Features:
- When a named, tamed pet (cats, dogs, parrots, or horses) is killed by external sources (not the owner), it drops a spirit. Players can craft a Totem of Persistence using a netherite upgrade smithing template, a netherite ingot, and a totem of undying in a smithing table. Combining the Totem of Persistence with another smithing template and the pet’s spirit creates a Persistent Spirit, which, when used on the ground, resurrects the pet.
- Introduced allied spirits that don’t take damage from their owner, an Apple of Alliance (a utility-focused version of God Apples that can convert pets into allied pets when sneak-right-clicked), and a Takeover Totem to change a pet’s owner.
