Kumodesu: Ascension: KumoGods

# KumoDesu: Gods

**An addon for KumoDesu: Ascension that brings the gods of *Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?* into the world and lets you leave the System to become one.**

Gueliedistodiez, Sariel, and D now walk your world. They have no real health. Their life is their **MA energy**, and the only thing that can drain it is *your* MA energy. Your sword doesn’t matter. Your enchantments don’t matter. That modded weapon that does 2 billion damage doesn’t matter. If you want to kill a god, you have to become strong enough to stand next to one.

## The Gods

| God | MA energy | Kill reward (your MA) |
|—|—|—|
| **Sariel** | 2,000,000 | +200,000 |
| **Gueliedistodiez** | 50,000,000 | +5,000,000 |
| **D** | 1,000,000,000 | +100,000,000 |

– **MA is their health.** Every hit that lands drains exactly **5% of the attacker’s MA**, no matter how much damage the weapon does.
– **Overpowered weapons don’t help. **** Infinite damage, armor-piercing, i-frame skipping: none of it matters. Each attacker can drain a god at most twice a second.
– **The world can’t kill them.** Fire, falling, poison, `/kill`, and soul damage do nothing. Only something alive can hurt a god. The void still claims them.
– **Harmful effects don’t stick.**
– **They’re neutral.** Gods only fight back when attacked.
– **They recover. **** After 10 seconds out of combat, a god slowly regenerates its MA.
– **They’re outside the System. **** Appraisal finds nothing at all on them. Not “blocked”, not divine protection: to the System, nothing is there. This includes unblockable appraisal.
– **Slaying one is worth it. **** You receive a tenth of the god’s max MA, and every equipped weapon and armor piece absorbs MA as well.

A fresh reincarnation with 1,000 MA drains 50 MA per hit, so Sariel would take hours. Grow your MA by hunting, then come back.

## Becoming a God

Like in the novel, a god is someone who has left the System.

> **Note:** this is just a simple, stand-in way to reach godhood. The creator of KumoDesu: Ascension plans to add godhood to the main mod eventually. When that arrives, the official version should take priority, and this addon’s godhood may change or be retired to match it.

### The MA Bomb

Craft an **MA Bomb** and pour out your MA energy to break free:

“`
 A  D  A        A = Amethyst Shard
 D  N  D        D = Diamond
 A  D  A        N = Nether Star
“`

– You need at least **1,000,000 MA** to use it.
– Your chance of success is **100%, minus 5% for every skill you hold**. A player clinging to 20 skills will never make it.
– **Skill Elimination** is the way: let it erase your skills until there’s almost nothing left, then use the bomb. Skill Elimination itself doesn’t count against you.
– Your **Divinity Field is always kept**.
– **On failure:** the MA tears through you. Every skill is erased and your MA falls back to 1,000.
– **On success:** the System lets go of you. Every skill is gone, your **MA is multiplied by 10**, and you are a god.

### Life as a god

– **MA is your health**, with the same rules as the god mobs. Only living attackers can drain you, each hit takes 5% of *their* MA, and falls, fire and `/kill` do nothing. When your MA runs out, you die.
– **No skills, no skill menu.** The System no longer answers you. Any skill it tries to give you fades away.
– **No System announcements.** The voice in your head is gone, and so is the skill bar in the corner of your screen.
– **You can’t be appraised.**
– **Your stats stay the same.**
– **Dying:** with KumoDesu’s `rpgMode` gamerule on, death resets you like any other reincarnation and your godhood is lost. With it off, you remain a god.

### MA display

A small MA bar in the top-left corner shows your current MA energy:
– **As a god** it’s your life.
– **Before ascending** it shows your progress towards the MA Bomb’s threshold.

## Commands (operators)

| Command | What it does |
|—|—|
| `/kumogods ma <targets>` | Show the MA of gods and players |
| `/kumogods setma <targets> <amount>` | Set MA (setting a god to 0 kills it) |
| `/kumogods slay <targets>` | Kill gods (vanilla `/kill` won’t) |
| `/kumogods godhood <players> <true\|false>` | Make players gods without the roll, or return them to the System |

## Configuration

`config/kumogods-common.toml` lets you tune:
– each god’s MA and attack,
– the 5% drain per hit and the per-attacker cooldown,
– god regeneration,
– the appraisal rule,
– every ascension number: MA needed, penalty per skill, MA multiplier, and MA after a failed attempt.

## Requirements

– **Minecraft 1.20.1** with **Forge 47.4.x or newer** (Ascension Core API won’t load on older 47.x builds)
– **KumoDesu: Ascension 0.3.6** (the *0.3.6-hotfix* file). Ascension Core API 0.3.6 only works with exactly this KumoDesu version.
– **Ascension Core API 0.3.6**
– KumoDesu’s own dependencies: **GeckoLib 4.8+**, **TerraBlender**, **CustomHitboxLib 1.3.8+**

Install on both the client and the server.

## Notes

– The gods currently use simple player-style models with placeholder skins.- This is an unofficial fan addon. *Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?* belongs to Okina Baba and Tsukasa Kiryu. KumoDesu: Ascension and Ascension Core API belong to their respective authors, and this addon is not affiliated with them.
