PotionAbilities Requires CraftedCore
You can do magic!
This mod allows you to unlock a random potion effect, you can apply on yourself or a nearby mob every time you want!
Getting Started
Search for a jungle temple (editable in the config). Once you found it, swim in water next to the temple (distance editable in the config).
You'll know that it worked, once you get blindness and confusion.
Now, you've got a random potion-ability, which you can use by pressing 'R'.
If you look at an entity while pressing the key, the effects will be applied to the entity, otherwise to you.
On the left-down corner, you'll see a potion. Once it disappeared, you can re-use your potion-ability.
Changes if the woodwalkers-mod is installed
If my woodwalkers-mod is found, you're only able to unlock a potion-ability, if you're shaped as a normal player but still enabled an entity as second Shape, that also applies for using potion-abilities.

Server lagging with PotionAbilities – how to optimize performance?
