    About

    Alpha's Rise is an add-on for Isle of Berk that brings How to Train Your Dragon’s Alpha dragons and related content into Minecraft. Its dragons include the Bewilderbeast, Purple Death, Foreverwing, and Red Death, with additional variants for several of them. The world content includes a revamped Berk, the Red Death’s nest, Dragon Island, Foreverwing nests, and Cloudfall Island, a Titan Foreverwing sanctuary. Berk and Cloudfall Island introduce characters and story content, including Hiccup, Astrid, Fishlegs, Stoick, Valka, and four new NPCs at Cloudfall Island. Players can trade with Heather on Berk for a dragon lens, which is needed alongside a dragon eye for its use and crafting; the lens trade is described as a challenge requiring a hard-to-find item. The mod also adds dragon-eye items, camera changes for controlling the Bewilderbeast and Foreverwing, craftable character-themed staffs, and animal drops affected by the Looting enchantment.

    Written from Modrinth and CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.18.2.

    Does not change the game's code directly.

    Adds 12 blocks, 16 items, 4 mobs, 20 structures, 12 recipes, 15 advancements, 8 loot tables and 1 sound.

    Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.18.2.

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.

    How we checked · The latest file checked, last on 15 Oct 2026
    • FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.
      1 latest file. It is not for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about it. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
    • Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.18.2.

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.

    How we checked · Its one file read
    • Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.
      The code of its one file, for Minecraft 1.18.2. See each file in Releases
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.
      Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.

    AI

    AI was used for its images

    ChatGPT is named in the images in its files.

    No sign of AI in the game

    We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.

    Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
