Mythbound Magic

This mod adds magic to Hytale! To be able to cast most spells, you will need Cindercloth armor until I put my own armor in.

The mod revolves around creating a grimoire that holds the knowledge of a spell, and a spellcasting tool that imprints the specific spell from the grimoire to cast it. I wanted spells to be physical things that can eventually be placed on bookshelves so mages can have an actual library of spells. This will tie into the staff logic of having 1 item with multiple spells available.

Available spells:

Barrier I: Conjures a protective barrier that absorbs all incoming damage. Coalesce I: Pulls all dropped items to the caster within a 10 block range. Endless Breath: Grants the ability to breathe under water. Flame Bolt I: Shoots a blazing bolt of fire, dealing fire damage to the target. Fly: Grants the ability of flight. Frost Bolt I: Shoots a dense bolt of ice, dealing frost damage to the target. Lich Form I: Shapeshift's the caster into a lich granting +50 max mana and +5mp a second for the buff duration. Doesn't stack with other shapeshifting buffs. Mage Armor I: Grants the caster +25 max health and + 8% physical/projectile protection for the buff duration. Resist Fire I: Grants the caster fire protection for the buff duration. Shadow Bolt I: Shoots a dense bolt of shadows, dealing void damage to the target. Spirit of Bear I: Shapeshift's the caster into a bear granting +100 max health for the buff duration. Doesn't stack with other shapeshifting buffs. Spirit of Treant I: Shapeshift's the caster into a treant granting +2 health a second at the cost of movement speed for the buff duration. Standing still in light increases the effect. Doesn't stack with other shapeshifting buffs. Spirit of Wolf I: Shapeshift's the caster into a wolf granting increased runspeed by 1.5x for the buff duration. Doesn't stack with other shapeshifting buffs. Swiftness: Applies a powerful runspeed buff to all players by 2x within 5 blocks of the caster.

Available soulstone mounts:

- Antelope - Grizzly Bear - Polar Bear - Crab - Crocodile - Doe - Stag - Emberwulf - Earth Crystal Golem - Flame Crystal Golem - Frost Crystal Golem - Sand Crystal Golem - Thunder Crystal Golem - Snow Leopard - Lobster - Mosshorn - Ram - Scorpion - Sheep - Spider - Cave Spider - Sabertooth Tiger - Black Wolf - White Wolf

Known Issues: - Currently it seems like the game's buff system doesn't preserve player custom models on reloading. I have faith that they will get around to fixing it. :D

I plan on greatly expanding this over time. The goal is to figure out each system and build up as I go.

The some of the upcoming spells will be: - Spirit of Whale - Stealth - Summon Minion (throw items in the world to create a custom combat pet, ie bone + essence of fire make a fire skeleton mage) - More Resist spells. - Many many more!

Planned features: - Meditation system to increase max mana temporarily. - Rituals from drawing runes using magic chalk. - Spell schools (Evocation, Alteration, Incantation, and Conjuration) - Spell tiers of power. - Magic plants and woods. - Rifts / portal nodes. - Magical creatures. - Expansion to the mounting system (More mounts, color variantions, flying creatures) - Dedicated shard world for a mage to call home.
