Leader Mod

Leader Mod adds a full political leadership system to Fabric servers. Players vote for an elected leader, fund a shared realm treasury, support decrees, claim bounties, or organize a rebellion to overthrow the throne.

Built for Fabric 1.21.1 with Java 21.

Features

• Player-driven leader elections
• Persistent leader, vote, treasury, decree, rebel, and bounty data
• Configurable leader abilities with cooldowns
• Passive leader aura for nearby allies
• Treasury and tribute economy using a configurable item
• Leader tax collection from online players
• Realm-wide decrees that affect gameplay
• Bounties funded from the treasury
• Rebellion system that can remove the current leader
• Temporary sanctuary zones that prevent PvP
• Optional sacrifice ritual
• Operator commands for forcing, clearing, and reloading leadership state

Leadership

Players elect an online candidate with:

/leader vote <player>

When a candidate reaches the configured vote threshold, they become the leader. The role persists until the leader abdicates, an operator clears it, or enough players join a rebellion.

Useful commands:

/leader current
/leader votes
/leader realm
/leader abdicate

Leader Powers

The elected leader can use dramatic realm powers:

/leader lightning <player>
/leader imprison <player>
/leader rally
/leader judgement <player>
/leader pardon <player>
/leader sacrifice <player>
/leader exile <player>
/leader sanctuary
/leader warcry
/leader beacon
/leader feast
/leader summon <player>
/leader loyalty <player>
/leader crown
/leader proclaim <message>
/leader locate <player>

Examples:

• Lightning strikes a target with lightning effects and damage.
• Imprison traps a target in a temporary cage.
• Rally buffs nearby players.
• Judgement marks and weakens a target.
• Pardon clears negative effects and removes rebel status.
• Exile teleports a target into the wilderness.
• Sanctuary creates a temporary no-PvP area.
• Warcry damages, weakens, and knocks back nearby players.
• Beacon grants utility buffs to nearby players.
• Feast spends treasury resources to heal and feed nearby players.
• Summon pulls a target to the leader after a warning delay.
• Proclaim broadcasts a royal message to the server.

Realm Systems

Leader Mod includes realm management beyond the leader role:

/leader tribute <amount>
/leader tax
/leader decree <none|war|peace|prosperity|storm>
/leader rebel
/leader rebels
/leader bounty <player> <reward>
/leader bounties
/leader clearbounty <player>

Treasury

Players can contribute the configured treasury item, defaulting to emeralds. The leader can spend treasury resources on feasts and bounties.

Decrees

Leaders can set realm-wide decrees:

• none - no active decree
• war - leader attacks hit harder
• peace - PvP damage is reduced
• prosperity - ore mining can create bonus rewards
• storm - leader attacks can trigger lightning sparks

Rebellion

Players can join or leave a rebellion with /leader rebel. If enough eligible online players rebel, the current leader is overthrown and the throne becomes empty.

Bounties

The leader can fund bounties from the treasury. When a bounty target is killed by another player, the killer receives the configured reward item and experience.

Configuration

Leader Mod generates a JSON config at:

config/leadermod.json

Major configurable values include:

• vote threshold
• minimum online voters
• ability cooldowns
• damage values
• ability durations
• leader aura radius
• treasury material
• tax amount
• rebellion threshold
• bounty reward limits
• decree effects
• sacrifice enable/disable

World-specific leader, vote, treasury, rebel, and bounty data is saved in the world folder under leadermod/.

Admin Commands

Operator-level players can use:

/leader force <player>
/leader clear
/leader reload

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.1
• Fabric Loader 0.18.4 or newer
• Fabric API
