Getting Started

Requirements

This is a NeoForge mod for Minecraft 1.21.1. It requires:

Mod Version
Minecraft 1.21.1
NeoForge 21.1.233
Tensura: Reincarnated 2.0.1.0
MineColonies 1.1.1319
Nightmare's Tensura Utils 0.1.2

MineColonies Version Matters

This mod is built against MineColonies 1.1.1319. Older builds are known to crash and won't load — the crash screen names the incompatible version. Newer MineColonies builds are untested and may have changed things. If the game won't launch, check your MineColonies version.

MineColonies and Tensura each pull in their own dependencies. Install the full set your launcher or modpack lists.

How The Mod Works

The mod connects a named Tensura monster to a MineColonies citizen. The same creature can take either role and switch between them:

  • At your side — a Tensura creature with Existence Points (EP), skills, and combat behaviour.
  • In your colony — a MineColonies citizen with a job and work skills.

You move a creature between the two roles from the roster (press G): Send a subordinate into your colony to make it a citizen, or Summon a citizen back to your side. Switching costs magicule but keeps the creature's identity — its name, progress, and type carry across. See Races & Citizens for the full swap.

First Steps

  1. Found a colony the normal MineColonies way.
  2. Name a Tensura monster — a goblin, orc, dwarf, or lizardman — using Tensura's naming. A named monster becomes one of your subordinates.
  3. Send it to your colony to add it as a citizen, or keep it at your side. Use the roster (press G) to manage your named monsters and move them between roles.

From there, the colony earns reputation, the Tensura factions start tracking you, and you can pursue diplomacy or conquest. The whole faction layer is optional and can be disabled in the config.
