Description:
Borders & Bounties introduces a single powerful block — the Faction Claim Pillar — that lets players stake out and protect territory on a shared server. Placing one pillar claims a full 32×32 column of land, blocks outsiders from griefing, and gives your group a named faction identity. A persistent HUD keeps every player informed about their current location, faction, and server population in real time.
| Content | Description |
|---|---|
| Faction Claim Pillar | A decorative, glowing block that creates and anchors a protected land claim |
| 32Ă—32 Claim Zone | Full-height protection (Y -64 to 320) centered on each placed pillar |
| Faction Management Menu | Right-click UI to name your faction and manage trusted members |
| Borders & Bounties HUD | Always-on sidebar showing player, faction, member count, plots, and online count |
| Blue Flame Boundary Particles | Visual edge markers that trace the perimeter of your claimed land |
Place a Faction Claim Pillar on the ground. The moment it lands, a claim is registered with you as the Owner. Your faction starts with the default name Unassigned Faction. Blue flame particles will appear along the outer edges of your 32Ă—32 plot so you and others can see exactly where the border is.
Breaking your own pillar removes the claim entirely.
Right-click (interact with) your placed pillar to open the Faction Settings menu. From here you can:
Only the pillar's Owner can open this menu. Trusted friends can interact inside the claim but cannot access the management menu.
Inside a claimed area, players who are not the owner or on the trusted whitelist are blocked from:
When a blocked action is attempted, the player sees the message: Protected area belongs to [Faction Name]. Nearby players also receive an anti-grief chat alert.
If you place multiple pillars whose claims are adjacent or overlapping, the blue flame boundary particles automatically merge into a single clean outer perimeter — interior shared edges are hidden so the boundary always represents the true outside edge of your combined territory.
Every new player receives 1 free Faction Claim Pillar automatically upon their first join. Additional pillars must be crafted at a Crafting Table:
The pillar requires late-game materials — diamonds, netherite scrap, gold blocks, a Heart of the Sea, and crying obsidian — making each additional claim a meaningful investment.
A sidebar titled BORDERS & BOUNTIES is always visible and refreshes every second. It displays five pieces of information:
| Slot | Label | Shows |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | Player | Your username |
| 4 | Faction | Your faction name, or Wilderness if unclaimed land |
| 3 | Faction Members | Total number of players in your faction globally |
| 2 | Claimed Plots | Total number of pillars you have placed |
| 1 | Online | Number of players currently connected |

Neon White Soul Cards adds nine craftable, equippable soul cards that reshape movement and combat: place a card in your hotbar, aim and press use to trigger a visible projectile or movement ability and chain cards for fast, stylish runs across maps. Cards include Katana (deflects projectiles and grants a short speed boost, 30 durability), Purify (throws a wind-charge projectile that deals 8 damage), Elevate (launch plus slow falling), Health (restores 3 hearts and is a single-slot item), Godspeed (a larger, longer-lasting forward dash that damages enemies), Stomp (ground-pound that negates fall damage and creates a damaging shockwave), Fireball (directional damaging dash), Dominion (a grappling hook that pulls you to the aimed target), and Book of Life (infinite use; teleport to a mob in view or the nearest mob and deal damage); Purify, Elevate, Godspeed, Stomp, Fireball, and Dominion stack up to 3 while Katana, Health, and Book of Life remain single-slot. All recipes and icons are integrated so you can craft and begin chaining abilities immediately, Ammo is a one-use card that scans your inventory to grant +1 charge for each matching stackable card per matching card consumed, and the Book of Life inventory icon has been refreshed with a new v13 texture for a cleaner, updated look. Not bad for a dead guy huh?
VILLAGES ALIVE - A mod series that brings you helpful villagers to make your build easier. Finally a farmer that is useful! Seed Sack Seth will harvest and replant your farm with Sugarcane, Cactus, Potatoes, Carrots, and wheat. Just place the Farmhouse Block to auto-clear and flatten an 11×9 oak farmhouse 10 blocks ahead of you and instantly spawn a fully stocked, survival-ready farm—complete Five seconds after generation a persistent decorative NPC named Seed Sack Seth appears in the yard to be your farm worker that idles while waiting for the crops to grow and then harvest and places them in the chests surrounding the farm. When the chests are full he will begin composting the overflow and putting the Bone Meal in the chest by the composter.
Extra Large Chest is a craftable, placeable single-block chest that rotates on placement and features custom face textures; it provides 108 persistent item slots while placed and will drop its contents and the chest item when broken normally. Use (right-click/tap) to open a full UI with numbered slot buttons and a Drop All button (you can withdraw filled slots from the UI); sneak (crouch) + use or sneak + hit will quick-deposit the held stack, and sneaking while attempting to break the chest cancels the break and deposits the held stack instead. Hoppers placed above or beside and pointing into the chest insert items at a vanilla-like interval, while a hopper directly beneath will pull whole stored stacks each tick, merging into matching hopper stacks or filling empty hopper slots and leaving any remainder in the chest.
Adds two powerful, craftable tools: a Vein Miner pickaxe and a Tree Vein Miner axe, but only as diamond-tier items—each is crafted by combining a diamond pickaxe (or diamond axe), a cobblestone (or oak log), and a netherite ingot respectively. The Vein Miner automatically finds and breaks connected matching ore blocks when you mine one, and the Tree Vein Miner breaks connected logs and nearby leaves when you chop a tree; both process connected blocks over ticks with a built-in cap to protect performance and collect drops normally. Both tools have custom names and icons and behave like durable, ready-to-use tools—no commands or special setup required; equip them to your hotbar and use your normal mining/chopping controls.
Podzol Overlord Gear turns survival into an instant-command power fantasy by adding a full Podzol armor set (Overlord Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, Boots) that grants persistent Resistance, Regeneration, Strength, Haste, Speed and Night Vision when worn, podzol-crafted tools (Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel, Hoe) with extreme mining speed that effectively breaks matching block families instantly, and massively powerful weapons including a 999-damage Podzol Overlord Sword and a craftable, non-stackable throwable Podzol Overlord Spear. The Podzol Overlord Hammer now summons allied Podzol Zombies both when you hit enemies and when you right-click/use it (including use-on-block), spawning several podzol-themed allies that have 999 health and aggressively attack hostile mobs while dealing massive damage nearby. To start, gather podzol to craft the recipes, equip the full armor set for the buffs, throw spears at ranged threats or swing/right-click the hammer to call in your nearly-unstoppable podzol army while enjoying instant-mining and extreme survivability.
