About this mod

Versions 1.16.5 and below require Forge whereas versions 1.20.1 and above may support other versions!
I have looked into Fabric but I'd have to rebuild the entire mod, and Forge is still going strong and is still the king of modded Minecraft with no signs of stopping. Be sure to support the Forge devs, as without them there would be no mods like there are today. Fabric is cool, but I have no plans to make a Fabric version for now. However, this mod is open source, so anyone is welcome to take up the challenge!
1.19+ is currently in development. This mod is 8+ years old, and so I am doing a complete code rewrite as a new mod to be called Schism to clear the technical debt!

This mod adds over 100 new mobs to specific biomes, dimensions, and more. These mobs range from peaceful Makas, farmable mammal-like reptiles with massive sails, to horrific Grues that are made of the very shadows themselves. Watch out for the alphas! Expect to see angry elementals such as Cinders spawning from large fires or Spriggans from tall grass and crops.
You can find a list of creatures here: Lycanites Mobs Wiki: Creatures
Featuring a Beastiary, Taming and Summoning
You can tame your very own mount such as a Warg and bind it to you with a Soulstone, allowing you to summon and dismiss it at will as well as have it respawn after death. Or perhaps you'd be more interested in crafting a Summoning Staff or Summoning Pedestal to summon your very own minion horde, either on the field of battle or at your base to stand guard while you are away or resting.

Forge Powerful Equipment from Body Parts!
Lycanites Mobs now has an Equipment System. Creatures will sometimes drop Equipment Parts, which can then be assembled in an Equipment Forge to create powerful tools and weapons that look weird and wonderful depending on what you mix together!

Massive Randomised Dungeon System
Lycanites Mobs also includes a Dungeon System, which is super configurable via JSON files where custom dungeons can be added and existing dungeons can be completely changed. Dungeons can be very challenging with a boss on each floor, but offer grand rewards! You can also create your own custom dungeons via the dungeon configs.

Colossal Final Bosses and Random Events
This mod also adds optional special events, which can be turned on via the config or using the command /lm mobevents enable. These events will start at random intervals, which are highly configurable, and will spawn waves of mobs!
This mod also adds giant bosses like Rahovart, Asmodeus, and Amalgalich, which must be summoned by building an altar and using a Soul Key to activate a Boss Event.

Full Customisation of Mobs, Spawners, Items, Dungeons, Events and More!
Lycanites Mobs comes with a heavily customisable JSON Spawner System where you have absolute control over how every mob spawns, and you can even control the spawn of mobs from other mods or vanilla if desired.
