A sarcastic entity that follows you, comments on your actions, and occasionally scares you at night.

Description

Oh… someone is watching you.

The Taber is a sarcastic, unpredictable entity that follows you around, comments on your actions, and occasionally interferes with your survival. He’s not hostile by default — but he’s not exactly friendly either.


 

just taber

He likes rooftops. Don’t ask why.

Features

  • A fully written personality through text lines
  • Reactions to player actions
  • Occasional “help” (if you can call it that)
  • Light horror elements without ruining gameplay
  • Mood swings and unpredictable behavior
  • A companion you never asked for — but can’t get rid of

How to find The Taber
The Taber does not spawn naturally. To meet him, you must complete a small quest:

  • Survive your first night
  • Wake up the next morning
  • Follow the strange clues and notes you’ll find
  • Collect the required items
  • Craft the Summoning Egg
  • Spawn your new… neighbor

You won’t meet him automatically — you summon him yourself.

Note: The mod contains occasional night scares (creepy sounds + a brief darkness effect). They are not loud or extreme, but they may surprise you.


Inspired by The Knocker (Java Edition).

Spoiler: Recipe

How to craft the Summoning Egg

Taber makes first contact after the first night. On the second night, you’ll find a note with a hint and some of the resources needed for the recipe.

Your task is to gather the remaining items on your own.

Once everything is ready, Taber will reach out to you again (and don’t worry about the missing wool — that part is intentional). After one or two days, he’ll add the final item, and you can proceed with the crafting.

Sometimes Taber may contact you with a slight delay — that’s normal. Enjoy the game!

Note from Taber: Just don’t eat the cat fur, okay? Trust me. Your stomach will thank you.
