Message banners can be customized:

- Each banner can be customized via banner styles inside
/assets/<namespace>/smb_styles/[banner_style].json - "ENTITY FELLED" messages appear for all mobs tagged with
#forge:bossesor#c:bosses. You may also add custom entities and other triggers via datapacks inside/data/<namespace>/smb_triggers/[arbitrary_name].json. - Clients can blacklist certain triggers via config, in
<namespace>:trigger_idformat
You may look on how to customize the banner styles here.
Message banners can also be sent via commands, and ive also added light kubejs support which adds a single method:
MessageBannerAPI.send(player, "text", "souls_message_banners:default")
