MalumEldritch / soul magic — Spirit Shards, Soulwood, Ritual Encyclopedia
About
Malum is an aesthetically-driven soul magic mod with deliberately limited fast-track tech. Players harvest Spirits (Aerial, Aqueous, Earthen, Infernal, Eldritch, Wicked, Arcane, Sacred) from killed mobs, infuse Soulwood logs and Spirit Shards, and craft rituals and weapons. It's heavy on atmosphere — much of its game-feel is the soundscape and visual effects rather than recipe-throughput.
Things to do
- Find Soulstone (deep-rock vein) → first crafting material
- Sacrifice mobs at the Spirit Altar for Spirit Shards
- Craft Soulwood logs by infusing oak with sacrificed mob souls
- Build the Ritual Pedestal for multi-stage rituals
- End-game: Sanguisteel weapons + Eldritch Mythos pieces
Getting started
The in-game Encyclopedia Arcana book is your guide. Use a mob farm to feed soul income — Spirits are the bottleneck.
