The Murk - Darkness Consumes

# The Murk _(name subject to change)_  [](https://twitter.com/tiigerbones)  [](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/the-murk-darkness-consumes) **The Murk** is a horror-themed Fabric mod that transforms darkness into a deadly threat. Venture into the shadows unprepared, and face the chilling consequences of *Murk's Grasp*, a debuff that creeps up in low light levels, bringing fear and danger to your world. ## Features - **Murk's Grasp Effect**: - Triggers in low light levels (default: below 3) after 15 seconds of darkness, with a warning message at 5 seconds. - Applies a harmful status effect with a dark purple hue, slowing movement by 15% and dealing scaling damage if you linger in the dark. - Persists for a configurable duration after entering a lit area, with optional Blindness effect. - **Dynamic Light Detection**: - Supports held items, dropped items, trinket slots (via Trinkets), and nearby players’ light sources to reset the darkness timer. - Configurable light sources with customizable luminance and water sensitivity. - Integrates with **LambDynamicLights** for realistic light checks, requiring line-of-sight to light-emitting items. - **Configurable Gameplay**: - Customize light thresholds, dimensions (e.g., Overworld, Nether), and effect behaviors via `config/murk.json5`. - Options to enable/disable underwater light checks, Creative mode effects, and warning messages. - **NOTES**: - Inspired by mods like *OminousDarkness* and *Grue* but built for Fabric.
