Metalborn

Metalborn is a Minecraft mod that presents a unique interpretation of Feruchemy from Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series. Feruchemy is the art of storing power in metals. When you store energy, you temporarily become weaker, but later you can use the accumulated power to significantly enhance your abilities.

When installing the mod, each player receives a random feruchemical ability associated with a specific metal type. The mod features various mechanics: you can change your ability through loot, share power with other players, or even steal additional abilities from monsters. A new ore has been added - tin, which together with iron, gold, and copper is used to create various metals in a special metallurgical furnace.

To start the game, combine a tin ingot with a book to get the mod's guidebook. It's also recommended to install JEI to view recipes.

• Iron: stores weight - affects knockback and gravity
• Steel: stores speed - increases movement speed, attack speed, and mining speed
• Tin: stores sight - provides night vision or temporary blindness

• Silver: stores luck - increases or decreases loot from entities
