Village Wardens And Bandits
Quickstart
Craft a Bandit Camp Token:
Use the token on a clear, level area to build a camp nearby. Bandits and a Chief appear there, so approach carefully: the camp’s alarm can launch arrows at you.
To try the other mobs, use their spawn eggs from the Creative inventory. In a world with cheats enabled, you can also summon them with commands such as /summon com_village_wardens_and_bandits_3xvow52l:whiterun_guard ~ ~ ~.
Overview
The mod brings Skyrim-inspired Whiterun Guards and bandits into the world. Guards protect villagers; bandits defend their camps and attack players. Both have occasional custom voice cues when players are nearby.
What It Adds
| Content | What to expect |

How To Use
- Deploy a camp: Use the Camp Token on open ground. It builds a tent, campfire, bed, chest, barrel, watchtower, and a barred enclosure that may contain a captive.
- Explore carefully: Camps have several bandits and a Chief. Archers take positions in the watchtower. When you get close, the camp sounds an alarm and fires arrows toward you.
- Meet a guard: Guards patrol around villages and attack hostile mobs nearby. Harming a villager or breaking a block near a guard marks you as a threat.
- Spawn entities: Use the Whiterun Guard, Bandit, or Bandit Chief Spawn Egg. With cheats enabled, the summon IDs are
com_village_wardens_and_bandits_3xvow52l:whiterun_guard,com_village_wardens_and_bandits_3xvow52l:skyrim_bandit, andcom_village_wardens_and_bandits_3xvow52l:bandit_chief.
Crafting And Obtaining
The Camp Token is crafted at a crafting table from sticks, leather, and a campfire. Using it consumes the token and creates a camp nearby. Spawn eggs are another way to place the mobs in Creative.
Defeated guards and bandits can drop their equipped weapons and armor. Guards may also drop their shield.
Abilities And Mechanics
- Guards: Protect villagers from hostile mobs and pursue players who harm villagers or break blocks near them. They do not target peaceful animals, and return toward their starting area if they wander too far. They back away when badly hurt.
- Bandits: Attack players they detect within about 20 blocks. When badly injured, they retreat; camp bandits also move back toward their camp when near defeat.
- Chiefs: Have more health than regular bandits and can be equipped with an iron sword or crossbow.
- Camp alarms: Approaching within about 18 blocks can trigger an alarm and an arrow volley. The camp can sound its alarm again after a cooldown.
- Bandit growth: Bandits and Chiefs grow stronger as they score kills, gaining Strength at kill milestones and Speed after several kills.
- Camp respawns: A cleared camp can repopulate later while its bed and campfire remain. Removing either one stops that camp from respawning.
Progression And Strategy
Scout the watchtower and deal with its archers before entering a camp. Use cover against the arrow volley, then take on the remaining bandits and Chief. Check the camp chest for supplies after the fight.
For a safer village, keep a Whiterun Guard nearby. If you want to stop a cleared camp from returning, break its bed or campfire.
