Funny Custom Death Messages & In-Game Editor
Because “died” was never funny enough.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Make every death worth reading.
LastWords replaces boring vanilla Minecraft death messages with funny, dramatic, brutal, chaotic, or fully custom death lines.
Whether a player hugs a cactus, swims in spicy water, gets folded by a skeleton, or gets deleted by a Creeper, LastWords gives every death personality.
Now with a server-wide Death Stats GUI and per-player death message toggles, players can enjoy funny death messages their way.

- Cactus deaths
- Berry bush deaths
- Fall deaths
- Void deaths
- Lava deaths

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Server Death Stats GUI
LastWords includes a public server-wide death statistics GUI.
Players can open a clean menu showing every tracked death cause and how many times that cause has happened across the server.
Each death cause icon can show:
- Total deaths for that cause
- Server percentage
- Message pool count
- Most recent victim
- Last generated LastWords message
- Last recorded death time
The GUI also includes a server overview item showing total server deaths, tracked causes, and the most common death cause.
Code (Text):
/lw stats
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Player Death Message Toggle
Not every player wants to see public death messages in chat all the time.
LastWords now allows players to hide or show public death messages for themselves without affecting the rest of the server.
Code (Text):
/lw toggle
/lw deathmessages
/lw deathmessages on
/lw deathmessages off
/lw deathmessages
/lw deathmessages on
/lw deathmessages off
Death messages will still be generated, server stats will still track correctly, and other players who have death messages enabled will still see them.
This is perfect for players who prefer a cleaner chat while still allowing the server to keep its funny death message system active.

Server owners can fully customise the webhook URL, embed title, description, footer, player head display, shown fields, and per-cause colours from the config.
