Botania

Botania is a mod by Vazkii based around the magical energies created by flowers and other natural plant life. It is inspired by other magic-based mods, like Thaumcraft 4 and Blood Magic. There are magical flowers found around the world, which come in all 16 colors. The energy system from Botania is called Mana, which requires aiming and time coordination of the blocks, due to the power not wanting to go to where you want it to go automagically. There is an in-game documentation book that explains nearly everything within Botania, it is called the Lexica Botania.

Around the whole Minecraft world, many Mystical Flowers will spawn, these flowers are essential towards progressing and creating resources in the mod. Do note that onlt Mystical Flowers spawn, any other flower such as a generating flower will not spawn.

Mana is the energy system Botania features, it is used for performing many nature-involved tasks such as infusions, enchanting and repairing tools, or powering magical utilities. It is created very easily but mostly in small amounts.

This mod also implements a new feature called 'Natural Shedding', this is where Skeletons, Chickens, Ghasts and other animals of the like shall occasionally drop something related to them. For example, a Skeleton would drop a Bone now and then.

As of version beta-22, Botania requires the Baubles API. Baubles comes packaged with Thaumcraft 4, so if that is installed, Baubles will not be necessary.
