WOT Magic
by Lprogrammer
WOT Magic is a data pack that adds a spell system inspired by the Wheel of Time series, with nearly 50 spells across five elements.
What it does
Spells are cast through the data pack and draw on strengths that are randomized when a player first joins. A strength system caps how much magic a player can use, so casting cannot continue without limit. Abilities can be combined from the five elements, and certain objects increase the effect of spells. Chat shows visual feedback when a spell is cast, and players can see what others are doing.
Spell effects range from damage and destruction to ways of disabling another player's magic, annoying entities, granting the caster advantages and teleportation. Because the spells can be made smaller or larger and combined, the number of possible combinations is high. The pack is described as compatible with survival gameplay. Server owners need to install it, because the environment is server required with client optional.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, across 20 release versions 1.20.4 – 26.3 under the MIT License. Its source code is open source and public links exist for the source, the issue tracker and a wiki.
