Features
Battle Initiant includes many features. Some examples include:
Slime Boots: Jump higher at the cost of speed

Echo Pearl: A rare item that can be thrown to recreate a Warden's Sonic Boom attack
Plasma Sword: Similar to a lightsaber, this sword lights enemies on fire and has no knockback

Knights: Upgrade villagers to knights to let them fight your enemies (including players)
You can also make neutral knights join your side by giving them emeralds
Archers: Give one of your knights a bow to make them an archer

- More Structures: More reason for exploration!
- More Advancements: You'll always have something to do!
FAQ
The spoiler below will give instructions and tutorials on how to use the mod. If you want to find out as you play, skip this section.
How To Use Knights: Currently, there are 2 ways to obtain knights. The first way is to craft a Knight Upgrade (8 iron nuggets + 1 iron chestplate) then right click a villager; this will transform the villager into a knight and will automatically be on your team/side. The second way is to find a neutral knight (at one of their natural structures or spawned via commands/spawn-eggs) and to give them an emerald; this will make them join your side. Once you have knights on your side, they will attack anything you attack and attack anything that attacks you; for convienence, you can put them on leads.
What Does The "Memory Loss" Potion Do: The Memory Loss Potion reverts certain transformations of entities (for example: a knight, witch, or pillager will transform into a villager) and for other entities not on the list: it will give heavy nausea & slowness, untame them (if tamed), and make them forget who they are following/attacking.
How Does The Brutality Enchantment Work: The Brutality Enchantment for axes is slightly complicated. It basically adds a second tick of damage and a 2nd cooldown (shown on the item whilst in your hotbar), both ranging based off the level of the enchantment (there are 2 levels). However, if you attack while the 2nd cooldown isn't finished, damage will be dealt to you too.
Why Are Ghost Charms So Expensive: Balancing.
