Touhou Little Maid: Beacon
Touhou Little Maid: Beacon lets a maid carry a beacon in her helmet slot, so the block's effect aura moves with her across the area she works in.
What it does
Holding a beacon and right-clicking a maid equips it in her helmet slot. The beacon block is then rendered above her head, and the rendering can be turned off in the configuration. A maid carries a beacon level that starts at 0, and the level is raised by upgrading her with iron, gold and diamond blocks at levels 1, 2 and 3. Higher levels allow more effect auras and a larger total Cost.
Each aura is a beacon-like effect that the maid applies to players and other entities nearby. The player chooses which aura to enable or disable. Activating an aura consumes a fixed amount of Cost tied to that aura, and the total available Cost depends on the maid's current beacon level, which limits how many auras can be active at once. The Ender Dragon is among the entity types the auras can affect, and the configuration file controls the rules, costs and entity types.
The mod requires Touhou Little Maid, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, under the BSD 3-Clause License, and the source code is public.
Key features
Mobile beacon maids
A maid equipped with a beacon acts as a moving source of buffs for nearby players and entities.
Three upgrade levels
Iron, gold and diamond blocks raise the maid's beacon level from 1 to 3, with stronger auras at each step.
Cost-limited auras
Each active aura uses a Cost value, and the maid's beacon level sets the total Cost that can be spent.

Configurable rendering
The beacon beam above the maid's head can be shown or hidden, and the rules are set in a configuration file.
