REQUIRES THE PEHKUI MOD FOR ANY SIZE CHANGES
This is a datapack that adds three new origins based around the three mob vote candidates from October 2023. Crabble: the crab origin, Pengui: the penguin origin, and Arma: the armadillo origin.
Crabble
Impact: 2
Icon: Tube Coral
+ Scuttle: Your legs are not built for normal movement. You move faster side to side and when crouched, but slower straight forward or backward.
+ Cartoonishly Noisy: Your sideways movement is too quick, and will still set off sculk sensors when crouched.
*You can walk quieter with Swift Sneak III
+ Sideways Step: You can climb a couple blocks up before needing to take a rest.
*Toggle on and off with [Primary]
+ Crabby Claws: Your claws allow you to reach blocks slightly farther away. They are unfortunately useless when reaching further entities.
Pengui
Impact: 2
Icon: Tropical Fish
- Slip: All surfaces are slippery beneath your webbed feet.
- Slide: With enough speed you can slide from land over the water's surface, but will sink as soon as you stop sprinting.
*Once you stop sprinting, you will need to touch dry land again to slide on top of water
- Penguin Build: Your flippers and small size allow you to swim notably faster than a human.
*-.5 height
*x2 swim speed
- Piscivore: You are used to hunting fish, so it is slightly more filling and saturating, but all other food is barely useful to you.
- Huddle Up: A smaller body means less to keep warm, but your kind will still huddle together for heat and will heal more effectively when very close to others.
Arma 
Impact: 1
Icon: Leather
- Shell Armor: You can curl up by crouching, giving you extra armor points and causing you to fall faster.
*+6 armor
+ Strike: Quickly roll at enemies, damaging any you hit with more and more power depending on the strength of your armor.
*Dash forward with [Primary]
+ Armor Gaps: The gaps in your shell are vulnerable, making you much more susceptible to damage when not curled up.
*+25% damage received when not crouched
+ Favorite Snack: You can eat spider eyes without issue, they're quite tasty. Any wolf friends you share them with will also find them tastier.
+ Hunched Over: Your shell does make you hunch a bit.
*-15% height
