Lady Justice
by momomoosen
Lady Justice adds a reputation system that tracks each player's standing with the Illager Horde and the Villager Commonwealth, and standing shifts with what the player does to villagers and illagers.
What it does
Killing illagers and villagers moves reputation between two factions: the Illager Horde and the Villager Commonwealth. Curing villagers and trading with them raises favor with the Commonwealth, while killing villagers and iron golems raises favor with the Horde. A player who sits at neutral or negative standing with one side may find the other side more willing to deal, and a player who becomes hated by either faction begins to meet open hostility.
Reputation is tracked per player rather than per world, so each player on a server keeps an independent standing. Standing can be checked at any time, and a player's reputation resets on death. Consequences include refusing trade, treating the player as a criminal, sending illager patrols to the player's location, and iron golems attacking. Patrols detect a player from further away as their standing drops.
The mod runs on Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1 only. Both the server and every player need it, and it is published under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Two rival factions
The Illager Horde and the Villager Commonwealth each keep their own standing, and actions toward one can shift the other.
Per-player reputation
Each player builds a separate standing, so one player's conduct does not change another's relations on a server.
Faction consequences
Low standing brings refused trades, labels as a criminal, and attacks from iron golems on the wrong side.
Patrols and detection
Illager patrols are sent to a player's location when hostility rises, and they detect that player from a greater distance.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Villages with hostile factions
Servers that want villagers and illagers to react to player choices can use the standing system to shape how each village treats each player.
Adventure playthroughs
Players who want consequences for raids and village conduct can follow a path toward one faction and accept its patrols.
Who it’s for: The mod suits adventure playthroughs and multiplayer servers on Forge 1.20.1 that want villager and illager behavior to depend on each player's record of violence and trade.
