About this Mod
This mod adds many custom totems! These totems give you effects such as strength and health boost. This mod is pretty balanced because the totems are not very easy to obtain!

To get the custom totems you will need new items called "Essences"

When you kill a vindicator, it has a chance of dropping The Essence of the Totem, which could be used to craft an Empty Totem (All the crafting recipes are in the images tab).

You will use the empty totem with an Essence (and some other items) to create the new totems!
Piglin brutes now have a chance to drop The Essence of Wrath (it is used to craft The Totem of Wrath which gives you strength 2 and health boost 3)

Elder Guardians have a chance of dropping The Essence of Water (it is used to craft The Totem of Water which gives you water breathing and dolphin's grace)

Villagers have a chance of dropping The Essence of The Village (it is used to craft The Totem of The Village which gives you hero of the village 8)

Ravagers have a chance of dropping The Essence of The Mine (it is used to craft The Totem of The Mine which gives you haste 2)

Hoglins have a chance of dropping The Essence of Gluttony (it is used to craft The Totem of Gluttony which regenerates your hunger (it doesn't give you saturation because that would be too overpowered))

Ghasts have a chance of dropping The Essence of Invisibility (it is used to craft The Totem of Invisibility which makes you invisible)

Turtles have a chance of dropping The Essence of Protection (it is used to craft The Totem of Protection which gives you resistance 2)

You can also craft The Totem of Everything from all the custom totems and a nether star which gives you all of the effects of every custom totem.

Regular Totems of Undying also have a different crafting recipe. Evokers have a chance of dropping The Essence of Udying (it is used to craft The Totem of Undying which gives you a secong life)

You can use this mod to play with friends or you could use it in a server!
