Bestiary is an adventure, challenging and magic Minecraft modpack from nevemlaci with 4.1K downloads on the Orca catalog. It runs on Forge, so it slots into a matching Minecraft profile without hand-patching anything. Bestiary is free to download and free to host on Orca: host it on a free Orca server and invite your friends. There is no control panel and no config files to edit, and no command line to learn. Describe what you want in plain English and Orca installs Bestiary along with the loader and Minecraft version it needs, then you and your friends are playing in minutes.

A modpack built around 'Lycanites Mobs' and 'Ice and Fire' for a monster taming-slaying experience.
