About this Mod
This dark ritual summons Death itself using soul sand, 4 Wither skulls, and 12 lit black candles. Burn the black sheep in the soul fire to complete the summoning. Death wields a scythe whose damage is irreversible, permanently lowering your maximum health. Killing it grants the scythe, but if it is destroyed, the souls within are released, allowing your friends to respawn. Soul fragments grant unique powers: with the Enderman’s fragment, using right-click lets you teleport to random locations; with the Creeper’s fragment, using shift + right-click lets you explode without dying.
