Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Forge
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

This mod adds a wide variety of occult items, many of which are crafted through rituals rather than standard crafting. In addition to items such as spell tomes and voodoo dolls, there are also mechanics for turning onesself into a vampire, necromancy, and the summoning of demonic minions. Several new weapons and armors have also been added, many of which are optimized for greater effectiveness against enemies such as the vampires or demons that can be encountered while using this mod. The intention of this mod is to fill the niche for magic/occult mods in a way that is not overly complex or involved. Some rituals and recipes may be expensive, but most can be completed with a reasonable investment of time and resources. There are too many recipes for me to post here in any reasonable time frame, so JEI/REI/NEI or similar mods are HIGHLY recommended. A large number of items are crafted through rituals, rather than traditionally. These rituals will be added to the mod description as they cannot be found otherwise. Mod is currently available for Minecraft 1.20.1 with forge, and as a BETA version in 1.21.1 with neoforge. If you find any issues with the new neoforge version, please let me know so I can address them. I may update to other versions in the future, but I will most likely not be porting to non-forge modloaders.

Getting Started:

DC's Simple Occultism — Minecraft Java mod, screenshot 17

Ritual circles can be placed on the ground by right clicking it with an occult tome, while a bottle of blood is held in the off hand. This will consume the bottle of blood to draw a ritual circle on the floor. Ritual circles can be broken, but do not drop any items as they are simply a circle of smeared blood. To complete a ritual, the required components are placed in the circle through the gui (accessible by right clicking on the circle). Once this is done, the ritual can be completed by sneaking and right clicking the ritual circle while an occult tome is held in the hand. All rituals are detailed below:
