Paper plugin for hardcore deathban servers. When a player dies, their ender chest contents are saved. A living player can hold the dead player's head and run /dec to spawn a chest with those items.
Each dead player's ender chest can only be looted once — after that, the head is useless for looting (but you keep it as a trophy).
Designed to pair with HeadDrop (100% player head drop on death).
