![Nemesis: The Mob That Kills You Becomes Your Rival [1.20.6-1.21.x]](https://www.spigotmc.org/data/resource_icons/137/137297.jpg?1784799685){kind=icon}
What it does
Kill a player and an ordinary zombie doesn't just wander off. It gets promoted.
It's given a name and a title (Grishnak the Cruel), boosted stats, a glowing outline, immunity to sunlight, and it's marked never to despawn. It hunts its victim. You get an action-bar warning when it's closing in. And if it kills you again, it levels up, gains new abilities and earns a nastier title.
Hunt it down and kill it, and you claim revenge loot, a named trophy, and a server-wide announcement of your victory. The grudge is settled, until something else kills you.
One nemesis per player at a time, so the rivalry stays personal.
Level progression (all configurable)
