Description
✨ Arcane Spells ✨
Become a mage: a star map, mantles, dozens of spells and an enchanted forest
Fabric · Minecraft 1.21.1 · version 0.5.1
🔮 About
Arcane Spells adds a complete magic system to Minecraft. You get mana, ranks, books and ten constellations where spells are learned. Two spells can be combined into a new, stronger one.
The world grows around the magic: a magic forest biome, home to mages, magic bears, cows and bees, with a mage's hut hidden among the trees and a chest inside.
Fully translated into English and Russian.
🌟 Features
📖 Magic
- Mana with a vertical bar at the edge of the screen and spare bars, like absorption hearts.
- 7 ranks from Novice to Almighty. A higher rank unlocks stronger spells.
- 77 abilities: 43 learnable and 34 combined. Fire, ice, lightning, stars, black holes, spirits, wind and dragon flame.
- Ability training: spells get stronger and cheaper the more you cast and train them.
- 4 mantles (simple, improved, magical, archmagical) that add mana and empower defensive spells.
- Upgrade branches with a paid reset.
🌌 The Star Map
The Book of Astronomy holds ten real constellations: Lyra, Cassiopeia, Cygnus, Ursa Major, Orion, Scorpius, Gemini, Draco, Pegasus and Andromeda. Spells stand on bright stars and unlock along the lines. Drag and zoom the map, or search it for an ability.
⚗️ Combining
From Master rank, two compatible spells merge into a new one: Meteor Shower, Thunderstorm, Inferno Breath, Rocket Leap and more. Each has its own look and sound.
🌲 The Magic Forest and its Inhabitants
A rare azure-and-violet biome. You may meet:
| Creature | Notes |
|---|---|
| 🧙 Mage | Peaceful; fights monsters with light spells |
| 🐻 Magic Bear | Calm until provoked |
| 🐄 Magic Cow | A bucket gives Magic Milk |
| 🐝 Magic Bee | Fills a Magic Hive with honey |
| 😈 Heretic | Appears now and then like a raider and hunts mages and clerics |
🍯 Magic Honey and 🥛 Magic Milk grant Mana Flow: faster mana regeneration (x2 and x3).
🏠 The Mage's Hut
A cosy cottage in the magic forest: a library, a workshop, a glowing altar and a tower with a crystal. A mage and a few bees live nearby. The chest holds mantle materials and, sometimes, a first-tier mantle.
🧱 New Blocks
