Tiered leather satchels forged from the metals of Middle-earth — carry more on your journey.
🎒 About
Middle-earth Satchels adds lore-flavoured backpacks built for the Middle-earth mod. Every tier is forged from that culture's own metal — no diamonds, no redstone (neither exists in Middle-earth) — and wears its people's emblem.
✨ Features
- 🧳 Eight tiers, more room each step — from a humble Leather satchel to a legendary Mithril one (27 → 54 slots).
- ⚒️ Crafted from Middle-earth metals — each satchel uses its own culture's ingot: copper, tin, steel, and the Dwarven / Elven / Mordor steels, up to mithril.
- 🖐️ Right-click to open a familiar chest-style inventory — everything is stored safely inside the item.
- 🧱 Set it down as a block — sneak-place it on the ground, right-click to open it, sneak (empty hand) to pick it back up with all its contents, or break it to drop it fully packed.
- 🎨 Dyeable cloth wrap — dye the wrap with any dye; the colour even shows on the placed satchel.
- 🛡️ Culture emblems — Crown of Men, Dwarven Mountain, Leaf of Lórien, Eye of Mordor, and the Mithril Star.
- 🌍 English + Русский localisation built in.
