Voidstain Hypoidol
by Phanastrae
Voidstain Hypoidol is a Fabric mob mod in which eldritch paintings are populated with horrors that must be fed, and their output can be collected by entering the paintings.
What it does
Eldritch paintings hold horrors that remain hungry no matter how much food they are given. A player places an eldritch painting, sets it up with the listed items, and offers food to create a morsel that the horrors feed on. Fed horrors produce qualia, a resource that cannot be reached in the normal world. Qualia is collected by entering a painting, which carries the player into the two-dimensional hypoverse behind it.
Painting portals connect one painting to another, and a hypergate lets paintings be entered from a distance. Clearing hypo-entities and portals removes the mod's additions from a world. Items such as blaze powder, ghast tears, ender pearls and fire charges are used in the setup and the feeding steps. The mod is published for Fabric only, for game version 26.1.2, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source.
The mod's author describes its survival use as unpolished, with the behaviour listed here planned to change in future updates. Source code and an issue tracker are public.

What the author says
Voidstain Hypoidol adds ELDRITCH PAINTINGS, which can be populated with HORRORS. By feeding the HORRORS in the PAINTINGS, they will then produce 'QUALIA'.
