Words Added
by Knarfy
Words Added changes how a set of Minecraft items, mobs and features are named and behave, mostly through silly joke content for players who like goofy modded worlds.
What it does
The mod adds words that Minecraft features completely change in meaning, so familiar items take on new, playful roles. Players can rename some items with the added words, and the rename is permanent: a renamed item cannot be changed back after the modded version has been obtained. Content includes a Pogo Stick with a broken enchantment that can reach level 255, and a Bed Bug that players can ride while it lies down.
The weapon line runs from a Claymore to a Giant Sword, then a Terracottamore Giant Sword with more damage and a Glazed Terracottamore Giant Sword with even more. Hot Water Pools and a Fools Gold Pickaxe round out the themed items, and unique advancements make the progression goofier. Words Added is published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.8, and it is released under the MIT License, so it is not open source. The server and every player need the mod installed.
