CAGE

Approach. Aim. Seal. Carry. Awaken.

CAGE is a relic you find, not a tool you craft. Aim at a monster spawner and seal it. The block is gone — no XP, no silk-touch drop. A sealed cage floats where it stood. Plant that seal as a dormant core. Use CAGE on the core and the spawner wakes again, same mob, same timing. The first spawn waits ten seconds. Get away.

It is not Silk Touch. It does not clone. One capture is one core, then one spawner. Copies of the sealed item cannot plant a second cage.

Trial Spawners use the same Relic and the same sealed item. A sealed Trial looks like a Trial Spawner (ominous if it was ominous), not like the monster-spawner cage. Custom spawner blocks from other mods are out of this release. A vanilla spawner with a modded mob is fine.

Sneak and use in the air to Infuse. The offering must fit entirely.

How to use it

• Right-click a monster spawner or Trial Spawner (within 6 blocks, line of sight) — seal it. Costs 15 charge.
• Right-click a block with the sealed cage — plant the dormant core.
• Right-click the core with CAGE — awaken the spawner. Costs 5 charge. First delay: 10 seconds.
• Sneak + empty hand on the core — pick the seal back up. No cost.
• Sneak + use in the air — Infuse.

Creative skips the fuel cost for seal and awaken. Infuse still drinks materials.

Charge

Maximum 100. Seal 15. Awaken 5.

If the Relic cannot take the whole offering, nothing is consumed.

Where it drops

Rare. About 4% per matching chest:

• Pillager outposts
• Jungle temples
• Ruined portals
• Bastions
• Trial chamber rewards

No recipe. Creative inventory still has it for testing.

Numbers (costs, range, warmup, fuel) live in the server config.

What it is not

No crafting. No Silk Touch. No second spawner from a cloned seal. No custom spawner blocks from other mods.
