# ๐งช CompoundV
### *Inject the powers of* The Boys *into Minecraft.*
[](https://www.minecraft.net/)
[](https://papermc.io/)
[](https://adoptium.net/)
---
> Most heroes don't get their powers in a lab.
> On your server, they will. **One bottle at a time.**
CompoundV is a modular ability plugin inspired by *The Boys*. Players drink experimental serums to roll for super powers โ from flight and heat vision to a one-shot chest beam that vaporizes anyone in its path. Every ability has real controls, real cooldowns, and real consequences.
๐งช **Drink. Pray. Survive.** ๐งช
---
## ๐งช The Serums
| Serum | Color | What it does |
| :-: | :-: | :-- |
| **Compound V** | ๐ | The classic. Random ability, permanent until death. Heroes are extremely rare. |
| **Temp V** | ๐ | A weaker, time-limited dose. Power fades after a configurable duration. |
| **V One** | ๐ฉต | The refined formula. Only rolls top-tier abilities. |
| **Anti V** | โค๏ธ | The cure. Drink to remove your current ability. |
| **V-Null Virus** | ๐ฃ | A bio-weapon. Infects and strips abilities from Compound V / Temp V / V One users on hit. |
> ๐ฑ๏ธ **Right-click** a bottle to drink. After a short activation, your power is unlocked.
All serums are crafted at the **workbench** using a chain of ingredients. Use `/cv tutorial` to receive the in-game handbook with every crafting step.

## โ FAQ
๐ What happens when I die with an ability?
By default, you lose it. Same risk Vought's heroes never had โ and exactly what makes serums valuable and PvP genuinely tense.
โฑ๏ธ How long do Temp V abilities last?
The duration is rolled per drink between `min_duration_minutes` and `max_duration_minutes` (default: 15โ120 min). When the timer runs out, the ability fades automatically.
๐ฒ Why is The Patriot so rare?
By design. Default weight is `1` against a combined pool of ~100+, so expect many bottles per Patriot roll. Tweak the weight in `config.yml` if you want him more common.
๐งช Can two players have the same ability?
Yes. Every drink rolls independently โ there's no global lock.
๐ง Can I disable abilities or change roll chances?
Yes. Set any ability's chance to `0` in `config.yml` to disable it, or adjust the number to influence roll frequency. Run `/cv reload` to apply without restart.
๐ What languages are supported?
English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Turkish, Russian and Simplified Chinese ship out of the box. Set `language: en` (or `de`, `es`, `fr`, `hi`, `ru`, `zh`) in `config.yml`. Drop a custom file into `plugins/CompoundV/lang/` to add more.
