Botania
A tech mod for Minecraft themed around the magic of nature
...With an original aim- and timing-based power system, Botania has a very different feel from your typical magic or tech mod. Manipulating Mana and watching it flow in real time adds a new light to your base of operations. Botania works within the Minecraft world itself; no GUIs are used to interact with any of its features. It's carefully designed to ensure that nearly everything is fully automatable using vanilla and itself. After some thought, of course. The Lexica Botania is the compendium of nearly all knowledge about this mod. Easily craftable in-game using a book and a sapling, it gives you almost all the information you'll ever need to know about Botania.
