About
Compound Origins is an Origins addon for building a custom origin by choosing one mini-origin from each of five layers: Folk, Affinity, Talent, Defect A and Defect B. Its Folk options include Dragonen with wings, Luamane with toggleable night vision, Faunan with faster movement and jumping, Wraitscal with invisibility and climbing, Benthite with extra reach and the ability to see nearby entities through walls, and Slipfin with short-range teleportation; each also increases food consumption. Affinities offer elemental traits and a choice of active ability: Fire can launch an incendiary fireball or spit lava, Water can fire a freezing projectile or raise an ice wall, Earth can launch stone projectiles or summon a stone wall, Air can call targeted lightning or push foes away, and Nature can fire poison or summon roots. Affinity traits also affect survival and interaction with the world, including fire and lava immunity for Fire, underwater breathing and digging for Water, hand-digging like a pickaxe or shovel for Earth, lightning immunity for Air, and free plant fertilization for Nature. Talent choices provide benefits such as extra health or armor, faster attack speed, reduced knockback, eating grass and leaves, or quicker Affinity ability recharge, while the two Defect layers impose drawbacks such as reduced health, armor, regeneration or attack speed and increased food consumption. The addon also provides a recipe for the Orb of Origins, allowing players to switch origins; this feature can be disabled.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Can update itself
- It can add or replace files in your mods folder, for example to update itself.
- Starts other programs
- It can start another program on your computer. It can open a web link or a file.
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Found in oωo-sentinel, a library it includes and in Apugli, a library it includes. See Privacy
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them.
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
- 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.3 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. 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.Read without running it
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Folders outside the game, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends
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
- 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 recent Minecraft versions. 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
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
We have not read its code history yet.
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.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.No AI content or AI features declared.
