Datapack Drop Head

Drop Head, player trophies on death

Drop Head is a Minecraft datapack for Java Edition that makes a player’s head drop whenever they die. It edits the player loot table, so the feature works server side without changing the core survival experience. Each dropped head keeps the dead player’s relevant skin characteristics, turning it into a personal trophy for decoration, memories, or roleplay.

Suitable for a Minecraft server, it supports a broad range of versions and can work across several server environments. Our BoxToPlay team recommends it for survival, PvP, hardcore, and community worlds where every death can leave a recognizable souvenir.
