The grandest of rituals: opens a private pocket beyond the void, its nature chosen by the Tier laid down. The way back in is by teleporter alone.

  Each arm holds a Tier 1+ block other than the Tier block, or stays empty (air or Tier 0). Read by compass direction, the arms spell the rune’s signature.

How it works

Genesis opens a pocket world of your own. Build the eleven-by-eleven web of redstone and netherite around a fully powered beacon, set it with its reagents, your signature, and a seed of creation, then right-click the beacon. The pattern burns away, all but the dragon egg, and you step straight into the new pocket.

The seed decides the pocket's nature, the first time only:

Seed	Pocket
Clay	Overworld
Netherrack	Nether
End stone	End

Inside, a quartz platform holds a return beacon. Right-click it to step back home. Genesis also sets a Tier 1 Waypoint in the pocket under your signature, so an ordinary Teleporter with that signature takes you back in.

Each mage holds one pocket.

See Genesis for the full ritual, the way home, and the notes for server owners.

Configuration

These are the defaults in plugins/Runic/runes/genesis.yml. Every rune file also carries the shared settings described in Rune files.
