A spellcasting mod built around a Magic Lens: learn spells, explore an old library's dungeon, kill a sleeping god for its power, and earn the favor (or attention) of something that's begun to watch you.
Spoiler
This mod adds: Core spellcasting
Magic Lens — the central item; equip up to 5 spells at once, cast/cycle with keybinds
Mana system with a capacity that grows through merging lenses (up to 5x merge tier)
16 unique spells across offense, utility, and support: Fireball, Frost Bolt, Lightning Strike, Chain Lightning, Meteor Shower, Poison Bolt, Life Drain, Shockwave, Arrow Volley, Heal, Blink, Arcane Shield, Haste Surge, Gravity Pull, Summon Ally, Invisibility
Ancient Spell Books (dungeon loot) to learn new spells
Diamond Engraver + Inscription Workbench for duplicating/customizing a lens's spell loadout
Lens Combiner to merge two lenses into one, raising max mana and slot count
Mana infrastructure
Soul Pedestal — burns soul sand + items to generate mana
Lens Pedestal — charges a placed lens automatically, links to nearby Soul Pedestals
Soul Feeder — auto-feeds items into a linked Soul Pedestal, no manual restocking
Exploration
A library with an entrance to a multi-room dungeon with tunnels, treasure rooms, and dangers
A Faith Shrine structure, separate from the main dungeon
A sunken boss chamber holding The One Who Sleeps
The boss fight
The One Who Sleeps — a boss with its own arena
Sleeping God armor set (fire-immune) that grants temporary flight, scaled by accumulated Faith
The Faith economy
Faith Altars — burn items in soul fire for Faith, with diminishing returns to discourage bulk-farming one item
Weird Amulet — private Faith readout on right-click
The Hunger (post-boss meta-progression)
- A watching presence that starts after defeating the boss, scaling with Faith and repeat kills
- Random blessing/burden moments with visible apparitions and status effects
- A semi-permanent one-way "eyes revealed" milestone that changes the sun and moon's appearance (per-player, not server-wide)
- Sun and Moon Ward — reversible toggle to hide the changed sky
- Tokens of the Hunger, spent on a choice between The Hunger's Boon (extends blessing duration) or The Hunger's Bindings (burn to shift blessing/burden odds, with bonus effects at high levels)
- The Hunger Tower — a landmark that rises once the eyes are revealed, with a permanent idol on top offering cryptic teaser dialogue
Guide book
- A full in-game Arcane Guide (Patchouli-based) covering every system above
Advancements
- A progression tree from crafting your first lens through defeating the boss and mastering all 16 spells
