vBestiary
vBestiary is an interactive bestiary plugin for Paper and Spigot servers. It uses Minecraft's native written book interface to let players browse server mobs, categories, stats, loot and discovery progress without receiving a physical item in their inventory.
The plugin is designed for servers that want to present their creatures in a more immersive way. You can create custom categories with YAML files, document vanilla mobs or MythicMobs, show drops with native item hover, and optionally display mob renders, loot icons, or animated images through ItemsAdder or Nexo.
Support the Project
vBestiary is developed and maintained with a lot of care. If this plugin helps your server, consider making a donation to support future updates, bug fixes, documentation and new vPlugins projects.
