Summoning Rituals is a powerful mod designed specifically for Minecraft NeoForge that allows modpack developers and server administrators to create custom summoning rituals for items, mobs, and commands. This mod adds no recipes by default — instead, it provides a flexible framework for you to design your own mystical summoning experiences. Whether you want players to summon rare bosses, craft special items through ritual magic, or trigger custom commands, this mod gives you the tools to make it happen.
At its core, Summoning Rituals allows you to define multi-block ritual structures where players place specific items on pedestals around a central altar. When the ritual is activated, the mod consumes the ingredients and performs the configured action — summoning an entity, giving items to the player, or executing a command. The system is highly customizable and integrates seamlessly with popular modding tools.
✨ Native KubeJS Integration — The easiest way to create custom rituals is through KubeJS. With simple JavaScript syntax, you can define new summoning rituals, set ingredient requirements, specify output results, and configure ritual visuals. No Java coding required! Perfect for modpack makers who want to add magic-themed progression without building a full mod.
SummoningRituals.addRitual("my_ritual", ritual => {
ritual.requiresItem("minecraft:diamond", 4)
ritual.requiresItem("minecraft:gold_ingot", 8)
ritual.summonEntity("minecraft:wither")
ritual.setRitualTime(100)
});
What Can You Summon? — The possibilities are nearly endless. Summon any item directly into a player's inventory, spawn any mob (including custom mobs from other mods), execute any server command, or even trigger custom events. Each ritual can be configured with specific ingredient requirements, ritual time, particle effects, and sound effects to create a truly immersive magical experience.
Create rituals that summon custom weapons, armor, or rare materials when players complete the required offering.
Summon powerful bosses, friendly NPCs, or custom creatures as rewards or challenges for completing rituals.
Execute any server command as part of a ritual — teleport players, change game rules, or trigger datapack functions.
For modpack developers, Summoning Rituals is an invaluable tool for creating progression systems. Want players to craft a special item by performing a ritual instead of using a crafting table? Done. Want to gate certain bosses behind expensive ritual requirements? Easy. Need to create quest-driven summoning events? This mod has you covered. The ritual system is designed to be both powerful and intuitive, with extensive documentation available on the wiki.

Summoning Rituals is designed specifically for modpack developers and server owners. It adds no content by default — you decide what rituals exist, what they cost, and what they reward. This makes it an ideal foundation for creating unique magical systems, quest rewards, boss summoning mechanics, and custom progression paths. The native KubeJS integration means anyone familiar with basic JavaScript can create compelling rituals in minutes.
