Astral Wishes and Weapons
- By
Colorful souls fall from the sky and grant you powers. 15 wishes, altars in hidden mini-temples, 11 relic weapons, the Magic Pillow, and the Archons: beings that feed on your fear. Forge 1.20.1.
✨ What is it?
Astral Weapons is a soft, colorful magic mod for Minecraft Forge 1.20.1. Wishes fall from the sky: ancient souls shaped like glowing drops that grant a temporary power to whoever they touch. With their essences you craft relic weapons, the Magic Pillow and a compass that leads you to more wishes. But in the dark, the Archons are waiting: beings that live off your fear.
🌠 Wishes
Every so often a wish falls near you. If it doesn't reach anyone, it dissolves and leaves an essence behind. There are 15 colors, each with its own power:
| Wish | Power |
|---|---|
| 🟢 Green | More health, regeneration, grows nearby crops and heals animals |
| 🔴 Red | Extra attack and armor, fire immunity, everything you hit burns |
| 🟡 Yellow | Speed, night vision, a trail of light, and lightning arcs between enemies |
| 🟣 Violet | Slow falling, huge jumps, a living-creature radar, and dodges projectiles |
| 🔵 Blue | Breathe underwater, swim like a dolphin, heal in water and rain |
| ⚪ White | Walk on water by freezing it, and freeze nearby enemies |
| 🩷 Pink | Nearby animals fall in love and breed, heals allies and pets |
| 🟠 Orange | Haste III and a 30% chance to double block drops |
| 🩵 Cyan (Courage) | Immune to the Archons' fear and deals double damage to them |
| 🩶 Silver (Aegis) | Huge armor and reflects damage back to attackers |
| 💚 Lime (Gale) | High jumps, feather fall, and the wind pushes enemies away |
| 💜 Magenta (Arcane) | Attracts experience orbs, and your hits curse enemies |
| 🌟 Golden (rare, daytime) | Huge health, attack and armor, double experience |
| 🌑 Dark (rare, nighttime) | Huge attack and speed, steals life, but you lose 4 hearts |
| 🌈 Rainbow (ultra rare) | Only falls during Wish Showers and gives you 3 random powers at once |
Each night there is also a small chance of a Wish Shower: for 30 seconds, many wishes of every color fall. When you have several wishes active at once, Astral Harmony grants extra bonuses (shield, resistance, regeneration and strength).
🏛️ Altars and mini-temples
Rare stone and quartz mini-temples generate across the world, each with a loot chest (essences, amethyst and gold). At the center stands a Wish Altar:
- Right-click it with an essence and its power stays with you indefinitely, wherever you go, until you take it back.
- Only the owner (or an operator) can take the essence back with a right-click.
- You can carry the altar to your base and place several of them to stack powers.
⚔️ Relic weapons
Indestructible weapons crafted shapeless from essences. Four classics and seven new ones:
- ⭐ Shooting Star Staff · 🌙 Crescent Moon Blade · ☀️ Rising Sun Scepter · ☄️ Comet Hammer
- 🩵 Blade of Courage · ☀️ Spear of Dawn · 🌑 Eclipse Scythe · 🛡️ Aegis Axe · ❄️ Glacial Scepter · 🍃 Gale Dagger · 🔮 Arcane Wand
Each has a right-click ability, and their abilities never harm animals, villagers, pets or players.
😴 Magic Pillow
A single item with 4 powers depending on the armor slot it is worn in: protective hug (head), floating nap and sleep (chest), a 162-slot magic pocket that absorbs nearby items (legs), and a travel cloud you can fly on (feet).
👁️ The Archons
Beings that take the shape of your fears (darkness, heights, drowning, fire, venom) and feed on your terror. They teleport behind you when you aren't looking, heal when you're afraid, and are weakened by light. They have 70 health and hit hard. The Courage wish and the new weapons are designed to stand up to them. They drop valuable essences.
🧭 Wish Compass
Shows the color, distance and direction of the nearest wish and leaves a trail of sparkles.
⚙️ Configuration
File config/astral-common.toml: wish frequency, fall height, maximum simultaneous wishes, shower chance, power duration multiplier, whether the pillow protects (handy for PvP servers), pocket radius and cloud speed.
🎮 Commands (operators)
/astral wish <color>: makes a wish fall on you./astral shower: starts a Wish Shower./locate structure astral:altar_shrine: finds the nearest mini-temple.
⌨️ Keys (rebindable in Controls)
