# Naraka — Retextured [SCP-4335 Aesthetic]

*Item №: —
Object Class: Keter (reskinned)*
*Special Containment Procedures: Install with caution. Visual side effects not evaluated by the Foundation.*

## Description

Naraka was never meant to look like this. What began as a straightforward Fabric mod — new ores, tougher materials, a Herobrine-class boss encounter — has been pulled through a different filter: darker, smokier, closer to the aesthetic of a Foundation containment log than a vanilla-adjacent add-on. Think tendrils in the smoke, cognitohazard energy, the sense that something in the texture pack shouldn't be looked at directly for too long.

This is **not a new mod**. It is a full retexture of the original *Naraka* mod, redone to match my own visual style — inspired by the SCP-4335 ("A Welt in the Crucible") aesthetic. All game mechanics, code, and mod structure belong entirely to the original team. Only the textures have been reworked.

## What's Changed

- Herobrine and related entity textures (main model, eyes, spawn egg)
- Totem textures (all sides/variants)
- Tool and weapon textures (pickaxe, spear)
- Smithing template & upgrade item textures
- Misc. item icons (purified soul shard, etc.)

Everything else — items, ores, boss logic, progression — is untouched and functions exactly as the original author intended.

## Requirements

- **Minecraft:** ~26.2
- **Fabric Loader:** ≥ 0.19.3
- **Fabric API:** ≥ 0.152.2+26.2
- **Java:** ≥ 21
- Optional integrations: Jade, JEI (if installed, Naraka hooks into both automatically)

## Installation

1. Install Fabric Loader for Minecraft 26.2.
2. Download and place Fabric API in your `mods` folder.
3. Download this retexture jar and place it in the same `mods` folder.
4. Launch the game — no additional configuration needed.

*Note: this is a standalone reskin, not a resource pack — you don't need to load anything separately. Just drop the jar in like any other mod.*
