Village Standing
- By
An RPG reputation system where village deeds dictate trade prices, Iron Golem bodyguard loyalty or hostility, and community standing with an on-screen HUD.
Village Standing
An immersive RPG reputation system for Fabric 1.21+. Turn villages into dynamic settlements where actions carry real consequences.
🌍 Overview
Village Standing introduces a dynamic morality and reputation mechanic to Minecraft. How you treat villagers and their settlements directly impacts how they respond to your presence.
Defend against raids and trade fairly to earn loyalty, shop discounts, and personal Iron Golem escorts. Harm villagers or pillage workstations, and prices will soar while golems actively hunt you. Built cleanly on lightweight Fabric API event hooks with zero constant tick overhead.
