Ascension — a Dragon Block Rebirth addon

by Maddie (slope.__ on Discord)

Ascension is an addon for Dragon Block Rebirth that adds a second layer of transformations on top of DBR's existing forms. Seven new forms across three skill paths, a dedicated radial menu so they don't clutter DBR's own form list, and a Ki Blade melee technique for when you'd rather cut something than blast it - by default, it deals the average of your ki attack and melee attack.

Every skill in this addon is granted through a command, so server owners decide who gets access and when, because this is built to slot into a progression server, not to hand every player a new form the moment they install it. This is NOT survival-ready!!!

Three Paths

Oozaru (Saiyan only)

• Oozaru — the classic moon transformation. Needs a tail and a clear line of sight to the night sky, or a Blutz Wave Generator if you'd rather not wait for the right night.
• Ikari — same power tier as Oozaru, but usable any time, day or night, tail or no tail.
• Golden Oozaru — the next step up from Oozaru specifically. Gold skin, gold tail, and it hits noticeably harder.

Potential (any race)

• Mystic
• Beast

Indomitable Will (Human only)

• Buff
• Master

Full Power Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan Wrath are also implemented, built on top of DBR's existing Super Saiyan line rather than starting a new tree from scratch.

Every one of these forms that used to require going back to your base form first can now be reached directly from whatever form you're currently in. If you're standing around as Super Saiyan 2 and want to go straight to Ikari, you don't have to power down first.

Radial Form Menu

Hold Y and a wheel pops up with every Ascension form on it. Forms you haven't unlocked yet show up grayed out so you can still see what's coming. I'm honestly really proud of this.

Ki Blade

A melee technique that blends your physical and ki attack stats into one stat for your swing. Toggle it on, take a swing, toggle it off. It's gated behind its own skill just like everything else here — nobody has it until you give it to them.

Aura and visuals

Every form gets its own configurable aura color. Beast, Full Power Super Saiyan, and Wrath also have lightning effects.

Oozaru and Golden Oozaru use Pehkui for the size increase.

Every color in the mod is configurable if you want to retheme a form to match your own server's palette.

Granting skills

Everything is handled through /dbrascension skill <path> <level> run on a player. There's no in-game purchase flow — this addon assumes you're the one deciding who gets what, whether that's through a quest line, a boss drop, playtime, or just typing the command yourself.

Other/Misc Features

• Lock on by pressing V while facing a player/hostile mob.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.20.1
• Forge
• Dragon Block Rebirth

Bug reports and suggestions are welcome. If a form isn't transforming the way you'd expect, or a color looks off on your setup, let me know (Discord: slope.__) what form, what you were doing, and what happened; that's always more useful than "it's broken."
