📖 Description

Now guards will appear in the villages, there are two types, archers and swordsmen, they can pick up weapons, armors and totems!

You can turn an fletcher villager into an archer by dropping a bow at him and turn a weaponsmith villager into a swordman by dropping a iron sword at him.

⚠️ Warning

Is a datapack, what it does is to convert randomly villagers to guards, being a datapack, if you install this mod in a world already created, some of your villagers may become guards and lose their trades, be careful.

And if you uninstall the mod your villagers will not return and the guards will still exist but will not function.
