hostile monster stalking the player, along with a biome to explore.
What it does
Players are hunted by a monster called the Weird Man, which tries to kill the player while the player tries to kill it in return. Defeating it yields its head, which serves as a strong weapon. The mod also adds a new biome to explore. Geckolib is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. The only published build is 0.0.0 for 1.20.1, an alpha, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
