🐺 Full Project Description
Overview
Starter Wolf RPG is the completely reimagined and upgraded Bukkit/Paper edition of the original StarterWolf mod. Rebuilt from the ground up for modern Minecraft servers, this version runs 100% server-side—meaning your players get custom RPG leveling, custom abilities, and mountable companion mechanics without needing any client-side mods installed!

Starter Wolf
Key Features
-
The Immortal Starter Alpha:
-
Soul-Bound: Every player begins with an immortal Alpha Wolf that enters a spirit ghost form upon fatal damage instead of perishing permanently.
-
Gigantic 5.0x Scaling: Smoothly grows from normal size up to a towering 5.0x scale beast at Level 20.
-
Native Mount: Unlock riding at Level 20—hop on with an empty hand (no saddle needed) and steer using intuitive look-based controls.
-
Canine Satchel: Built-in mobile inventory that expands as your living pack grows (up to 54 slots).
-
Pack Progression & Beta Ascension (Levels 1–20):
-
Pup-to-Beta Growth: Tamed wild wolves start as baby pups and physically mature through dynamic ranks (Pup $\rightarrow$ Juvenile $\rightarrow$ Omega $\rightarrow$ Beta).
-
Archetype Awakening: Upon reaching Beta (Level 10), wolves can ascend into one of three distinct classes (scaling up to 4.0x size at Level 20):
-
🗡️ The Shadowfang (Assassin): Inflicts Wither bleed, provides infinite shared Night Vision, and unlocks a teleporting execute on low-health targets.
-
✨ Spirit Shaman (Support): Radiates periodic healing pulses to the pack and owner, and sacrifices its energy to resurrect its master from fatal blows.
-
🐾 Bloodhound (Utility & Scout): Instantly vacuums dropped loot, highlights nearby monsters with a glowing outline, and tracks hidden ores.
-
Tactical "Pointer Dog" & Tier 0 Scent Tracking:
-
Smart Ore Sonar: The Bloodhound scans the underground and points out high-tier minerals (Ancient Debris, Diamonds, Emeralds, Gold).
-
Pointer Mode: When locked onto a target, the Bloodhound sits, glows, and casts a persistent glowing blue scent beam through solid stone walls directly to the vein.
-
Custom Scent Slot: Shift-click any placeable block into the Bloodhound's GUI to set it as a Tier 0 Priority Target—the hound will ignore everything else to find that specific block.
-
Seamless Vein Tracking: Breaking a tracked ore immediately snaps the beam to the next closest block in the vein without losing the trail.
