Adding variety to your villagers, with different skin tones and eye colors

Description:

    As it is right now, this mod adds the following features:
  • Eight skin tones, ranging from white to black, with vanilla villagers colors being around the middle.
  • The majority of NPCs in a given biome will have realistic skin tone range appropriate for the climate, with some randomization to make it interesting.
  • Five eye colors. Green (vanilla), blue, light blue, brown, and amber. Ravagers also have these eye colors too.
  • Close their eyes while sleeping. Currently only villagers actually do sleep, but if the others ever sleep for some reason (like another mod) their eyes will close as well.
  • Villagers pass on these traits to their children.
  • Zombie villagers also have 8 skin tones (but their eyes are still all red), and converting back and forth they will retain all their features.
  • Zombie Villagers that are cured keeps the red eye.

Note 1: There are no plans for a Forge version of this mod.

Note 2: This mod is required both on the client and the server side to work as intended.

This mod is a port of the Original NPC Variety mod. The original Author have gave us authorization to port it for the 1.16 version of Minecraft.

This mod requires the Fabric API to work.
