Some things in the datapack

See the images and more informations below

Letterbox


A block that allows you to trade items every day (or just Saturday for letters). You can view items that you can trade every day in your letterbox by typing /trigger help

NPC Quests

All NPCs that spawns in an area with a Territory Flag have 3 quests generated randomly, a basic, a medium and an advanced quest, where by completing them you can obtain special items.

NPC Contracts


There are two types of contracts: Contract: Buy Day and Contract: Quest Completed. The first is used for the NPC to stay another day on the location after night, and the second item you trade with the NPC to prove that you completed a quest.

Magic Stone

Magic stones are one of the most important items in this datapack. With them, you can create and upgrade rods, trade with NPCs, among other things.

Magic Table

Using magic stone you can obtain various items on magic table, such as: teleportation books, magic sticks, rods, bombs, temporary beacons and others items.

Modification Table


The Modification Table is used for upgrade your rods and your boots (Adding a slow falling or jump boost effect).

Rods

Great for ranged attacks, rods are a great weapon for fighting enemies.

There are 5 types of rods: Fangs Rod, Fire Rod, Ice Rod, Gunpowder Rod and Damage Rod.

Teleport Book

A great tool for fast travel between places. A single Teleport book can be used 5 times.

You need to be in the same dimension to travel.

Totems


Using totems you can summon some spells, such as speeding up the growth of mobs and crops and change the weather.

Improvements

Improvements are items to increase some attributes of iron golems, so that they become more useful to the player, mainly for the defense of territories.

Territory Flag

Territory flags are very useful for your world. With them you can protect your buildings from other players, since only you can build in your territory... Read more below.

And more!

More Informations & Images

Letterbox System

All players initially receive a Letterbox and an initial quest, with the letterbox you can trade items, just put the items stored and wait until the next day, or in the case of letters until Saturday (Letters are usually sold by NPCs, and they contain special items, such as spawn eggs).

To see the list of items you can trade just run the command /trigger help

You can receive some gifts if you make a lot of trades in the letterbox.

NPCs

Every 5 days an NPC spawns up to 80 blocks away from a letterbox. There are 4 types of NPCs: Wizard, Cultivator, Pet Seller and Guard. Guards only spawn in areas of territory. (Learn more about territories below)

Cultivators have a small chance of planting a tulip as they travel the world, and every Pet Seller spawns with a sheep with the color of the banner that he is near.

If a letterbox is in an area of territory, the NPC that spawns will have 3 quests, a basic, a medium and an advanced quest.

All NPCs despawn at night, you can buy the services of this NPC for another day, using the Contract they sell.

Magic System

The whole magic system revolves around the magic stone, you can obtain them by completing quests, trade with a letterbox (if you make a lot of trades, you can get magic stone, and other items) or trading with the NPC Wizard.

Territory System

Territory flags are very useful for your world. With them you can protect your buildings from other players, since only you can build in your territory.

In addition, every NPC that spawns over a distance of 80 blocks will have 3 quests so you can fulfill them, and the contract price is reduced. However, at night we have new mobs, like Wizard and Warrior. To help fight them we have a new NPC that only spawns in areas of territory, the Guard.

In addition, any NPC in an area of territory has a reduced contract price.

Agressive Mobs

We have 4 new mobs: Frog, Troll, Wizard Illager and Warrior Illager. The 4 only spawn from height 60 to 255.

Frog works similar to Piglin, if you don't attack it will stay calm, unless it takes some damage. Frogs drop Frog's Foot, which serves to give Jump Boost on boots, they are also equipped with Knife, which work like iron swords, but faster. The chances of a frog spawns in a swamp is bigger than in other biomes.

Troll are slower and do not receive knockback, are immune to rods, bows and potions, the best way to kill them is with hand-to-hand combat. Trolls drop Tree Trunk, which are used to create rods and totems. They also drop other items, like suspicious stew, which has a random potion. The chances of a troll spawns in a dark forest is bigger than in other biomes.

Wizard Illager only spawns in places close to a territory, they have the ability to teleport, in addition to using the rod to attack players from a certain distance, and Sharp Axe if the player is too close. Wizards can drop Magic Feather, which serves to Slow Falling boots.

Warrior Illager also spawns only in locations close to a territory. They are fast and equipped with Sharp Axe. There is a probability that the Warrior will be a captain, in which case he will be stronger, have a shield and can apply the bad_omen effect.
