Various Witches
by Burkey77
Various Witches adds several custom witch mobs to the Minecraft world, each with its own attacks and potions, for Forge on 1.20.1.
What it does
Various Witches adds several witch variants, among them an undead witch that supports squads in the overworld and a Piglin Witch that spawns in the nether. The Piglin Witch sits in a common structure, the Piglin Witch Cathedral, built on the upper parts of the nether and laid out as an arena with lava pools that a player has to keep clear of. A block lets villagers adopt different witch schools to defend their village.
The mod requires Geckolib and SmartBrainLib, which must be installed next to it on Forge. The server and every player need the mod installed. Its source code is public under the MIT License, and the latest file is 0.1-beta for 1.20.1, a beta release published on 2025-09-21.
Key features
Custom witch potions
Each witch variant uses its own unique potions, which the player can also brew after collecting the ingredients.
Piglin Witch attacks
The Piglin Witch throws combustive flasks at close range, shoots combustion arrows that speed up as they fly, and launches itself at a player with a propulsion potion.
Crimson Truffle crop
The Piglin Witch drops Crimson Truffle Spores on death, which can be planted in soul sand as a new nether crop.
Crimson Truffle brewing
Crimson Truffles are used to brew a new type of potion, and the Piglin Witch's food can be turned into stew.
