Moveset MOD
Become an ancient mage. Float weightless, tear across the sky at 72 blocks/s, and bend the world with four spells.
What is this?The Slayer : Moveset is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that turns you into an ancient mage.
Press R and a sigil blooms beneath you, a column of light erupts and a staff appears in your hands. From there you float with a slow, breathing bob, hold Sprint to fly wherever you look, and cast four spells that carve real craters, tunnels and molten pits into the world.
Every magic circle, lightning bolt and fire flipbook was rendered in Blender, every animation was keyframed by hand, and every sound was synthesized from scratch. The scripts that made them are all in the repository.

/slayer form, /slayer cooldowns reset, /slayer reload
The spellbookFour spells, all cast with the staff and aimed where you look. Pick one from the hotbar, or press its key.
Two wide arcs of 24 white-violet magic circles open behind you and fire a barrage of piercing beams that track your aim.
A layered, three-ring sigil then drinks in mana before the staff and releases a colossal beam, with shock rings racing down its length. Every beam bores a tunnel through terrain and detonates on impact.
A storm vortex and a giant violet sigil open 58 blocks above the target. About 48 lightning bolts rain across a 36-block radius, cratering everything.
Then seven bolts converge into one annihilating strike, crowned by a pillar of light.
A crimson sigil burns into the ground while embers pour out and the air ripples.
Hellfire erupts in a towering column of Mantaflow-simulated fire, blasting a 20-block molten crater under a pillar of black smoke, followed by secondary eruptions around the rim.
Born as a speck at the crystal of your staff, it drifts up into the sky and swells into a singularity with a blazing accretion disk, a glowing photon ring and real gravitational lensing.
It tears up the land, swallows mobs and items, and finally collapses into a cataclysmic blast.
The preview above is drawn live in your browser with the mod's own textures. Sounds are the mod's own too.
Advancements unlockedEverything else the Slayer can do.
Double-tap Jump to float: slow, breathing drift with the staff held across your body. You hover above the ground instead of scraping it.
Sprint + Forward for full flight up to 72 blocks/s. Break the threshold for an FOV surge, sonic boom, vapor cone, speed lines and rushing wind.
No fall damage while transformed. Your form is saved and survives relogs and death.
The camera pulls back over your shoulder while you cast and banks into turns while you fly.
Magic circles, lightning, the staff, every animation and the Mantaflow fire and smoke all come from Blender.
Works with Iris shader packs. Effects are drawn over the pack's finished image, so they never get dimmed or fogged away.
Toggle terrain destruction, scale blast size, set a destruction budget, choose block drops and PvP damage.
Craters are carved a slice per tick and spells never force unloaded chunks to load.
Every sound, from the sonic boom to the black hole's drone, was synthesized from scratch.
