Mod Powers (MOD能力, Moddo Nōryoku), also called Cursed Mods (呪いのMOD, Noroi no Moddo) by Gray, are intrinsic special abilities appearing in Minecraft: The Manga. They appear to be hereditary, allowing the users to manipulate the world around them in ways impossible within typical iterations of Minecraft.

Symptoms

Those affected by Mod Powers have Mod Runes (MODの紋章, Moddo no Monshō) somewhere on their bodies, which differ in appearance and placement for each ability.

• 
  Imagination's Mod Rune, located on the back of the right hand.^[1]
• 
  The Zombie Curse's Mod Rune, located on the upper left arm.^[1]
• 
  Growth's Mod Rune, located on the back.^[2]
• 
  Evolution's Mod Rune, located on the center of the torso.^[1]

Types

Imagination

Imagination (創造力, Sōzō-ryoku), used by Nico and Icco White, allows the user to craft in variable sized crafting grids, even without the use of a crafting table. In addition to normal items (such as a wooden sword), it can be used to craft items invented by the user;^[3] due to the versatility of what it creates, it can even be used to mimic enchantments.^[4] Both Nico and Icco have been shown to create various things:

• Nico's creations:
  • Ultra-Long Stone Sword (超ロング石の剣, Chō Rongu Ishi no Ken), crafted using a stone sword recipe with four cobblestone instead of two.^[3]
  • Wooden Whirlwind Shuriken (木の風魔手裏剣, Ki no Kazama Shuriken), crafted by placing four wooden swords above, below, and beside an empty space.^[5]
  • A giant bucket, crafted in a 5x5 grid with four iron ingots on either side and three at the bottom.^[6]
  • Zombie Counter Trap (ゾンビカウンタートラップ, Zonbi Kauntā Torappu), crafted using two planks above a dispenser. When the resulting pressure plate is stepped on, it launches the person who stepped on it upwards. Nico used it to counter the Old Trapster's zombie spawner, hence the name.^[7]
  • A giant diamond shield, crafted by filling all but four slots in a 5x5 crafting grid with diamonds to create a skull shape. Nico used it in his battle against Yamabuki, allowing Gray to barely shoot the ninja using his bow.^[8]
  • Ultra-Fine Iron Wire (超極細の鉄のワイヤー, Chō Gokuboso no Tetsu no Waiyā), crafted using an iron ingot and two string in a line from top-to-bottom. Nico used it to defeat the Giant Spider, who was caught in the nearly-invisible wire.^[2]
  • A fishing rod with a doll of himself as a lure, crafted with a fishing rod and two logs, one diagonally below the rod and the other below the first log. Nico used it to lure Dylan's brother, recently turned into a drowned, to the water's surface.^[9]
  • Water armor, crafted by forming a chestplate with water buckets. When worn, it resembles water floating around the user. Nico used it to save Phoenix when he fell into his village’s lava pit.^[10]
  • Ultra-Long Iron Sword (超ロング鉄の剣, Chō Rongu Tetsu no Ken), crafted using an iron sword recipe with four iron ingots instead of two.^[11]
  • Blast Blade (爆裂剣, Bakuretsu Ken), crafted by surrounding a sword with four pieces of gunpowder. The resulting sword explodes when swung, damaging both its target and wielder. Nico used it to defeat Fox.^[4]
• Icco's creations:
  • Obsidian Twin Blades (黒曜刀こくよう とう, Koku Yōtō), crafted using a sword recipe with obsidian. After being crafted, they were left in Yamabuki's village, and he claimed them.^[8]

The size of the crafting grid that each person can use is defined by the level of the Mod Power. With Imagination I, a 5x5 crafting grid can be used,^[3] while Imagination II grants a 6x6 crafting grid. Additionally, users of Imagination can combine their crafting grids to form larger, rectangular grids. Both Nico and Icco have access to Imagination II,^[12] though when Nico first awakens his Mod Power he is limited to Imagination I.^[3]

Zombie Curse

The Zombie Curse (ゾンビ化の呪い, Zonbi-ka no Noroi) is a Mod Power that transforms people into zombies, in both body and mind.^[1] Gray and his village are afflicted by it.^[5]

Growth

Growth (成長期, Seichō-ki) is a Mod Power that allows the user to become stronger, more intelligent, and larger the more creatures they eat. It was used by a Giant Spider that attacked Carhon Village, eating enough of the village's livestock to grow to 30 times the size of an average spider and to gain enough intelligence for basic speech.^[2]

Evolution

Evolution (道化しんか, Shinka) is a Mod Power used by Navy. It grants superior intelligence that rivals or surpasses that of humans, as well as extremely strong legs and blast protection, allowing them to survive explosions unharmed.^[1]

Block Pierce

Block Pierce (ブロック貫通, Burokku Kantsū) is a Mod Power that allows the user to launch super-powered punches. It is used by Platinum.^[13]

Clairvoyance

Clairvoyance (千里眼, Senrigan) is the ability to predict the future, used by Oulu.^[14]

The King's Mod

The King's Mod (王のMOD, Ō no Moddo) is a Mod Power that the Evil King's Gang want to use to destroy the world.^[15]

Teleport Command

The Teleport Command (テレポートコマンド, Terepōto Komando) is a Mod Power that allows the user to use the /tp command to teleport themselves or others (through direct contact) to specified coordinates. It is used by Calamity.^[13]

Enlargement

Enlargement (広域化, Kōiki-ka) is a Mod Power stored in a wither skeleton skull. It was one of three used by Abyss when creating the ultimate Wither.^[13]

Power Amplification

Power Amplification (威力增大いりょくぞうだい, Iriyokuzōdai) is a Mod Power stored in a wither skeleton skull. It was one of three used by Abyss when creating the ultimate Wither.^[13]

Forced Fusion

Forced Fusion (強制融合, Kyōsei Yūgō) is a Mod Power stored in a wither skeleton skullthat allows the user to forcibly fuse others. It was one of three used by Abyss when creating the ultimate Wither, which he created by fusing a Mod Power-infused Wither, himself, and Icco White.^[13] The one who activated the fusion appears to remain in control once fused, as Abyss remained in control of the ultimate Wither. The only way to unfuse somebody is to kill them; however, they are still eligible to be revived with a totem of undying, and will remain unfused afterwards.^[16]

One Block

One Block (ワンブロック, Wan Burokku) is the ability to create a palm-sized pocket dimension, containing a single grass block, and to trap others inside. It is used by an unnamed pickpocket.^[17]
