More Professions
by Pepsied
With More Professions, villagers gain new job blocks and randomized trade pools that players can level up, turning trading into a progression system.
What it does
Villagers take on professions beyond the vanilla set, each tied to a specific workstation block. A villager picks up its profession by using that block, and its trades then open in five levels. Each level draws two trades from a pool of up to six, so a profession offers 30 base trades, and the mod adds more than 350 randomized trades across the added professions.
Trades are fixed per level but chosen at random when a villager levels up, so re-rolling by breaking and replacing the workstation is part of the loop. Only the server has to run the mod; players may join without it. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, with files for 1.21 – 26.2 across 16 release versions, under the MIT License, though it is not open source.
Key features
New villager professions
Professions such as Redstoner, Lumber Jack, Miner, Hunter, Beekeeper and Explorer add new trading roles to villagers.
Five levels of trades
Each profession opens its trades in five levels, with two randomly drawn trades per level from a pool of six.
Randomized trade pools
Trades are selected at random from each pool, so two villagers of the same profession can offer different deals.
Workstation-based assignment
A villager takes on a profession by interacting with its matching block, such as a redstone block or a wooden axe.

Custom server economies
Server owners running economy or Skyblock style game modes can add profession variety without writing custom trade data files.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want varied villager trading, and players who enjoy progression through vanilla-style villagers. The server must run the mod, while clients can join without it.
