Identification Scroll:

Identification Scroll / Made from paper, ink, feather, and lapis lazuli

The above is a shapeless recipe. The identification scroll Used to identify items and make the able to modified by this mod. Identified an item using the scroll allows it to be modified but a modified/identified item can still be used in any way a non-modified/non-identified item can. It will tell you how many slots an item has (for gems, see below). There is a %10 chance that when identifying an item it will get an Affinity (for Affinities, see below).

Affinity:

Iron sword with Spider Affinity

A tool can get an Affinity towards any block it can mine effectively. A weapon can get an Affinity towards any monster in the game. The higher level the item's Affinity is the more damage or the faster it digs it's respective mob or block. Every time you hit a mob with a weapon of it's affinity you get experience towards leveling up that affinity on the weapon. Every time you dig a block with a tool of it's affinity you get experience towards leveling up that affinity on the tool. The max Affinity level is 10 and the experience to the next level is exponential (meaning 10 exp to level 2 but 20 exp to level 3 and so on).

Totem:

Totem of a Spider

Can be attached to any weapon with an Affinity to the mob of the totem. Use an identification scroll on a totem to find out which mob it is for and to attach it to a weapon. Every monster has a 2.5% chance to drop a totem of it's own type. For every affinity level of the weapon with a totem there is a 5% chance that whenever you hit a mob of the affinity it will attack nearby mobs (doesn't work on some mobs like pigmen, zombies, and spiders). The means if you have a weapon with a lvl 10 blaze affinity and a blaze totem attached then there is a %50 chance every time you hit it that it will attack the nearest monster or creature to it within 16 blocks.

Gemstones:

Gemstones / Ruby Gemstone, Alexandrite Gemstone, Aquamarine Gemstone, Opal Gemstone, Sapphire Gemstone, Spinel Gemstone, Topaz Gemstone

All of the above gemstones can be harvested using shears to get their respective gems. If a pickaxe is used it will drop shards versions that, at the moment, do nothing. Each gemstone spawns in 3 veins in a chunk with each gem spawning in 7 levels from 7 to 49. For example: Ruby spawns from 7 to 14. The also have sides that look exactly like regular stone (even with a resource pack they look like whatever stone you have) so they are generally hard to find.

Gems:

Can be be on any identified item with slots open (not used by other gems). Usually more gems = more chance of the gem's effect happening or more gems = a stronger effect from the gems. Each gem must be identified using an identification scroll to be used to modify an item.
