Essence System
Harness the Essences of mobs to forge a new Aspect:
- Each mob has 1–3 Essences (like Aquatic, Fire, Undead, etc.)
- Use the Essence Extractor to collect them, or just kill them, that works too
- Store them in an Essence Cage
- Combine specific Essences to awaken an Aspect
Essence Combinations
Essence Combinations can also just be a singular Essences, like Human below.
Essences add up to 120 total regardless of amount of Essence Types.
So 1 Essence type means it takes 120 to create an aspect, 2 types means its a 60/60 split, 3 means 40/40/40 split, etc..
- Humanoid → Human
- Aquatic → Merling
- Void + Humanoid → Enderian
- Bug + Plant → Honey Bee
(Full combination list available in-game or on the Wiki soon

FAQ
How to change my Aspect after the first one?
1. Craft an Essence Cage (optionally an Essence Extractor too)2. Kill or extract mobs to gather Essences
3. Store enough Essences to create an Awakened Essence Cage
4. Consume the Awakened Essence Cage to choose your new Aspect
My Mods button is overlapping the Aspects button in the Pause Menu!
This issue can be the fault of the Mod Menu (Fabric) mod itself, you can fix it by going into the Mod Menu settings and changing Game Menu option to anything else, except for insert.Can I add new Aspects myself?
Yes, the datapack allows new Aspects via add-on datapacks, although it’s not as easy as we’d like.
A guide will be made available soon on the project’s GitHub page.
