Voidheart Lock
by FrostPierce
When a Warden's darkness effect or a fall into the void would otherwise end a run, Voidheart Lock gives the player one more chance to survive, on Fabric for 1.21.11.
What it does
Voidheart Lock removes the blindness effect that the Warden applies, so the darkness it normally causes no longer hides the screen. A separate protection lets a falling player survive the void: instead of dying, the player is left with 1 point of health.
The lock itself is a timed state. While it is active, the player takes damage until natural regeneration starts again, which keeps the second chance from being free. Players who prefer a fairer way to recover from a lethal blow, while keeping survival tension intact, can use it.
The mod runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API. Both the server and every player must install it: the darkness removal works on the client, while the death lock is handled on the server. Voidheart Lock is published for Fabric Loader 0.19.2 or newer, with files for 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, and the code is all rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Warden darkness removed
The Warden's blindness effect is removed, so its darkness no longer blacks out the view.
Void survival
A player who falls into the void does not die and keeps 1 point of health.
Death lock
A lethal hit can be survived once, and the lock then drains health until natural regeneration resumes.
Regeneration cost
While locked, damage continues until the player starts regenerating naturally, so the saved life has a price.

How it compares
Earned Enchants is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 that is not open source and is released under All rights reserved, so it does not offer a second chance from death. Regma/Regenerating Magma is also Fabric for 1.21.11, but it is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license. Death Effects covers 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 and is client-side only under the MIT License, so it needs nothing on the server.
