Villagers Reborn replaces vanilla villagers with human models while keeping their usual jobs, trades, and behavior.

You can build relationships with villagers, start dating, get married, and start a family!

Also includes villager names, personalities, custom equipment, and a dialogue system.

Works in any existing world and is compatible with most mods that add custom trades or professions.

It also replaces other mobs such as illagers, witches, and the wandering trader with human models.

Issues ⚠️

If you get stuck on the birth screen you can use the keyboard arrows to select Confirm or adjust the GUI scale

Sometimes a villager gender changes after curing them from zombification if you cure more than one villager at the same time

Already existing villagers disappear if the mod is removed
