I know, I have just released this mod, but I will be issuing an UPDATE with updated graphics on all blocks, weapons, and tails, made Merfolk more lifelike, added new tail Variants, larger City-like Merkingdoms with more merfolks and mercritters. I am just working on stabillity and sheer data size of the overall mod. Well I just uploaded it!

*** REQUIRES CURIOUS MOD ***
**Works with Lootr Mod**

Dive into Tidebound, an underwater adventure mod that brings merfolk civilizations, treasures, and new life to Minecraft’s oceans.

Explore warm coral kingdoms and the icy settlements of Frostveil. Meet their inhabitants, uncover treasures, and face the dangers lurking beyond their borders.

Explore the Merkingdoms

Discover four kingdom themes: Coral, Pearl, Deep, and Frostveil. Explore underwater settlements filled with distinctive building materials, decorations, and kingdom-themed loot.

Become Part of the Ocean

Craft magical necklaces that grant your character a mermaid tail. Discover different tail styles and explore the seas alongside merfolk, guards, and underwater wildlife.

Adventure Beneath the Waves

Build your reputation, recruit merfolk companions, and follow quests that connect the kingdoms. Encounter sea witches and hostile Dreadfin mermaids as you venture into more dangerous waters.

Build Your Underwater Home

Decorate with coral building blocks, ocean plants, glowing lamps, shell furniture, and themed chests. Use the in-game guidebook to learn more about Tidebound’s world.
