Cleric Heal Villager

by Nat's Projects

Cleric Heal Villager lets cleric villagers restore health to nearby villagers, so a trading hall can recover from damage without a player stepping in.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalCreative Commons Attribution 4.01.21.9 – 26.3

What it does

Cleric villagers heal villagers within their reach. Each healing pulse restores 1 health point, which is half a heart, and the effect applies automatically about every 3 seconds, so the healing needs no command or item. Villagers that stand close to a cleric regenerate over time, and the effect follows them while the cleric stays in range.

The mod is a server-side addition to villager behavior. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and also as a data pack, across 8 release versions, 1.21.9 – 26.3. Snapshot builds are published alongside the release files. The mod is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 and is not open source.

Installation is covered by a data pack route as well: the .zip file goes into the world's datapacks folder, and the world is then reloaded with the reload command. Server owners running a modded setup can install the matching loader build instead.

Key features

  1. Cleric healing aura

    Cleric villagers restore 1 health point to villagers nearby, which is half a heart per pulse.

  2. Automatic healing pulses

    The healing effect applies on its own roughly every 3 seconds, with no trigger needed from players.

  3. Villagers regenerate near clerics

    Villagers that stay close to a cleric villager gradually recover health and keep their trades ready.

  4. Data pack install

    A data pack version is available, dropped into the world's datapacks folder and loaded with the reload command.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Server owners running a survival world with villages who want villagers to recover from damage on their own, and players who run a modded setup and want a light villager addition.

How it compares

Full comparison

Helpful Clerics is a Fabric-only client and server mod under the MIT License, open source and published for 1.21.1 – 26.2, so it covers a narrower loader and version set. Simple Name Tag is needed on the server, with the client optional only when the server runs it, and it is under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, published for all four loaders across 1.16 – 1.21.11. Cleric Heal Villager reaches the newest builds, 1.21.9 – 26.3, and only the server needs to run it, while players may still add it.
