Description
Mortis
Mortis is a datapack that handles everything from cosmetics, to convenience, with your items after you die.
Quick start guide
Type in chat "/function mortis:gamerule/" and tab/autofill to see what the options for gamerules are.
Gamerule list

A skull will appear where the player died. If the player died with a skull on, the skull will appear as the one the player wore. If the player didn't wear a skull when dying, the skull will resemble a skeleton skull.
ShowLastDeathCoordinates:
Tells the player in chat where they died.
SaveItemsFromVoid:
If the player takes damage in the void, they will die and keep their items. If the player is on half a heart in the void, they will die and keep their items.
ItemInvulnerability:
Items will not despawn or take damage.
ItemClumping:
All items clump together at the location of death.
ItemAntiGravity:
Disables item gravity. (best if used with the ItemClumping gamerule)
OwnerItems:
Items will not be able to be collected by anyone but the one who died with them.
/trigger commands
/trigger mortis.DeathCount:
Tells the player in chat how many times they have died.
/trigger mortis.LastDeathCoordinates:
Tells the player in chat where they last died.
Administrator features:
Exclusionary tags:
If you give any player a tag like this: "mortis.x.false" replacing the "x" with whatever gamerule you want to exclude them from in all lowercase, then that gamerule will not apply to them even if enabled.
