Forbidden & ArcanusAether-themed magic — Eternal Stella, Hephaestus Forge, Stellarite gear, Aureal mana system

Version: 2.6.1 · MC 1.21.1 · NeoForge 21.1.228 · Java 21

About

Standalone magic mod with strong aesthetic identity. Three core systems: Hephaestus Forge (multi-block that imbues materials with Aureal mana for upgraded gear), Eternal Stella (rare endgame ingredient from a multi-step ritual chain), and Stellarite (boss-drop crafting material). Adds Cherubia (passive aerial mobs), Sun + Moon shards, dimensional gear. Excellent mid-game magic system between Ars Nouveau and Mahou Tsukai in complexity.

Things to do

Getting started

Spawn naturally on the Cherubia (find in Aether-like biomes). Read the in-game Forbidden Arcanus Patchouli for ritual chains.
