Uriel, Lord of Hosts

A server-side umbrella mod for V Rising dedicated servers — a host of independent, admin-toggleable quality-of-life enhancements and structural fixes.

---

⚠ Heads-up before you install

Pre-1.0 — in active development. Test it first; don't roll it out broadly on a busy live server until you've vetted it yourself. Uriel is pre-release and evolving quickly. The features below are implemented and tested in local and dedicated development/test-server environments — not yet on a live production server. This is a server-side mod still under development: by running it you are helping test it, and you take that risk on yourself. Please back up your server save before adding any new mod, and ideally trial Uriel on a test server (or a quiet plot) first. Commands, config keys, and behavior may still change before 1.0.

Every feature is independently toggleable. If any one component feels unstable, you can turn just that part off in the config (each feature has its own Enabled switch) and keep using the rest — you never have to disable Uriel wholesale. See the per-section notes below and the Configuration table. The switches bind admins too: a feature that's off is off for everyone.

Want to play it safe? Set ObjectSpawn.Enabled=false (no spawned objects) and leave CastleEvents.Enabled=false (the default: no NPC units). If something ever goes wrong, .uriel killswitch (then .uriel killswitch confirm) removes everything Uriel put in the world, and General.Enabled=false switches the whole mod off. See Emergency: restore vanilla below.

Found a bug or have an idea? The fastest way to get a fix into the next release is the The Shadow Realm Discord — that's the primary bug-report and feedback channel. Written-up GitHub issues are welcome too.

Repo: https://github.com/KDavidP1987/Uriel-Lord-of-Hosts Status: pre-1.0 public testing · server-side only · several feature groups live today, more sub-mods planned under the Uriel umbrella.

Feature	Stage	Default
🏺 Object Spawning	Beta	On (admin-only until you open it to players)
🗄 Public Storage and prison cells	Beta	On
🪜 Stair Editing	Beta	On
🏰 Castle Events	Alpha	Off

Beta: in testers' hands, core paths validated live. Alpha: built and tested on a development server only; expect rough edges, and commands may change.

What it does

Uriel is never all-or-nothing: every feature ships behind its own config switch, and all sharing/editing is per-object opt-in — nothing is ever shared or changed server-wide on your behalf.

🏺 Object Spawning (collect & place world objects)

Bring world objects the build menu never offers into your castle — resource nodes, world chests, breakable crates and urns, and decorative props from across the map (GloomRot, Cursed Forest, dungeons, ruins). Spawn one at your aim point — or at your own location with the here flag (handy from a UI button) — inside your own plot; it's indestructible and decay-proof by default, and you move/rotate/remove it with .uriel move / .uriel rotate / .uriel despawn. If an object sits floating or half-buried, nudge its height with .uriel raise / .uriel lower — or, as an admin, set a permanent per-object correction with .uriel objcfg <object> yoffset <metres> so it always sits flush. Everything you place persists across restarts and is cleaned up automatically — during play, within a couple of minutes — if its castle is ever abandoned or destroyed (and you can't keep building on a plot you've given up).

Choose how durable it is with optional spawn flags: breakable (raids and decay can destroy it), smashable (you can destroy it by hand too), or respawn (it automatically comes back after being destroyed — until its castle is gone or you .uriel despawn it). Mix them, e.g. .uriel spawn <object> 0 smashable respawn.

Collect them by playing (Discovery mode). You unlock an object by destroying one in the world — chop a tree, smash a crate, break an ore vein — with an admin-set chance to "learn" it. .uriel unlocks shows your collection and percentage; .uriel catalog browses everything that exists; .uriel notify on|off toggles the unlock messages. Roughly half of all objects can't be destroyed — those unlock when you hit 100% collection, defeat Dracula (finish the game), or per boss via an admin-curated map. Admins choose the model (or turn it off), can set a build cost, block specific objects, and grant objects directly.

How it's managed: spawned world objects are placed and moved with the .uriel commands above, not the vanilla build menu (an engine limitation — the game won't let arbitrary world objects be selected in build mode). The optional Raphael companion mod (formerly BloodCraftHub) can present a point-and-click palette UI.

Admins can put rules on player spawning. Set a per-object or global limit on how many of an object fit on one plot, an item cost to build it, and whether players may make it indestructible or auto-respawning — .uriel objcfg <object> max 3, .uriel objcfg <object> cost 100 <itemId>, .uriel objcfgglobal … for the defaults, .uriel objcfglist to review. Admins themselves are never restricted.

