Scrolls and Curses

Magic Scrolls for Enchanting

The Scrolls and Curses mod introduces special magic scrolls into the game that allow enchanting items without using an enchanting table. Simply hold the scroll in your main hand and the item to be enchanted in your offhand, then activate the scroll.

The game features several types of scrolls, each with its own characteristics:

Scroll Types

• Torn Magic Scroll - basic variant
• Magic Scroll - improved version
• Powerful Magic Scroll - the strongest of regular scrolls
• Cursed Scroll - special type with unique properties

The higher the quality of the scroll, the more powerful enchantments it can apply. All scrolls can be found in dungeons and other treasure locations throughout the Minecraft world.

Features of Scroll Enchanting

Enchanting with scrolls offers several important advantages:

• No experience required
• Can apply treasure enchantments unavailable through the enchanting table
• Works with any suitable items

Cursed Scroll

The Cursed Scroll works completely differently than regular magic scrolls:

• Gives only treasure enchantments
• Applies only one enchantment per use
• Can be used on already enchanted items

In most cases, this scroll applies cursed enchantments, but there's a small chance (4% by default) to get a regular treasure enchantment. The probability of getting a non-cursed enchantment increases with each already applied enchantment (and its level) on the item.

New Enchantments

The mod adds 6 new enchantments: 4 cursed and 2 regular treasure enchantments:

Treasure Enchantments

• Absorption (for chestplates) - grants absorption effect for 60 seconds after taking damage from a mob
• Amok (for weapons) - grants speed and strength for 10 seconds after killing an enemy (effect duration stacks)

Cursed Enchantments

• Curse of Ender (for armor) - has a chance to grant chaotic teleportation effect after taking damage from a mob
• Curse of Flames (for weapons) - has a chance to ignite enemy and sets the PLAYER on fire after attacking a burning enemy or enemy in lava
• Curse of Rust (for breakable items) - items lose 1 additional durability point with each use
• Curse of Vulnerability (for armor) - weakens all protection enchantments
