Stellarity

Stellarity is a data pack (sometimes packaged as a mod) which heavily rehauls The End, giving it new terrain shapes, biomes, as well as items and weapons and even new mechanics.

Instead of following a usual theme of a 'Minecraft: Dungeons' styled expansion or making it an alien-like dimension, Stellarity mixes the usual motif of a desolate dimension with themes of strong magic and fantasy.

Note: Stellarity is now managed under a new team. Support will no longer be provided in kohara's Basement, and has been moved to the Prismatic Shards Discord server.

Features

Note: this section was updated to reflect what the 26.x versions have to offer.

Terrain Generation

No shaders so that you can see it clearer.

A total of 23 new biomes has been added, including 4 rehauled vanilla end biomes (technically only two of them since the other two serve no purpose in vanilla).

Biomes in Stellarity can be divided into 4 categories:

• Fields - open and mostly covered with grass.
• Barrens - usually hilly and desolate, featuring a low variety of blocks in their generation.
• Forests - well, it's a forest... really not much to say here.
• Frozen - sub-variants of existing biomes, featuring a sad white color palette, or in other words just frozen.

The screenshot above shows 3 biomes: in the front are Crystal Crags (barrens), on the right right is The Nest (also barrens), behind them there are End Midlands (fields), in the center there are Ender Wastes (barrens) and far back there are End Wilds (fields). Look into the image gallery for more biome showcases.

Islands are also no longer bound to one Y level, meaning that the terrain shape has a huge variety of shapes.

Items

Right after defeating the Ender Dragon, the Altar of The Accursed awakens. It is a powerful crafting station used to craft late-game gear added by Stellarity. It doesn't have a GUI and is used by simply tossing the right amount of ingredients on top of it. There is no JEI support for the recipes yet, but you can refer to the wiki for most recipes.

I don't actually know how many items Stellarity introduces, I didn't count them, but there are at least 40 different new items for you to find and have fun with. This number includes new potion variants, food items, weapons and even 4 new armor sets with their own effects and set bonuses.

I tried to balance them both in between vanilla standards as well as making them meaningful in heavily modded scenarios where there would be plenty of bosses to defeat.

If the weapon abilities don't feel vanilla, that's because they aren't supposed to - most of them were inspired by games like Terraria, meaning that they don't follow the one-dimensional design MC weapons have, that being just click and damage.

Mechanics

Stellarity isn't just all about world generation and gear - it also adds many mechanics to The End unique in their own ways.

Shown above is what I like to call Cauldron crafting - tossing a bottle of Dragon's Breath into a Water cauldron dilutes it and allows for crafting of items via tossing them into the Cauldron. There are more than a dozen of recipes for it, most of them revolving around new food items or potions that combine effects.

Those recipes aren't in the recipe book, and JEI doesn't work for them, but for now you can view everything here.

Stellarity also adds Void Fishing! Cast your Fishing Rod anywhere into the air below you in The End (but not directly into The Void - no fish dare to swim that low) and wait until something bites your hook! Almost every End biome has its own loot table with a variety of items you can catch in the process, including (but not limited to!) a few new types of fish.

Other smaller mechanics which aren't really that notable:

List

• Elytras produce small trails while flying. They can be customized with all 16 of vanilla Dyes on the Altar of The Accursed, each having a unique trail. Combine with a Water Bucket to remove applied dye.

Let me know if you'd want to see compatibility with other mods that add dyes! It was fun designing all of the trails and I'll gladly do some more if requested.

• Tridents with Loyalty return to the player when falling into the void. Because why was it even possible to lose them that way.
• Totems of Undying save players from falling into The Void. Players will be teleported 200 blocks upwards and will be granted the Slow Falling e
