Faraway Moon
An add-on for Enhanced Celestials, adding a Faraway Moon that grants bad luck, and increases bad-luck related mobs spawns.
About this Mod
During the super rare Faraway Moon event, you will find yourself down in luck, as you have both bad omen, and the bad luck status effects. Be careful approaching a nearby village, as an immediate raid will ensue. Black cats, foxes, wolves, and bats all have increased spawns during the night, as well.
All credit for Enhanced Celestials goes to the original author CorgiTaco.
Credit as well to Draconic Archer for making many other add-ons for Enhanced Celestials!
