This mod adds a wide variety of occult items, many of which are crafted through rituals rather than standard crafting. In addition to items such as spell tomes and voodoo dolls, there are also mechanics for turning onesself into a vampire, necromancy, and the summoning of demonic minions. Several new weapons and armors have also been added, many of which are optimized for greater effectiveness against enemies such as the vampires or demons that can be encountered while using this mod. The intention of this mod is to fill the niche for magic/occult mods in a way that is not overly complex or involved. Some rituals and recipes may be expensive, but most can be completed with a reasonable investment of time and resources. There are too many recipes for me to post here in any reasonable time frame, so JEI/REI/NEI or similar mods are HIGHLY recommended. A large number of items are crafted through rituals, rather than traditionally. These rituals will be added to the mod description as they cannot be found otherwise. Mod is currently ONLY available for Minecraft 1.20.1 with forge. I may update to other versions in the future, but I will most likely not be porting to non-forge modloaders.

Firearm Parts:

Assorted firearms parts, all silver plated. Recipes can be found in JEI/REI/NEI.

New Mobs:

Vampire:

-Vampires spawn in the overworld at night and are hostile to players, villagers, and illagers. They are armed with a silver bloodletting knife, have 40 HP, are classified as undead, and take additional damage from silver and holy weaponry. They are also able to open doors, and do not burn in the sun, although they do prefer to avoid sunlight.

Vampire Crossbowman:

-Nearly identical to the standard vampire, but armed with a crossbow firing silver bolts rather than a bloodletting knife.

Demon:

-Demons spawn in the nether and are hostile to players and most mobs. They attack using demonic magic which bypasses armor protection, have 40 HP, and take additional damage from holy weaponry but not silver. They are able to open doors, and can be summoned by the player using a Ritual Circle and Summoner's Amulet. Summoned demons can be controlled using the Summoner's Amulet. Sneak + Right Click changes their aggression settings, while Right Click changes their movement settings.

Flesh Golem:

-Flesh Golems can only be spawned through the use of a necromancer's amulet, by right clicking on a flesh golem core that has had 4 blocks of rotten flesh placed around it in a t-shape. Summoned flesh golems have 100 HP, and make melee attacks against enemies. Initially, they are hostile against everything but their creator, but they can be brought under control using the Necromancer's Amulet. Sneak + Right Click changes their aggression settings, while Right Click changes their movement settings.

New Blocks:

Silver Ore, Deepslate Silver Ore, Silver Block:

-Silver is used in the crafting of various weapons and armors, as well as in several rituals. It can be mined at the same levels as iron, and has a spawn rate similar to that of gold. Silver ingots can be crafted into a block, as with vanilla ingots.

Block of Rotten Flesh, Flesh Golem Core:

-Blocks of rotten flesh can be crafted using 9 rotten flesh, and are an essential component of flesh golems and some rituals. The flesh golem core is created using one of these rituals, infusing occult energies into a block of rotten flesh.

Reliquary:

-Reliquary blocks allow the creation of a defensive field against demons, vampires, and other undead. Any that enter within a short distance of a reliquary bearing a holy relic will be damaged and potentially set on fire.

Rituals:

Getting Started:

Ritual circles can be placed on the ground by right clicking it with an occult tome, while a bottle of blood is held in the off hand. This will consume the bottle of blood to draw a ritual circle on the floor. Ritual circles can be broken, but do not drop any items as they are simply a circle of smeared blood. To complete a ritual, the required components are placed in the circle through the gui (accessible by right clicking on the circle). Once this is done, the ritual can be completed by sneaking and right clicking the ritual circle while an occult tome is held in the hand. All rituals are detailed below:

Sacrificial Blade:
