Wardenage
by Bubobaric
Wardenage spawns a Warden in response to a set of player actions, such as placing blocks or hitting entities and blocks.
What it does
The Warden is spawned by the mod when a player performs certain actions. The author notes that the spawn triggers on several kinds of action, including placing blocks, hitting entities and hitting blocks. Because the trigger is tied to play rather than to the world, a Warden can appear in places where vanilla would not produce one.
Installation requires Fabric only. The mod is released under the MIT License, which is not open source, and its files cover four game versions, 1.21.1 – 1.21.4, with 1.1 for 1.21.4 as the latest file. It is client-side only, so a player adds it alone and a server does not need it. Builds were first published and last updated on 2025-02-27.
Key features
Warden spawns from actions
Certain player actions cause a Warden to spawn, so its appearance depends on what the player does.
Placing blocks triggers spawns
Placing blocks is one of the actions that can summon a Warden in the world.
Hitting entities triggers spawns
Striking an entity can also cause a Warden to appear, adding a combat-linked trigger.
Hitting blocks triggers spawns
Breaking or striking blocks is another action that can bring a Warden into play.

Latest build for each game version and loader.

Use cases
Triggering Wardens during play
Players who want Wardens to show up through ordinary building and combat can use the action triggers instead of commands.
Who it’s for: Players of Fabric 1.21.1 – 1.21.4 who want Wardens to appear through in-game actions rather than from natural spawning or commands.
How it compares
Harder Wardens is a server-side only Fabric mod under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 or later, open source, for 1.21.11 – 26.3, so it targets a later version range than Wardenage. Warden Tweaks is also server-side only and not open source, released under All rights reserved for 1.21.4 – 26.2, which overlaps Wardenage only at 1.21.4.
