Is there a way to make a custom wand with custom lore?

Completely custom lore is not currently possible. You can set a description, but the rest of the lore is autogenerated based on wand properties like spells, mana, etc.

How do you set descriptions? I read your custom wand article. Trying to make a Necromancer Staff for players.

Easiest way is in the wand config, just add a "description" property.

necromancer:
  inherit: base_wand
  name: Necromancer Staff
  description: Raise the dead
  icon: wood_hoe:5
  mana_max: 50
  mana_regeneration: 5
  spells:
  - monster

Something like that. Create upgradeable wands will be a little more work, you have to set up a path as well.

Everything in this plugin is best learned by looking at the default configs. Though in this case, the wand descriptions and names are all in a separate file for localization purposes.

Alright thanks a lot! Appreciate it.

I received this error when trying.

There is probably an error further up in your logs saying the configs didn't load. And it's probably because you need quotes around the lines that start with &.

Also Yaml lists need a space between the - and text. This is just yaml stuff, nothing specific to this plugin.

Oh alright.

Can confirm this works:

necromancer:
  inherit: base_wand
  name: "&8Necromancer Staff"
  description: "&7Long lost in the depths of the dead, now found...."
  icon: wood_hoe:5
  mana_max: 50
  mana_regeneration: 5
  spells:
  - monster
  - blind
  - curse
  - arrow
