Folclore Brasileiro Mod (26.3)
Folclore Brasileiro Mod brings nine creatures from Brazilian folklore into Minecraft, and each one plays by the rules of its legend. You can’t kill the Saci with a sword. The Curupira punishes anyone who wrecks the forest, and the Iara pulls you into the river if you stare at her. Some creatures steal from you, some protect nature, and some only show up on special nights. Beat them the right way and they leave behind useful items with special powers.
Features:
- Legend-Based Rules: Every creature has its own weakness or trigger from Brazilian folklore, so normal fighting doesn’t always work.
- Forest Protection: Cutting too many trees, hunting too many wild animals, or lighting fires near the forest brings angry guardians after you.
- Curse Breaking: Some creatures are cursed, and you can free them instead of just killing them.
- Special Rewards: Creatures drop items like caps, hats, scales, and claws that give you speed, night vision, water breathing, and more.
- Creatures you call with a command or spawn with an egg stay around after sunrise.
- You can change how often each creature appears, or turn any of them off.
Creatures:
- Saci: a one-legged boy in a red cap who arrives in a whirlwind, steals an item from your inventory, and hops away laughing. Weapons can’t hurt him, so throw a Sieve (Peneira) over him to catch him and get your item back. He also blows out torches and ties horses’ manes into knots.
- Curupira: the forest guardian with flaming hair and backward feet. Chop too many trees or hunt too many wild animals and you hear a whistle and find footprints pointing the wrong way. Keep going and he comes to make you lose your way. Plant saplings to be forgiven, or give him honey to calm him down.
- Boitatá: a giant fire serpent with huge shining eyes. It glides over fields at night and puts out every fire it passes, but it chases you if you light a fire near the forest.
- Headless Mule (Mula sem Cabeça): gallops at night with fire where her head should be, especially from Thursday to Friday. Tire her out, then pull off her iron bridle with your bare hand to break the curse.
- Iara: sings in rivers at night. Looking at her pulls you into the water, and reaching her drags you to the bottom. Look away to break the spell.
- Boto: a pink river dolphin by day that saves drowning swimmers. At night, he turns into a young man in a white suit and hat who dances by the shore and gives you presents in exchange for a fish. Knock his hat off to see his true form.
- Cuca: an alligator-headed witch who comes for players who haven’t slept for three nights. She throws potions and puts you into a heavy sleep. Go to bed and she gives up.
- Lobisomem: a man who turns into a wolf on full-moon nights. Hurt him enough and the curse breaks, showing he was a villager all along who remembers nothing.
- Mapinguari: a smelly one-eyed giant from the Amazon jungle with a mouth in its belly. Its tough hide blocks almost every hit, so strike it from the front, right in the belly mouth.
Special Items:
- Sieve (Peneira): the only tool that can catch the Saci.
- Saci’s Cap: makes you faster, and no Saci can rob you while you wear it.
- Saci in a Bottle: hold a glass bottle in your other hand when you catch the Saci. It gives you five favours, each one a whirlwind that brings every loose item to your feet, and then he pops the cork and escapes.
- Boitatá Eye: gives you night vision and fire resistance.
- Iron Bridle: makes your own horse much faster.
- Iara Scale: lets you breathe and swim like the Iara.
- Boto’s Hat: lets you swim fast and hold your breath longer.
- Mapinguari Claw: a brutal weapon.
Commands:
/folclore: brings that creature next to you. It won’t leave at sunrise./folclore desmatamento [value]: shows or sets your “forest debt” for the Curupira.
Configuration:
config/folclore.json: sets how often each creature appears. Set a creature to 0 to turn it off.
