Trickery
by TetchWolf
Halloween arrives in the world with Trickery, which adds candies, a possessed mob and a new villager profession to Forge 1.20.1.
What it does
Trickery is a Halloween-themed mod. Candies are a new food type, and players obtain them in several ways: from glowroot caves, from possessed mobs at a rare chance, or by trading with a new villager profession, the candy maker. Defeating a new enemy and trading with a wandering trader also yield candies.
The candy maker offers rarer trades once the villager reaches its last level, and a Man (the profession's rare trade) is among what it can offer. Candies carry several new effects, among them Ecstasy and Golden Rush. The Eater Tool Set is a set of tools that eat sweets from the player's inventory to restore durability, and the tools stay durable.
Trickery runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, with 1.0.0 as the latest file (2024-10-29). The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
