About this project
What does Spellbound Mages add?
Spellbound Mages
One wand, many spells. Become a Pyromancer, Cryomancer, Stormcaller or Cleric, learn spells from Spell Tomes, grow your powers through a talent tree, and raid crypts and mage towers guarded by rogue mages.
Available for Fabric and NeoForge, Minecraft 1.21.1.
✨ Spells
21 spells across four elements and a neutral school, cast from a single Arcane Wand. Learn them from Spell Tomes, then switch between them on the fly.
- 🔥 Fire: Fireball, Inferno, Meteor Shower, Fire Dash
- ❄️ Ice: Frost Nova, Ice Spikes, Blizzard, Frost Slide
- ⚡ Storm: Thunder, Ball Lightning, Thunderstorm, Lightning Dash
- ☀️ Light: Healing, Purification, Divine Beam, Holy Rush
- 🌀 Arcane: Blink, Arcane Shield, Gust, Growth, Levitation
🔮 Mana
A mana bar sits over the XP bar. Every spell costs mana, and mana regenerates over time. Mana shards restore it instantly, and refined mana crystals raise your maximum mana.
🌳 Mage classes and talent tree
Pick your class and level up as a mage. One talent tree has a neutral centre and four element branches. Lore fragments unlock talents, and a Scroll of Oblivion lets you start over.
🧙 Mage gear
- Tiered robes for each class
- Rings, belts and amulets, wearable in Curios slots when Curios is installed
- Class grimoires with several tiers
🛠️ Crafting stations
- Mage Table: craft tomes and refine mana crystals
- Arcane Loom: weave mage robes
- Jeweller's Bench: make rings, belts and amulets
Every recipe is shown in JEI.
💎 Mana geodes
Underground geodes in four colours grow 3D mana crystals you can harvest.
🏰 Structures
All structures are real Minecraft structures, so /locate structure finds them.
- Mage towers, one per element: Pyromancer, Cryomancer, Stormcaller and Cleric towers, each built from its element's materials and found in its own biomes. A tower has 4 to 5 floors, a spiral staircase, a balcony and floating rocks. Its rooms are drawn at random, and one of them is a workshop holding one special crafting table.
- Arcane Crypt: a procedurally generated dungeon under a gothic chapel and graveyard. It holds 7 to 11 rooms (spawner halls, tombs, ossuaries, ruined libraries), and the Arcane Lich waits in the deepest one.
- Element shrines: fire, ice, storm and light temples, each guarded by mages of its element.
- Cultist camps: Mana Cultists mining an exposed geode.
👹 Mobs
- Rogue Pyromancers, Cryomancers, Stormcallers and Fallen Clerics, which cast real spells
- Mana Cultists
- The Arcane Lich
