Peyro's Scythes & Spells
This mod is an add-on for Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks that introduces content from the light novel Savior from The Abyss (来自深渊的我今天也要拯救人类). It includes the iconic scythe of the protagonist Peyro, "Captain Greg", along with numerous spells such as Glacier Fall, Death Smoke, and Sinfire Embrace.
Familiarity with the original work is not required to use the mod—all items and spells are fully functional without knowledge of the storyline.
The mod offers a flexible configuration system through config files. You can adjust spell and effect multipliers, skill cooldowns, weapon attributes, and health regeneration speed. Additionally, using the datapack tag system, you can customize the list of entities immune to Death Smoke Erosion and determine which bosses drop the Lost Medal of the Pontifical Knight and Heart of the Wintermoon.
Note: The spells Crimson Moon, Frost Hell, and Made In Heaven are not present in the original novel and were added based on the author's personal interest.
Note: Due to the lack of a professional artist on the team, textures were created independently, so their quality may differ from standard pixel art. Updates are released slowly, and some planned spells cannot be implemented, even if technically feasible.

Captain Greg Donut 🍩
- One of Peyro's favorite treats. A hidden easter egg item.

Spells ⭐
Glacier Fall ❄
- An enhanced version of an ice block. Summons a massive iceberg above the target's head, which crashes down. Higher spell levels increase the size of the iceberg.
Icy Comet Rain ❄
- Calls down a shower of icy comets. Higher levels intensify the storm. Creatures hit too many times in a short period freeze solid.
Frost Hell ❄
- Strike the ground with your weapon to release a frost shockwave in a frontal cone. Damage scales with your weapon's attributes.
The Frozen World ❄
- Instantly lowers the surrounding temperature, generating snow and ice. Creatures near the caster take damage based on their maximum health and are immediately frozen, while a frost fog is created.
Death Smoke 😈
- Engulfs enemies in corrosive death smoke. When erosion reaches a critical level, the target dies instantly, restoring your health and mana.
Cradle of The Chaos 😈
- Creates a wide field of Abyssal Swamp and Death Smoke around you. Enemies within suffer periodic Death Smoke damage based on their maximum health (killing an enemy restores health and mana). While standing in the swamp, you gain Abyssal Grace, which prevents your next death. When Abyssal Grace triggers, the swamp disperses. Only one of your swamp fields can exist per dimension.
Young For You 😈
- Transforms the target creature into its baby form. If the spell level is 2 or higher, the target will no longer grow.
- Inspired by the phenomenon of "ceasing to grow up" among some characters in the novel. The name Young For You is taken from the song of the same name by the band GALA.
Black Flame Wings (Fake) 😈
- An alternative version of Angel Wings. Condenses chaotic fire into wings of black flame, continuously consuming mana, and grants additional Eldritch Spell Power, Spell Resist, armor toughness, and movement speed.
Black Fireball of Chaos 😈
- Hurls a black chaotic fireball that explodes and splits apart. Black Fire deals minor damage based on the target's maximum health and inflicts the Death Smoke Erosion effect.
Illusion: Be Fear 😈
- Fills the target with fear, forcing it to flee from the caster. Cannot coexist with Illusion: Be Crazy. Ineffective against certain creatures.
Illusion: Be Crazy 😈
- Drives the target into madness, causing it to attack nearby non-caster allies. Cannot coexist with Illusion: Be Fear. Ineffective against certain creatures.
Sinfire Embrace 🔥
- Sets yourself on fire, granting powerful health regeneration and igniting enemies on attack. Killing creatures extends the duration, but the effect ends immediately if the flames are extinguished.
- If cast in Creative Mode, the effect does not trigger as the fire cannot be lit.
"The Gate of Truth Party" 🔥
- Summons fanatical followers of the Gate of Truth (actually Blazes) to fight alongside you, shooting Firebolts. There is about a 20% chance to summon a Senator with greater health and an infinite health regeneration effect.
Crimson Moon 🩸
- Raises the Crimson Moon, applying Moon Frenzy to all creatures within range: increases attack damage, attack speed, Blood spell power, and restores the Crimson Moon's owner's health when dealing damage.
Holy Ray of Cardinal Nero ☀
- Briefly unleashes a piercing beam of holy light, dealing additional damage based on the target's missing health.
Holy Lance ☀
- Shoots a holy lance that pierces through targets.
Holy Bell ☀
- Summons the Holy Golden Bell to suppress foes. Entities within its range move extremely slowly, with reduced attack power and attack speed.
Made In Heaven ⏰
- Speeds Up Time. Accelerates the Daylight Cycle.
- There are two versions. The Real version can even Accelerate BlockEntities...
