Void Totem
by Affehund
With Void Totem in a main or offhand slot, a player who falls into the void is teleported back to the surface instead of dying.
What it does
The mod adds a Totem of Void Undying that is crafted and then carried in the main or offhand slot. When the holder falls into the void, the totem sends them back up to the surface. The mod is aimed at situations such as an elytra breaking mid-flight over the End, or a fall while building in SkyBlock-style worlds.
Void Totem runs on client and server, so both sides need it. It requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API on Fabric, and it is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 12 release versions, 1.15.2 – 1.21.1, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. The code is open source, and public links exist for the source, the issue tracker and the wiki. Configured, Curios API and Trinkets are optional dependencies, and snapshot builds are not part of the release list.
Key features
Void Undying totem
A craftable totem that triggers when the player falls into the void and returns them to the surface.
Hand slot activation
The totem works from either the main hand or the offhand, so it stays ready without a dedicated slot.
Void fall recovery
Falls into the void are reversed by teleporting the holder back to the surface at the point of return.

Use cases
Elytra flight in the End
A player who loses an elytra over the void can fall without losing the run, since the totem returns them to the surface.
SkyBlock building
Builders on floating islands can step off an edge while placing blocks and be carried back up.
Who it’s for: Players who fly over the End or build on floating islands, and server owners running SkyBlock or modded modpacks where falls into the void are common.
