About this mod

Description

Alshanex's Familiars mod is an addon for the Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks mod for minecraft Forge 1.20.1 and NeoForge 1.21, which adds new mobs called "Familiars", which can be found scattered around the world. These familiars can be tamed using Arcane Essence, which will make them follow you in your adventures and fight at your side using powerful spells.

These familiars can also be transported by using a Familiar Tome, and these tomes can be put in a Familiar Bed to recover the health of the pet contained in the tome.