🧪 Pre-1.0 guidance & quick tips (Object Spawning)

• Not every spawnable object has been individually tested. The game ships thousands of prefabs; some may misbehave when placed as décor (spawn invisible, or not function). This is a big reason Uriel is pre-1.0, and exactly why we're asking for feedback — every broken object you report goes onto the block list for the next release.
• Hazardous/problematic prefabs are blocked from spawning. The game's object list contains many entries that aren't real placeable décor (world-gen controllers, NPC-spawner "points of interest", invisible markers, baked "source" copies). Known-bad ones are filtered out of the catalog so players can't pick them. This filter is still being refined — there may be problematic objects not yet found.
• If something spawns but you can't see it, it's INVISIBLE, not absent. The object is almost certainly there on the server but not rendering correctly (it's one of the not-yet-caught bad ones). .uriel despawn it to be safe — don't leave it sitting there — and please report it so it can be blocked.
• Don't overlap objects on purpose. Stacking objects in the same spot can cause problems; Uriel blocks overlapping placements by default (ObjectSpawn.PreventOverlap). Offset things slightly instead.
• Admins can block any object they don't want available — even one that isn't hard-coded blocked — with .uriel block <guid> (or by configuring their server). Blocked prefabs vanish from the catalog and can't be spawned.
• Prefer admin-only while you vet it: the default ObjectSpawn.AdminOnly=true keeps spawning to admins; open it to players once you're comfortable. You can also disable this whole feature (ObjectSpawn.Enabled=false) and keep the rest of Uriel.

🗄 Public Storage (per-container opt-in)

Mark a specific chest as publicly accessible so anyone on the server can use it — community chests, donation boxes, free-stuff stashes, even paid vending boxes. Always owner-controlled; nothing is shared unless its owner shares it. Shares survive server restarts.

Sharing rules (set by aiming at your shared container):

• Permission — take-only, give-only (donation box), or both.
• Withdrawal limit — e.g. 1 stack per player per 24 hours.
• Access cost — charge an item per stack withdrawn; the payment is delivered to a private "pay chest" you designate. A vending machine, basically.

Public prison cells (separate switch) — share a prison cell to let anyone tend your prisoner: feed and extract blood through the normal cell UI, and take the prisoner home with .uriel takeprisoner (they're subdued and released to the taker — bring Dominating Presence to escort them). The game's own subdue button only ever appears for the cell's own clan (an engine limitation), so the command covers everyone else.

Heads-up for players accessing a share: when a chest or cell is first made public, a player trying to use it may need to log out and back in once before their client recognizes it as accessible. After that initial relog, it behaves like any other container you can open.

🧪 Pre-1.0 guidance (Public Storage): sharing is always per-container, owner opt-in — nothing is shared unless someone shares it, so the blast radius is small. Trial it on a few containers first. Chest sharing and prison-cell sharing have separate switches (PublicStorage.Enabled / PublicStorage.PrisonEnabled), so you can enable one and not the other. Found an issue? Report it on Discord and, if needed, flip the switch off — your containers simply go back to private.

🪜 Stair Editing

• Live restyle — aim at a placed staircase and swap it to another style; the change applies instantly for everyone, no server restart or relog (the stair is rebuilt in the new style on the spot). Only styles of the same stair shape (straight, left-curve, right-curve, wide) are offered, and DLC styles require owning that DLC — exactly the same rule as your build menu. Free, preserves position, rotation, and ownership.
• Clean removal — .uriel removestairs deletes a staircase you own without tearing apart the floors and walls it's attached to (something a normal dismantle can't cleanly do).

🧪 Pre-1.0 guidance (Stair Editing): restyling rebuilds the staircase on the spot (destroy + respawn in the new style); position, rotation, and ownership are preserved. As with any pre-1.0 feature, try it on a spare staircase first. If a stray "ghost" stair is ever left behind, an admin can clean it with .uriel stairpurge. You can disable the whole feature with StairSwap.Enabled=false.

🏰 Castle Events (alpha, off by default)

Turn a castle into an event space. Walk your castle and drop spawn markers for mobs and bosses, bind doors that stay shut and locked until the units guarding them are defeated, then start a run. Players fight their way through room by room: a gated door doesn't open until its group is beaten.

