About this Mod
This mod adds scythes of three types that can be used for some pretty cool combat mechanics!
Spell books can be obtained by trading with villagers, while scythes can be easily crafted!

The Iron Scythe has the ability to snatch speed, and has durability. It can be crafted with two sticks and 3 ingots like so:
| Col1 | Col2 | Col3 |
|---|---|---|
| Iron | Iron | [Empty] |
| [Empty] | Stick | Iron |
| Stick | [Empty] | [Empty] |
The diamond scythe's crafting is exactly the same, but with diamonds instead of iron, and can push mobs into the ground.
The golden one is made with gold ingots, and summons evoker fangs at the target, while also making you invisible for a couple of seconds
