Description
Decorate a Yule Tree that leaves up to two gifts every night, open them gacha-style for gold, diamonds or festive gear, and defeat Krampus for the Starlit Sleigh.
- Yule Tree: a 4-block tree you decorate in three steps (Fairy Lights, 6 Baubles, Star Topper). Each step makes it shine brighter on the ground around it, and a finished tree hangs an aurora in the night sky.
- Up to 2 gifts a night: at dusk the finished tree shudders and throws them out in an arc. Gifts cannot be crafted.
- Gacha gifts with five tiers, each with its own opening animation, particles and sound: Common 86%, Rare 8% (gold), Epic 3.5% (diamonds), Treasure 2% (gear), Legendary 0.5% (best gear, announced to the server). Every chance is in the config.
- Krampus: a 420 HP boss with a three-hit birch switch combo, an ice-ring slam, thrown coal and a howl that enrages him below half health. Called with Naughty Coal at night.
- Starlit Sleigh: two seats, flies where the driver looks, leaves a trail of stars. The driver sits with both hands on the reins, which swing with the ride; the passenger sits at rest.
- 3 armor sets with animated capes, plumes and hats, each with a full-set bonus; 4 weapons, including a Star Scepter that fires homing stars.
- Fairy Lights for your walls, Snow Globe that freezes nearby hostiles, festive food.
- Original particles and sounds, all made for this mod. English and Indonesian.

2. Defeat him for Yule Heartwood and Krampus Horns.
3. Craft a Yule Tree from Yule Heartwood, 3 spruce saplings, 2 spruce planks and red wool, and place it near your base.
4. Right-click the tree with Fairy Lights, then 6 Baubles, then a Star Topper.
5. Stay within 24 blocks at dusk and open what it throws out.
- Crafted only from what Krampus drops.
- Three stages: Fairy Lights, then 6 Baubles, then a Star Topper. Every stage lights a little more of the ground around it.
- A finished tree checks at dusk for a player within 24 blocks, then shakes and throws its gifts out in an arc. Once a night, 2 gifts at most.

## Krampus
- 420 HP and 10 armor. Fights with a birch switch: a three-hit combo up close, a slam that sends out a ring of ice, thrown burning coal.
- Below half health he howls and the fight turns colder.
- Always drops 1-2 Krampus Horns, 1-2 Yule Heartwood, a Birch Switch, 2-4 Diamonds and 4-8 Baubles.
- **Winter Warden:** full set gives Resistance I.
- **Nutcracker:** full set gives Strength I.
- **Aurora Regalia:** full set gives Regeneration, Speed and Night Vision.
- **Peppermint Cleaver:** hits give you a burst of Speed.
- **Nutcracker Maul:** knocks hostiles around the target away.
- **Aurora Blade:** slows what it cuts.
- **Star Scepter:** right-click fires a homing star every 0.8 s.
- **Birch Switch:** Krampus's own weapon, dropped when he falls.
- Craft a Sleigh Bell from a Krampus Horn, 2 gold ingots, a bell and red wool.
- Ring it to call your sleigh, ring it again near the sleigh to send it home.
- Right-click to sit. The first rider drives: W to fly, look to steer and climb. Shift to get off; you drift down with Slow Falling.
