ISpellCastr — Mind's Codex

Version: 1.0.0
Minecraft: 1.21.1
Loader: NeoForge 21.1.72+
Required Dependency: Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks

📖 Description

ISpellCastr introduces Mind's Codex, a new magical ability that allows players to learn and cast spells without carrying spell books.

The idea behind this addon was simple: if a wizard already knows a spell, why should they need to carry an entire library around?

With Mind's Codex, spells can be learned permanently from scrolls and stored directly in your memory. Once learned, they become available through a dedicated spell library and can be assigned to a customizable spell wheel.

For balance reasons, learned spells cannot be turned back into scrolls. If you want to remove a spell, you must forget it.

✨ Features

🎓 Learn spells directly from scrolls
🔮 9-slot customizable spell wheel
📚 Personal spell library
🗑️ Forget unwanted spells
✨ 13 unique custom spells
⚡ Spellcasting without books

🎮 Getting Started

Part of the fun is discovering them yourself. Some are useful, some are silly, and some may remind you of a very famous magical universe. 😉
