The Creeper (クリーパー, Creeper) is a hostile mob found in Minecraft. It is considered its mascot, and one of its most iconic aspects among players and non-players alike.
Origin
The Creeper is a hostile mob in Minecraft and spawns in the Overworld when the light level is below 7. The Creeper was accidentally created when the model for a Pig had its body's height and length mistakenly flipped, resulting in a distinctive four-legged creature with a long torso and no arms. When it notices a player, the Creeper will move towards it and explode when close enough, creating a small crater; the explosions are one of the most damaging attacks in the game and can potentially kill the player. When hit by lightning, the Creeper becomes charged and deals even more damage when exploding, potentially killing the player even with full diamond armor.
Killing a Creeper accrues 5 EXP orbs, and it may drop up to two pieces of gunpowder, as well as a random music disc if it is killed by a Skeleton or a Stray.