How it fits together

• Layout (per castle): markers grouped by name. Each group sits on a floor and may hold one door. .uriel event marker <group> [mob|boss] places a marker where you stand; .uriel event door <group> binds the door nearest you.
• Squad: what a group spawns. Random picks: distinct takes N different units ("1 of these 3 bosses", "2 of these 10"), any draws an assortment. A squad can hold several combinations; one is chosen per run.
• Floor template: which squad each group on a floor gets.
• Template: which floor template each floor uses. Give a floor several and one is chosen per run, so a floor can have a different theme each time.

Example (floor 1: five militia guard a door, then a boss, one of three):

# the layout: stand in each spot
.uriel event marker g1 mob
.uriel event door g1
.uriel event marker g2 boss
# what spawns
.uriel squad create militia5
.uriel squad add militia5 mob CHAR_Militia_Guard,CHAR_Militia_Light 5 any
.uriel squad create boss1of3
.uriel squad add boss1of3 boss Foreman_VBlood,StoneBreaker_VBlood,Stalker_VBlood 1 distinct
.uriel floor create f1
.uriel floor assign f1 g1 militia5
.uriel floor assign f1 g2 boss1of3
.uriel template create castle1
.uriel template floor castle1 1 f1
# run it, scaled to the strongest player present
.uriel event start castle1 hard,auto+2

Run options (comma-separated, after the template name):

Option	Effect
easy · normal · hard · brutal	Presets for health, damage and speed
level=40 · level+5 · auto · auto+2	Set the level; auto = the highest player level on the plot
hp*2 · dmg*1.5 · speed*1.2 · aspd*1.3	Multiply health, damage, move speed, attack speed (0.1 to 10)
limit=15m	Time limit (seconds, minutes or hours, up to 6 h); the run fails when it runs out
faction=keep	Units keep their own factions (by default a run fights as one side)

A template can carry default options; the ones you type at the start add to them.

During a run the clock starts once every foe is in place. Clearing a group opens its door; defeating the last boss and finishing the event are timed and announced to everyone on the plot. .uriel event status shows progress, .uriel event stop removes the units and puts every door back, and .uriel event history shows recent runs and best times.

Containment: event units never leave the castle plot, and by default stay on the floor they spawned on (CastleEvents.DefaultContain). A marker can keep its units to a room, a floor, or a leash radius instead.

🧪 Alpha guidance (Castle Events)

• Off by default. Turn it on with CastleEvents.Enabled=true. Admins can run events on any plot. To let castle owners run events on their own plot, also set CastleEvents.PlayerEvents=true; marker and run costs are configurable and free by default.
• Tested by the developer on a development server, single player. Several players in one event, and players running events on their own castles, have not been tested yet. Please report what you find.
• Spawned units are never saved. A server restart removes them (and ends any run, putting doors back). Units drop no loot.
• Keep chat commands short. The game cuts chat lines at about 120 characters. Unit names can be shortened (Foreman_VBlood), and long unit lists can be added in parts with .uriel squad extend.
• Kill switch: .uriel unit purge (then .uriel unit purge confirm) removes every Uriel unit on the server.

Emergency: restore vanilla

Every admin cleanup below works even with the feature, or the whole mod, switched off.

Command	What it undoes
.uriel killswitch [confirm]	Everything at once: stops every castle event (doors put back as they were), removes every Uriel unit and every Uriel-spawned object, and makes every shared chest and prison cell private
.uriel purgeall [confirm]	Every Uriel-spawned object on the server
.uriel unit purge [confirm]	Every Uriel NPC unit on the server
.uriel event stopall	Every running castle event, doors put back
.uriel unshareall	Every shared chest and prison cell back to private
.uriel features	Shows which features are on

Can't get into the server? Set KillSwitch.RestoreVanillaOnBoot=true in the config and restart: Uriel does the same reset at start, then switches the setting back off. To keep Uriel off afterwards, set General.Enabled=false.

Only Uriel's own objects and units are ever removed; native objects are never touched. Saved settings (unlocks, event layouts, squads) are kept. Swapped stairs stay as they are: a swap leaves an ordinary game staircase in another style.

Installation

Uriel is a server-side mod — install it on your V Rising dedicated server, not on player clients. Players need nothing installed.

