Finding and Equipping the Red Dragon Totem in Survival and Creative

Getting the Totem in Survival or Creative

Because this resource pack only replaces item visuals, there is no separate crafting recipe or custom item ID for the dragon. It directly reskins the vanilla Totem of Undying. In Survival mode, obtain one the normal way by defeating Evokers in Woodland Mansions or village raids; when the drop lands on the ground, you will see a floating red dragon item instead of the usual gold charm. In Creative mode, open your inventory search menu and look up Totem of Undying—the item name stays the same while the slot displays the fierce red dragon.

Holding the Dragon in Your Off-Hand

For the totem to save your life from fatal damage, you must hold it in your main hand or off-hand. Open your inventory and place the red dragon into your shield slot, or highlight it on your hotbar and press your Swap Item With Offhand keybind. As you walk around in first-person view, you will carry the tiny winged beast at the side of your screen while keeping your main hand free for weapons and tools.
