Village Society

Your villagers fall in love, marry, raise children and work real jobs — humans and demons with lives of their own, even when you're away.

 Carrying a spouse at sunset.

 Carmilla.

 "Let me carry you for a while."

Village Society is a living-society mod for Minecraft 26.3 (Fabric). It turns villagers into people with names, personalities, homes, jobs and families — and then lets them live.

Why you'll love it

• Romance that goes somewhere. Talk, flirt, give gifts, propose and marry. Hearts move both ways, and jealousy is real.
• Families that grow. Children inherit traits, grow through four stages and appear in an interactive family tree.
• Work that changes the world. Farmers harvest and replant, fishers cast from real banks, woodcutters fell natural trees, miners dig real tunnels and cooks use real kitchens.
• Humans and demons. Villages in the Overworld and bed-free demon settlements in the Nether, each with homes, jobs and families.
• A society that keeps living. Residents befriend, sit, play, grieve at graves, celebrate festivals and continue their lives when you leave.
• English and Arabic in-game text, with datapack-extendable dialogue.

Features

• Four Folk types — human male/female and demon male/female, using Kador's skins and ten horn/tail palettes.
• Hearts (0–500) with relationship tiers, gifts, conversation, affection, jealousy, engagement, marriage and both player and NPC–NPC weddings.
• Children and family — growth stages, inheritance, carrying, caregiver behaviour, and a draggable family tree with hearts and rings.
• Jobs — human farmers, fishers and woodcutters; demon forge masters, ember miners, alchemists, ember cooks and guards.
• Combat — warriors, archers, demon hunters and three-strike aggression warnings.
• Nether demon life — bed-free demon settlements with soul-campfire hearths, families, jobs, ember rest instead of sleep, and guards that only hunt inside the Nether.
• Dialogue packs — add or replace lines in data/<namespace>/dialogue/*.json.

Requirements

This release is Fabric 26.3 only. Forge and NeoForge ports are not included and have not been tested.

Installation

1. Install Fabric Loader 0.20.1+ for Minecraft 26.3.
2. Put Fabric API and village-society-0.19.1.jar in your mods folder.
3. Launch the game. Village Society works in single-player and on a server (install it on both sides).

Villages and settlements

• Human villages generate as part of the mod's village structure set. In a world with structure generation enabled, residents move in as new chunks generate. In an existing world, use /hf village to place a village instantly.
• Demon settlements generate in Nether biomes. Each settlement has six bed-free houses, a soul-fire plaza, a forge, a kitchen/alchemy hall, a training ring and a demon memorial. Use /hf demonvillage in the Nether to place one manually.
• Structures only generate in new chunks. Existing worlds keep their current terrain.

Commands

All commands require gamemaster permission and are available as /villagesociety or /hf.

• /hf help — list commands.
• /hf arena — build a clean test arena with sample Folk.
• /hf populate [seed] — fill nearby human houses.
• /hf village — place a human village in front of the player.

Journal

Press J (default) to open the village journal: nearby relations, the nearest Folk's family and recent events.

Dialogue packs

Server data packs can add or replace dialogue in data/<namespace>/dialogue/*.json. Packs are reloaded on world load and /reload; removing a pack falls back to built-in lines.
