The Barterer Mod
by Cannonbow
The Barterer Mod adds a trading villager-style entity called the Barterer, summoned through a new Barter Bell block, who accepts junk items in exchange for emeralds.
What it does
Players can summon the Barterer by placing a Barter Bell and letting it generate a small square. The entity appears after about five minutes, so the bell should be placed and left alone for that time. Junk items handed to the Barterer are traded for emeralds, which gives an outlet for stacks of unwanted loot. Requires Geckolib, which must be installed on the same side as the mod. Runs on Forge for 1.20.1 and the environment is client and server, so both the server and every player need it.
