Metahuman Origins
This mod adds ~100 superpowers to origins in place of regular origins
About this Mod
THIS DATAPACK IS ABANDONED, I HAVE PLANS TO RENEW IT AS A MOD IN FUTURE. Join the discord to keep up with its development https://discord.gg/ndZ97GJ9MG
This datapack adds roughly 100 different superpowers that replace the original origins.
There's a 40% chance upon initial spawn to gain a metapower (all powers have an equal chance to obtain), if you don't gain one then you must obtain one through various means; some powers have multiple ways to obtain them (eg: obtain cactus powers by eating cacti) though all of them can be obtained by pressing primary with dragon's breath in your hand.
Some powers may not be only positive as most provide some kind of related weakness to balance themselves out, sometimes altering the way a player will play the game entirely such as toggleable invincibility in turn for immobility; however the impact the power has is a general sign of how powerful the power is, eg: impact 3 powers are typically stronger than 1 and 2.
All metapowers can be wiped by eating a golden apple whilst having the weakness potion effect.
