Soulforge Realms

# Soulforge Realms

Soulforge Realms brings a classic MMORPG-style progression loop into Minecraft: forge your gear, take contracts, hunt stronger enemies, defeat structure bosses, and return to town better prepared for the next run.

Instead of relying on random villager trading, converted settlements become protected sanctuaries with fixed NPC services. Merchants, blacksmiths, healers, scholars, cartographers, taskmasters, and stablemasters give players a reliable place to recover, upgrade, manage supplies, and plan the next adventure.

## Core Features

- Upgradeable RPG gear for supported vanilla weapons, armor, and tools
- Risky and protected upgrade paths with materials, repairs, rerolls, locks, and value transfer
- Player and mob power progression, including stronger enemies and better material rewards
- Structure bosses tied to major vanilla structures
- Task contracts such as deliveries, hunts, and ambushes
- Dynamic encounters, including ambushes and rare wanderers
- Protected sanctuaries with fixed NPC roles and self-healing snapshots
- Expanded ender chest storage, colored chests, sorting tools, death recovery, and personal stable horses
- Configurable, multiplayer-friendly systems designed for predictable server play

## Alpha Notice

Soulforge Realms is currently in alpha. Features, balance, commands, configs, worldgen, and saved data may change between versions.

For testing, use a new world or make backups before installing. Bug reports are most useful when they include the Minecraft version, NeoForge version, mod version, latest.log or crash report, and clear steps to reproduce the issue.

## Compatibility

- Loader: NeoForge
- Minecraft / NeoForge target: 26.1.2

Soulforge Realms does not add classes, village reputation, player-owned villages, random villager trade rolling, sockets, gems, or equipment XP. The focus is a predictable RPG progression loop built around gear, contracts, bosses, services, and safe return points.
