Dragon Egg Blessing

DragonEgg is a Paper plugin that turns the vanilla Dragon Egg into a powerful endgame artifact.

Only one genuine vanilla Dragon Egg is meant to exist on the server. While a player carries the Dragon Egg directly in their inventory, they receive its configured powers.

Features

• Permanent Strength II
• Permanent Speed II
• Permanent Resistance I
• Permanent Fire Resistance
• Permanent Haste II
• Permanent Regeneration I
• Permanent Water Breathing
• +10 extra hearts by default
• Extra hearts stack safely with other health plugins such as RankedSMP
• Dragon Egg powers are automatically restored after server restarts
• Dropping the Dragon Egg transfers its power to whoever picks it up
• The Dragon Egg cannot be stored in supported containers
• Configurable effects and extra-heart amount
• Lightweight event-based detection with a configurable safety check
• No database required
• Uses the genuine vanilla DRAGON_EGG item

Commands

/dragonegg reload — Reload the plugin configuration.

Permission

dragonegg.admin — Allows access to the reload command.

Configuration

The plugin can be configured through:

plugins/DragonEgg/config.yml

You can enable or disable individual effects, change their amplifiers, configure the extra-heart amount, and adjust the detection interval.

Requirements

• Paper 1.21.11
• Java 21+

Compatibility

DragonEgg uses its own health attribute modifier, allowing its bonus hearts to stack with other plugins that modify player health.

The plugin does not replace or remove health modifiers belonging to other plugins.

Important

The Dragon Egg itself is the source of truth. No player ownership is stored in a database, and the plugin does not create fake Dragon Eggs.

DragonEgg is designed for servers where the Dragon Egg is a rare and powerful endgame artifact.
