Sentry
To become Sentry you need to:
- Brew the Golden Sentry Serum by combining an Awkward Potion with an Enchanted Golden Apple in a Brewing Stand. Drink it to get the Unstable Radiance effect.
- Craft a Beacon and build a pyramid of at least 3 levels and set its primary effect to Solar Ascension.

- The ritual starts when you have both Unstable Radiance and Solar Ascension active. You'll be pulled toward the beacon and ascend. After, you'll receive the Sentry Suit.
To become The Void you need to complete Sentry's skill tree. Reach full Void Corruption by taking damage, killing mobs, or staying in darkness for a long time.
Superman
To become Superman you need to:
- Find a Crashed Kryptonian Pod. They generate in most biomes. Loot it to get Sunstone Shards and Kryptonite Shards (you may also find a Kryptonian Whistle for summoning Krypto).

- Craft the Kryptonian Sun Totem by combining 4 Sunstone Shards, 2 Kryptonite Shards, 2 Gold Ingots, and a Totem of Undying in a crafting table.

- Charge the Totem by holding it in your hand during the day while under open sky. It absorbs solar energy over time.
- Once charged, right-click with the Sun Totem to become Superman.
Thor
To become the God of Thunder you need to:
- Find Mjolnir's Crash Site. A rare structure that generates in most biomes. It contains Mjolnir in the middle and some Uru scattered around.

- Mjolnir cannot be lifted by the unworthy. You must complete the 2 advancements to become worthy:
• Monster Slayer — Kill 200 hostile mobs
• Hero of the Village — Successfully defend a village from a raid - Lift Mjolnir by right-clicking it or crouching on it to pick it up. You'll receive the Thor Suit and the God of Thunder power.
Suit Variants
Each hero has multiple suit variants inspired by comics, movies, and animated series. They change your appearance while wearing your hero suit and do not affect abilities. Equip them through the Palladium accessories menu.
Suit Scrolls unlock random accessories. Right-click with a scroll to unlock it permanently. Scrolls can drop from certain hostile mobs or be purchased from the Wandering Trader.
