Harvest the creatures of this world to become something more.

Features

Essence System
Harness the Essences of mobs to forge a new Aspect:
- Each mob has up to 3 Essences (like
Aquatic,Fire,Undead, etc.) - Use the Evergrowing Blade to collect them by killing or using the weapon on passive mobs
- Store them in a held Essence Cage in the Off Hand
- Automatically combines specific Essences to awaken an Aspect
Essence Combinations
Essence Combinations can also just be a singular Essences, like Human below.
Essences add up to 120 total regardless of amount of Essence Types.
So 1 Essence type means it takes 120 to create an aspect, 2 types means its a 60/60 split, 3 means 40/40/40 split, etc...
Humanoid→ HumanAquatic→ MerlingVoid+Humanoid→ EnderianBug+Plant→ Honey Bee- ...
(Full combination list available in-game)
Items & Tools
All recipes are unlocked from the start so check your recipe guide!
List of Custom Items
- Evergrowing Blade – Gather Essences by killing mobs or from passive mobs without killing. It also increases in power via kills
- Essence Cage – Store Essences awaken into an Awakened Essence Cage once a valid Essence Combination is stored

FAQ
Why is there a missing Resource Pack?
Likely due to the downloaded Data Pack version. You need to download the bundled Resource Pack from the same download location where you got the Data Pack.
The download for it can be found always on the version page directly, not on the main page of this modification.
Below is an example what the Data Pack (left) and Resource Pack (right) downloads look like on Modrinth:
My Mods button is overlapping the Aspects button in the Pause Menu!
This issue can be the fault of the Mod Menu (Fabric) mod itself. Make sure that in the Mod Menu settings the Game Menu option is NOT set to insert, if it is, set it to anything else.
How to change my Aspect after the first one?
First craft an Essence Cage and an Evergrowing Blade, then use the crafted items to capture essences from mobs (how to use them is described on the item itself or the in-game wiki). After you store enough essences for an Aspect, it will become an Awakened Essence Cage and is ready to be used to change your Aspect!
Are there any alternatives for changing my Aspect?
There is, but it requires commands and OP permissions. There is a debug command /function aspects:debug/repick_aspect that allows the person executing that command to repick their Aspect again. If you want another player to repick instead without giving them OP permissions, you can start the command with this instead:/execute as <player_name> at @s run function aspects:debug/repick_aspect.
Can I add an Aspect myself?
While this Data Pack allows addons to be made to add more, it isn't beginner friendly and requires decent knowledge of Minecraft's Data Pack system and commands.
A guide is currently not being made, but you can reference the Endorsed Addons above for how it can be done.
