⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.16.5 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
If you use it on a video, you gotta credit me and link the mod :D
The beautiful glare is now in 1.16.5! You can tame it with grass, and it will follow you around in caves and the like for a couple of minutes! If it detects darkness, it will fly to that location and spawn bright particles to light it up slightly and play a little sound to let you know that they don't like it!
It spawns in caves in the dark!
The Glare will untame itself after 5 minutes of being tamed.
When a glare dies or gets killed, it will light up the area for a random amount of time.
