Valor
A harsh survival modpack for Minecraft 1.21.1. Start in the stone age, build a character with stats, a role and talents, and clear dungeons with friends.
Valor is a Fabric modpack for Minecraft 1.21.1. On CurseForge it is called Valor RPG.
You start with six hearts, no role and no tools. Make flint tools, light a fire, and stay warm, cool and fed. Then train a role, raise your stats, buy your gear and take a party into the dungeons.
The Main Loop
Three things grow your character. Each one has its own job.
| What | Where it comes from | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
| XP | Fighting, mining, smelting: anything that gives XP. In a dungeon the party shares it | Raising your stats at the Keeper. Each stat level also gives a talent point |
| Coins | Errands, chests, selling, and most of all dungeons | Every weapon and piece of armour, upgrades and repairs at the Smith, inscriptions, role changes, potions and supplies. See Coins and Shops |
| Souls | Your first clear of each dungeon | Opening the next ring of your talent web |

Installing
Valor is on CurseForge. Install it with the CurseForge app, or any launcher that installs CurseForge modpacks.
Valor uses the Ashen resource pack and the PSX Shader NB shader pack. Shaders are on from the start. To turn them off, open Options > Video Settings > Shader Packs.
Playing With Friends
Valor is built for a party of up to six. Everyone on a server shares the Keep, and whoever walks through a dungeon door with you is your party for that run. See Multiplayer.
Music
The soundtrack is by Louie Zong. The music changes with where you are and what is happening.