Via Thunderstore Mod Manager / r2modman (recommended)

1. Open the mod manager and select V Rising → your dedicated-server profile.
2. Search for Uriel under the Mods tab → Install.
3. Ensure its dependencies are installed in the same profile (they install automatically): BepInExPack_V_Rising and VampireCommandFramework.
4. Launch the server through the mod manager's profile.

Manual install

1. Install BepInExPack V Rising (1.733.2 or compatible) into your dedicated server.
2. Install VampireCommandFramework into BepInEx/plugins/.
3. Drop Uriel.dll into BepInEx/plugins/.
4. Start the server once to generate the config at BepInEx/config/kdpen.Uriel.cfg, then edit and restart as needed.

Stop the server before replacing Uriel.dll — a running server file-locks the DLL.

Dependencies & compatibility

Mod	Version	Role
BepInExPack V Rising	1.733.2	Loader (hard dependency)
VampireCommandFramework	0.10.x	Chat-command framework (hard dependency)

Optional companion (not a dependency): the client-side mod Raphael (formerly BloodCraftHub) is designed to work alongside Uriel — players who install it on their own client can drive Uriel's features from in-game UI panels and buttons instead of typing. It is not required: like any server-side mod, every Uriel feature works fully through the .uriel chat commands, with or without Raphael.

Commands

All commands are chat commands prefixed with .uriel. Type .uriel for a quick overview, or .uriel help for a clean, topic-by-topic menu (objects / storage / stairs / events / admin). Most targeted commands also accept a trailing nearest token to act on the closest object to you instead of where you're aiming — handy when a menu or UI panel has your aim ray pointing elsewhere (e.g. .uriel share nearest, .uriel stairswap stone2 nearest).

🏺 Object Spawning commands

Players (active when ObjectSpawn.AdminOnly=false; you must be inside your own castle plot):

Command	What it does
.uriel spawn <name|guid> [rot 0-3] [flags…]	Place an object you've unlocked at your aim point. Flags (any order, after the rotation): breakable (raid/decay), smashable (you can break it too), respawn (auto-returns until castle gone / despawned), here (place at YOUR location), indestructible (default)
.uriel move [here] / .uriel rotate [0-3] / .uriel despawn	Move (to your aim, or here = your location) / turn / remove the nearest object you spawned
.uriel raise [m] / .uriel lower [m]	Nudge the nearest object you spawned up / down so it sits flush with the ground (default 0.25m)
.uriel unlocks	Your collected objects + collection %
.uriel catalog [page]	Browse the full world-object catalog
.uriel findprefab <text>	Search objects by name
.uriel notify <on|off>	Toggle your object-unlock chat messages

In Discovery mode you unlock objects by destroying them in the world; the non-destructible ones unlock on full collection, boss defeats, or admin grant.

Admin sub-commands

Command	What it does
.uriel grant|revoke <player> <name|guid>	Unlock / remove an object for a player
.uriel grantall <player> [all|destructible|indestructible]	Bulk-grant the catalog (or a subset)
.uriel block|unblock <guid> · .uriel blocklist	Forbid / allow a prefab
.uriel spawnlist · .uriel purgeplot	List / clear spawned objects on the plot (live spawns + records; native objects never touched)
.uriel forcedespawn [confirm]	Force-remove the aimed object, ignoring records/ownership (recovers untracked objects); names it, then confirm within 30s
.uriel forcepurgeplot	Synonym for purgeplot (live spawns + records; native objects never touched). The old chain sweep was removed — it could delete native resources
.uriel purgeorphans	Server-wide cleanup — scan the whole map and remove orphaned Uriel objects (castle gone, or no living heart governing them). Only Uriel's objects are touched; a backup for the automatic boot-time cleanup
.uriel bossmap add|remove|list <vblood> <obj>	Curate which objects a V-blood defeat unlocks
.uriel objcfg <name|guid> <field> [v1] [v2]	Per-object rules: max <n> (per plot), cost <amount> <itemGuid>, indestructible <true|false>, respawn <true|false> (these gate players only) · yoffset <metres> (permanent flush-to-ground height, applies to everyone) · clear, show
.uriel objcfgglobal <field> [v1] [v2] · .uriel objcfglist	Global default condition (per-object overrides it) · list all conditions
.uriel api version|catalog|unlocked	Machine API for Raphael

Configuration

BepInEx/config/kdpen.Uriel.cfg — every feature has its own Enabled switch. Config changes take effect on server restart.

