Thaumcraft

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Thaumcraft is a Game Mod for Minecraft revolving around the concept of converting materials into a raw energy called Vis. With this energy, Minecraftian wizards can infuse items, dig up the earth, and even duplicate precious gems.

The author is actually done working on it and only releases minor patches as the community waits for the newly-announced[when?] sequel, Thaumcraft2, to be finished.

Tropes used in Thaumcraft include:
  • Eldritch Abomination:
    • The Eldritch Tree, a living monster that looks like a tree. Sturdy but immobile. Drops Eldritch Logs and Hearthwood.
    • The Eldritch Grubs, small creatures that the Tree creates when attacked. Strong for their size, they drop the health-restoring yet dizzying Grub Husks.
    • The Travelling Trunk, made out of Eldritch Tree remains is a living chest that adventures with you.
  • Shout-Out: To Discworld.
  • Too Dumb to Live : People who actually summon the Super Charged Thaumic Slimes without backing up their world.
