About
Fantasy Fauna adds fantasy-themed creatures to Minecraft, including mushroom beings, a moss-covered rock creature, wisps, and winged eyeballs. Mushcaps mimic familiar mushrooms and hide from threats by drawing in their limbs and rooting themselves to the ground; after consuming enough rotten organic matter, they reproduce by budding. Their types include red and brown Mushcaps in Overworld forests and Nether wastes, crimson and warped varieties in their matching Nether forests, glowing Mushcaps underground, and the rarer Vishroom in Overworld forests. Mushcaps drop mushrooms or fungi matching their type, while glowing Mushcaps and Vishrooms can drop mod-specific items when compatible mods are present, or glow squid ink and purple dye otherwise; Vishrooms also cause nausea on contact. Mushmaa are stronger, longer-lived relatives of Mushcaps that protect and care for them. Mossoliths can wear blocks on their heads, hide beneath them, and carry both a block and a player on top, while showing an apparent attraction to mossy cobblestone. Wisps are normally harmless orbs of sentient energy that become hostile to nearby players when injured, and they commonly drop glowstone dust with a rare chance of essence. Wisp essence can be crafted into a lantern that keeps darkness at bay wherever it is carried. Eyebats are giant eyeballs with bat wings and pointed tails that usually appear in packs in wide-open areas and attack if provoked.

Security
No harmful code found
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
- 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.5 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 2 for recent versions. 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
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, 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 both files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds and found none.
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.Not on Modrinth.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found8 of 40 changelogs read
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Nothing found
- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found24 images read
- Sounds in its filesThe tags of the sound files in the files you download, where some AI music tools write their name.Nothing found8 sounds read
