Oathbound Relics is a dark-fantasy progression mod about accepting a costly pact: the Oathbound Relic brands its bearer, opens Oathbound progression, and grants blessings alongside curses that make power come with burdens. Progress depends on active play beneath the Brand, including movement, combat, and mining; Branded Progress unlocks stronger relics, advanced Titan’s Remnant stages, and the four Sin Weapons, with the highest-tier systems requiring deep attunement. Exploration leads to themed loot rather than one undifferentiated relic pool: Ancient Cities offer relics such as the Hollow Eye and Shroud of the Forsaken, Strongholds hold ritual and support curios, Nether Fortresses and Bastions yield ash- and penance-themed artifacts, and End Cities contain void-themed finds. Bosses and creatures provide another progression route: the Wither, Ender Dragon, Elder Guardian, and Warden each yield a distinct Dormant Titan’s Remnant, while Phantoms and Shulkers can drop the Skybrand Feather and Void Pearl respectively. Each of the six Remnants advances through Dormant, Latent, Awakened, Ascended, Transcendent, and Apex stages using catalysts, with later stages gated by the Oath and the final Apex stage by high Branded attunement. Crafted rings form a separate progression line from Gold Ring to Cyan Ring to Nebula Ring, while Aredrite armor is mined and forged from End materials and gains increasingly powerful defensive set effects, including a Branded survival burst when the full set is worn. The Sin Weapons are the Lethargic Greatsword, Vanity’s Edge, Covetfang, and Ruinwake; each has a distinct risky combat identity, from Sloth’s punishing failed hits to Envy’s target-claiming theft of strength and Wrath’s Grudge-fueled shockwave. The Oathbound Codex guides players through acquisition, upgrades, materials, relics, weapons, and rituals, while the Branded Time Checker lets bearers inspect their progress and attunement. Players who want to leave the pact can perform the Rite of Severance, a costly ritual that destroys the Oathbound Relic and removes the Branded state.
Written from Modrinth . How we write it
Changes the game's code in 2 areas: Inventory and itemsChanges 2 game code files in this area: items, chests and other containers, crafting and enchanting. and Mobs and their behaviorChanges 2 game code files in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act..
Adds 4 blocks, 52 items, 21 recipes, 12 advancements and 20 loot tables.
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.
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.
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.
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.
