About this project

What does Specter Companion add?

A Specter is the equivalent to a "Ghost" from the videogame Destiny (2014); they follow the player, guarding them from death and healing them when the player's health is low, or removing toxins (Poison).

Getting a Specter

  1. Find a Specter Core in a Jungle Pyramid or Desert Temple.
  2. Craft a Condensed Specter with a Specter Core, copper ingots, and some wool.
  3. Right-click with the item in hand to summon your Specter!

Behavior

  • Prevents the player from dying (under most circumstances).
  • Heals the player quickly when their health drops too low (below half).
  • Zombies/Husk/Drowned have a percent chance to spawn with a Specter (configurable)
  • The Condensed Specter can be dyed like leather armor, or renamed in an anvil!
