Gems & Jewels Mod (1.20.1, 1.19.2) – Treasures and Charms

Gems & Jewels Mod aims to enrich the mining, treasure hunting, and tool crafting aspects of Minecraft by adding tons of new gems to find, as well as treasures and charms.

Features:

• Crowns & Taxing Villagers: Crowns can be crafted and worn to claim lordship over villagers. Interacting with a villager while wearing a crown will claim them. After they are claimed, the player can collect taxes from them once every 8 days (one full cycle of moon phases). Each employed villager will pay 1 emerald per job mastery level. Nitwits pay with seeds but sometimes diamonds. A villager can owe up to 3 cycles of taxes (24 days). Players cannot claim or tax villagers that have already been claimed by other players.
• World Generation: Gems can be found from mining Lapis, Redstone, Diamond, Amethyst Clusters, and Quartz. This way the mod can be added to existing worlds without players missing out on ore spawns. Additionally, it will be easier for players to remove the mod and resume playing in vanilla/modded if they wish. Finally, it allows for much quicker mod updates. Release versions of the mod will have ore generation and custom blocks like older versions of the mod.
• Upgrading Tools: Swords, Pickaxes, Axes, Shovels, Hoes, Bows, and Enchanted Books can all be upgraded by applying a jeweled ring to them. By using a ring on a smithing table while holding the tool in your off-hand you will increase the Luck and Armor of the tool by +2. Additionally, the tool will track and display a count of mobs slain. Rings can be swapped out using the same technique with a different ring. Modded tools can also be upgraded in the same way but the jeweled textures will not show. The jeweled textures are implemented using CustomModelData in a data pack. This way, players/mod developers can implement their own appearance for jeweled modded tools through data packs.
• Luck: A new utility added to the luck stat, Luck increases the chance of a lucky strike which deals 200% damage and recovers durability. Entities hit by a lucky strike will drop EXP. Blocks broken by a lucky strike will drop EXP. Maximum luck is considered 20 Luck.
• Villagers & Wandering Traders: Jeweled rings can be given to villagers as a bribe, improving their relationship with you and lowering the cost of trades. Gemstones can be used on villagers to change the currency they accept. Wandering traders will accept gemstones in exchange for common emeralds. Based on the biome they are in, wandering traders will exchange gemstones that they consider exotic for more emeralds. In general, exchanging any gemstone with a wandering trader will net more value than trading them to a villager.
• Enchanted Rings: Enchanted Rings cannot be crafted through known means. Instead they must be found in Dungeon Chests, Desert Pyramids, Jungle Temples, or Buried Treasure. They are named in the same runic language seen in enchantment tables. An enchanted ring can be used like a potion to grant magical effects or it can be worn (with the Curios mod installed) for a continuous stream of the magical effect. Each use drains the durability of the ring until it is about to break. Then it drains experience from the user. If the user does not have experience, it will do nothing.
• Crowns, Keys, and Treasure: When crowns are crafted, they keep track of when, where, and who they were crafted by. They also keep track of who wore it last. The crown provides the wearer damage resistance in the biome it was crafted in. Keys can be used on mob spawners to summon treasure burdened mobs. Some may be wearing exclusive armor or wielding exclusive weapons. When a treasure burdened mob is hurt it may spawn other mobs as reinforcements and/or become enraged. While enraged the mob gets damage resistance, strength, and speed for a short duration. When a treasure burdened mob is slain it will drop additional loot as well as any special weapons or armor.
