Accents focuses on visual expression. From hats and accessories to back-mounted items, every piece is designed to complement your character rather than replace armor or equipment.
Every accent can be dyed, but not always entirely. Each item defines its own colorable areas: a Top Hat can be recolored fully, while a Pirate Hat only allows changing the feather. This keeps designs readable while still offering customization.
Accents are not purely decorative. Each item provides a small, situational bonus that feels rewarding without overshadowing core progression. For example, a Sheathed Katana grants +5% damage while worn on the back.
Built-in compatibility with Curios API and Trinkets API. When either mod is installed, certain accents automatically become trinkets and can be equipped in dedicated slots. Without them, all items still function normally.
All bonuses provided by accents can be adjusted through a config file. You can fine-tune values, rebalance items for modpacks, or disable specific effects entirely while keeping the cosmetics intact.
On Minecraft 1.20.1, in-game configuration menus are available when using Forge Config Screens or Configured. Without these mods, all settings can still be adjusted through config files (config/obscuria/accents-common.toml). Starting with Minecraft 1.21.1, in-game config screens are available out of the box, with no additional dependencies required.
Accents plays nicely with appearance-only armor mods such as Cosmetic Armor Reworked. You can keep your armor hidden or styled separately while still wearing accents for their visuals.
Many accents were added because someone suggested them. If you have an idea – a style, theme, or small bonus – it's very likely to be considered.
