Arcana 0.1.2

New magic

• Added 48 spells, bringing the spell catalog to 169. The expansion includes combat, protection, movement, construction, exploration and three unique rebirth rewards.
• New Intermediate spells: Alchemic Breath, Borrowed Fuse, Challengers Brand, Gale Rebound, Omen Lines, Packbond, Piston Palm, Stampede, Undertow Ward and Wayfarers Hearth.
• New Advanced spells: Crystal Covenant, Frostline Road, Keystone Sight, Nightsight, Quarry Blade and Stormleash.
• New Saint spells: Blink Rend, Comet Dive, Cosmic Flight, Downburst, Exodus Flame, Fault Line, Glacier Fall, Magma Geyser, Ore Sight, Spatial Anchor, Stone Cannon, Thornwood Serpent and Water Dragon.
• New King spells: Gate of Worlds, Homing Rapture and Sympathy Strike.
• New Emperor spells: Furnace Soul, Heavens Nail, Infinity, Monarchs Pressure, Second Hand, Shadow Passage, Starfall Garden, The Duel, Thunder Cathedral and White Flame.
• New God spells: Ultra Instinct, Worldseed Recall and Wrath.
• New unique rebirth rewards: Glintblood, Heart Unbound and The One I Was. Bind enchantments to your soul, protect your life with a Heartroot, or summon a past incarnation to fight beside you.
• Travel between previously visited dimensions with Gate of Worlds, build temporary ice routes with Frostline Road, fly with Cosmic Flight, and find chosen ores with Ore Sight.
• Spatial Anchor keeps its surrounding 3 × 3 chunks active, including while its owner is offline on a running server. Break an anchor to release its chunks; nothing runs while a singleplayer world is closed.
• Worldseed Recall fills missing natural terrain from the world seed while preserving existing blocks and builds. Wrath unleashes a vast, destructive eruption. Ultra Instinct adds automatic evasions with its own dodge resource.

Demon Eyes

• Added ten Demon Eyes: Foresight, Clairvoyance, Magic Power, Identification, Transparency, Absorption, All-Seeing, Affection, Laplace's Eye and Death Lines.
• Equip eyes on the left or right through the new Eyes menu. Their powers include foresight, remote vision, power readings, absorption, tracking and lethal precision. Each eye is unique within a world.
• Players have a 5% chance to receive a free eye on their first eligible join. Eyes can also be summoned, transferred or taken from a defeated player. Ordinary non-player deaths preserve them.
• Added the rare Demon Spirit item to Nether fortress, ancient city and End city chest loot. Use it at a netherite altar to summon an unclaimed eye. If every eye is claimed, the spirit is kept.
• Added eye unlock animations, visible equipped eyes, individual seals, an eye HUD and operator commands for managing ownership.

Equipment and enemies

• Added a craftable Wizard Hat, Robe, Leggings and Boots with custom models. Each piece gives 5% Magicule Efficiency and 5% Arcane spell damage, for 20% of each with the full set.
• Piglins, piglin brutes, zombie leaders, trident-wielding drowned and pillagers can now become spellcasters. Their schools include fire, protection, healing, earth, water and lightning, with stronger spells at higher ranks.
• Casters carry animated spellbooks, and unarmed casters keep their distance and dodge incoming shots. A player kill has a 10% chance to drop a book for one of the caster's spells. Existing eligible mobs receive their caster roll when first loaded after updating.

Progression and controls

• Added Character > Stats. Spend Insight on Health, Defense, Spell Damage and Speed; Speed reduces spell cooldowns. Rebirth resets these purchased stats.
• Added Give Insight for transferring Insight to nearby players.
• Choose an unlocked Full Mastery, Master or Maximum form in the Grimoire. Lower forms use their own effects and costs without removing your unlocked progression. Forms cannot change during casting or while the spell is active.
• Thunder Storm now offers Enemies Only and Everything but Allies targeting modes.
• Protection Shield can be lowered and raised from its core. Lowering stops protection and upkeep while preserving stored Magicule and incoming support.
• Wild Shape now uses a scrolling form picker with unlock notifications and support for forms supplied by optional add-ons.

Art and fixes

• Fixed large Magicule values overflowing the hotbar display.
• Fixed clipped text in the Rebirth window with wrapping, responsive sizing and scrolling.
• Fixed Genesis and Dawn failing to grant their intended absorption hearts.

Updating

• For Minecraft 1.21.1 / NeoForge. Update Arcana on both server and clients. Required library versions are unchanged from 0.1.1.
• Gate of Worlds records destinations after you stand on safe ground there with this update. The One I Was records past lives at rebirth after updating; earlier lives cannot be reconstructed.
• Existing generated chunks and opened loot are not globally reset. New chest loot requires unopened loot containers or newly generated structures.
• Sky-castle dungeons and the Aether Engine remain disabled. Heaven's Celestial City and the Spirit Realm's Floating Palace remain available from 0.1.1.
• Lootr integration remains a separate optional add-on. Alex's Mobs forms also belong to a separate add-on and are not included in this main JAR.
