Heartsteal: Crimson Pact

Heartsteal: Crimson Pact is a configurable Minecraft 26.2 NeoForge lifesteal mod built around collectible hearts, powerful heart weapons, player relationships, and a protected trading dimension.

Core features

• Every mob and player drops a Heart on death.
• Right-click Hearts to add permanent health, or press G to extract stored hearts.
• Players start with configurable maximum health and lose one heart per gameplay hour.
• Reaching zero hearts triggers a configurable lockout (24 hours by default).
• Build a Nether-style frame from red wool, red concrete, or redstone blocks and throw in a Heart to open the Heart Market.
• The Heart Market is a damage-free Adventure-mode trading post with protected heart traders.

Custom equipment

• Heart's Edge scales its damage and heart collection with the wielder's maximum health.
• Cupid's Bow has infinite arrows, animated charging, visible 3D arrows, Alliance mode, and two-target Hostility mode with forced AI control.
• Vitality Mace uses vanilla mace smash mechanics and bursts stolen hearts away from victims.
• Heart Spear uses the vanilla kinetic spear system, launches the player with Y, and bursts hearts on impact.
• Heart Pickaxe instantly mines a 3×3×3 area and produces hearts from broken blocks.
• Heart Rod and Heart Taser immobilize targets, extract hearts, and use custom red lightning entities with genetic damage.
• All custom equipment is unbreakable.

Server configuration includes starting health (2–20 health points), heart decay, lockout duration, extraction ranges and intervals, immobilization, player extraction, and Cupid relationship control.
