Lifesteal

Kill players to steal their hearts, if you die period, you lose a <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font>. Run out of hearts and you're eliminated, banned, or sent to spectator depending on server configuration. Revive players by crafting a <font color="#FF55FF">Beacon of Life</font> to respawn with three hearts.

Items

• <font color="#FF5555">Heart Fragment</font> — crafting ingredient for a <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font> or <font color="#FFAA00">Crafted Heart</font>.
• <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font> — right-click to gain a <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font>, raising your max health.
• <font color="#FFAA00">Crafted Heart</font> — same as a <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font>, but capped at a configurable limit.
• <font color="#FF55FF">Beacon of Life</font> — right-click to open the revival menu, listing every eliminated player, then select a player to be revived.

Commands

• /withdraw <amount> — converts hearts back into <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font> or <font color="#FFAA00">Crafted Heart</font> items.
• /revive — opens the revival menu for admins.
• /deathban <name|uuid> — eliminates a player by name or UUID.

Unique Items

The <font color="#8A8993">Mace</font>, <font color="#433d40">Netherite Chestplate</font>, and <font color="#E079FA">Dragon Egg</font> are limited to one copy per server. While one exists, crafting or smithing another is blocked; destroying it reopens the recipe. The Dragon Egg is earned by defeating the Ender Dragon and will respawn at 0,0 in The Overworld upon defeating the Dragon once again. None of these items, along with <font color="#AA0000">Heart</font> items and the <font color="#FF55FF">Beacon of Life</font>, can be stored in containers — they only ever exist on players or the ground.

Configuration

Hearts, death handling, combat toggles, enchantment limits, item bans, and recipes are all adjustable through config files generated on first launch:

• config/lifesteal.json — core settings
• config/lifesteal-enchantments.json — per-enchantment level caps and bans
• config/lifesteal-recipes/ — fully editable crafting recipes, supporting modded items

Versions prior to 1.20 are not currently supported, though this may change. <font color="#9c52ca">Quilt</font> is supported via the <font color="#9c52ca">Quilted Fabric API</font>.
