Wither Star Trinkets [Portable Beacons]

Wither Star Trinkets collects beacon effects into portable trinket items, so a player can keep a beacon-style power in the trinket slot instead of placing a beacon block. The author describes the goal as filling a gap in Minecraft's equipment progression, where active gear such as a totem, Elytra and rockets is limited and beacon powers stay tied to a fixed structure. The three items are crafted from a beacon, a Nether Star, a block of iron, gold, emerald, diamond or netherite, and obsidian, or from a de-activated Nether Star with crying obsidian, obsidian and blaze powder, or with a Totem of Undying, hay bales and emeralds.

The Wither boss drops the Nether Star that starts these recipes, and the trinkets provide the boss's beacon effects except jump boost, with Fire Resistance substituted for it. Using the items costs durability and a cooldown. The mod runs on Forge for 1.20.1 and is released as 1.1 with the file dated 2025-01-27. Players who also use CURIOS Equipment Slots Compatibility will find that a future update is planned for it. The environment is client and server, so both the server and every player need the mod, and it is published under All rights reserved, not as open source.
