# VillagerLife<\/p>\n
A Paper plugin that brings villagers to life with daily routines, dialog and a reputation system.<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
– **Routines** \u2014 Villagers follow profession-based daily schedules (farmers tend crops, blacksmiths hammer at anvils, fishermen head to water, etc.) and return home in the evening.
\n– **Dialog** \u2014 Right-click a villager to start a conversation. Chat naturally to ask for resources, request an escort, get directions, trade, or just talk.
\n– **Nicknames** \u2014 Give any villager a persistent nickname that shows above their head and in chat.
\n– **Reputation** \u2014 Build trust through trading. Higher reputation unlocks more interactions like fetching rare materials, escorts and work orders.
\n– **Bilingual** \u2014 Full support for German (`de-DE`) and English (`en-US`).<\/p>\n