Section	Key	Default	Effect
General	Enabled	true	Master switch: false turns every Uriel feature off for everyone, admins included. The cleanup commands still work
KillSwitch	RestoreVanillaOnBoot	false	One-shot emergency reset: the next start removes every Uriel object and unit, makes every shared chest/cell private and puts event doors back, then sets itself back to false
ObjectSpawn	Enabled	true	Master switch for object spawning
ObjectSpawn	AdminOnly	true	When true, only admins may spawn — set false to open the player collection path
ObjectSpawn	PlayerAccessMode	Discovery	Discovery (unlock by destroying) or Full (whole catalog)
ObjectSpawn	DiscoveryChancePercent	25	Chance (0–100) that destroying a world object unlocks it
ObjectSpawn	NonDestructibleUnlock	Off	How non-destructible objects unlock: Off/Collection/FinalBoss/AllBosses
ObjectSpawn	IncludeCastleBuildables	false	Include the normal build-menu pieces in the catalog (off = world objects only)
ObjectSpawn	PrefabCostItem / PrefabCostStack	0 / 0	Item + amount a player pays to build one object (0 = free)

ObjectSpawn	OverlapMinDistance	0.5	Minimum spacing (m) between objects when PreventOverlap is on. Lower it to place décor closer together; 0 = only block the exact same tile. Doesn't affect placing flush against walls
ObjectSpawn	RespawnEnabled	true	Master switch for the respawn flag (auto-return destroyed objects until the castle is gone)
ObjectSpawn	RespawnPollSeconds	30	How often (seconds, min 5) the respawn check runs
ObjectSpawn	AutoPurgeOrphans	true	Clean up objects on an abandoned/destroyed castle during play (within ~2 min), not just at the next restart. Only Uriel's own objects are touched

ObjectSpawn	(more)	—	CollectionEnabled, BossUnlocksEnabled, DiscoveryNotify, RefundOnRemove, PurgeOrphansOnBoot — see the generated .cfg. Per-object/global player limits live in object_conditions.json (.uriel objcfg)
PublicStorage	Enabled	true	Master switch for chest sharing
PublicStorage	PrisonEnabled	true	Independently allow prison-cell sharing

CastleEvents	DoorGates	true	Let events shut and lock castle doors. Off: doors can't be bound and runs never touch a door
CastleEvents	PlayerEvents	false	Let castle owners run events on their own plot (admins always can, anywhere)
CastleEvents	DefaultContain	storey	Where a marker's units stay when it doesn't say: plot, room, storey, a leash in metres, or a mix like room,15
CastleEvents	MaxMarkersPerPlot	40	Most spawn markers a player's castle may have
CastleEvents	MarkerCostItem / MarkerCostAmount / BossMarkerCostAmount	0	Item a player pays per mob or boss marker (refunded on removal; 0 = free)
CastleEvents	RunCostItem / RunCostAmount	0	Item a player pays to start a run (0 = free)

Diagnostics	VerboseLogging	false	Extra per-action log lines (useful when testing)

Roadmap to 1.0

Full detail in the roadmap. Tentative and driven by tester feedback.

1. Harden the beta features. Live-server validation of Object Spawning, Public Storage and Stair Editing; less server cost on repeated move/rotate/delete.
2. Castle Events to beta. Multiplayer and player-castle testing, the remaining indoor checks (castle servants and defences, sunlight), and Raphael screens for building and running events.
3. Castle Events complete. A toll door that charges entry and starts a run, entry triggers and capacity limits, reward tables, event decorations and barriers, and maze stairs that change the path each run.
4. Castle Rentals. Rent a coffin or a room for a set time, with access to chosen storage.
5. 1.0: every feature validated on a live server, commands and config frozen, Raphael covering the main screens.

After 1.0 (exploratory): conditional door access (payment or set hours), bulk storage sharing, teleporters, plot expansion, expanded castle decor.

Have a feature you'd like to see in the host? Bring it to the Discord.

Feedback & community

Developed and tested locally and on dedicated development/test servers — it has not yet been run on a live production server, which is exactly why it's pre-1.0 (see the heads-up at the top). It comes out of the V Rising community The Shadow Realm (Brutal PvE), maintained by Chaos, whose Discord is the home for Uriel testing and feedback. As a pre-1.0 mod, bug reports and feedback are hugely valued — and the people who help test now shape what 1.0 becomes.
