Mobs (Mythology and Legend)

## The Undead

The Undead family of mobs are those that are affected by smite, and are reanimated creatures. While there are some reanimates that are not in this category, that is because they are not affected by smite, and technically do not fall under the same category.

### Zombies

At some point in time, there was a man who feared death. This man feared death so much, that he would do anything to avoid it. He lived he healthiest life possible, and when he wasn't exercising or performing excessive self-care routines, he was researching ways to circumvent it. One day, the man stumbled to the darkest, furthest corners of the great library of [TBA], in search of an ultimate cure for death. Eventually, he found what he was looking for. A shady book of ancient, long-forgotten spells. It instructed the reader to find a specific witch, far away in the swamps of [TBA]. And so, after months of preparation, he began the adventure. It took a long, excruciating week, but he had made it. He spoke to the witch about the spell, and she agreed. He paid her in gold, and she began the process. The process was a long one, taking 3 months to complete. Eventually, the man grew tired of the wait, and took matters into his own hands. He rushed the final portion of the recipe, and cast the spell. Unfortunately, this had disastrous effects. The witch found out about this, and cast the man away into the wilderness. He put a curse on him that he, and any "descendants " of his are harmed by light, and burn in it's glory. At first, he didn't understand. But as the days went by and he slowly approached his old home, he began to understand. His skin grew a pale green, and he felt weak. Soon, his mind grew numb, and it felt as though he had lost control. Before he knew it, he was foreign to his own body. It was no longer his. It walked of It's own accord, and approached his quaint little village. In the night, it slowly tore apart the residents, one by one. He was forced to watch from his own mind as his friends and family were killed and infected by this disease. The morning came, then night. The mangled bodies scattering the town had awoken, meeting the same fate as the man. After that, they would go on to attack others, and eventually spread across the entire world.

### Zombie Villagers

Originally, villagers were unaffected by the zombies. The zombies ignored them, and they could not be infected. That is, until someone wanted to change that. A scientist experimenting with the virus, supposedly searching for a cure, became tired of the world. A resentment toward it and it's people grew from inside him. That resentment turned to anger, and the anger into hatred. Eventually, he devised a plan. When he was unsupervised, he worked on a mutation of the virus, making the zombies more powerful, and the infection more versatile and adaptive. Fortunately or unfortunately, it was release unfinished. While it was more adaptive, existing zombies were not made stronger. However, they gained the ability to infect villagers. Night came, and with it the swarms. These humble, unprotected villages were ravaged and destroyed. Their inhabitants slain, all villages went quiet, and villagers were nearly driven extinct. All that remained was the illager branch, and any villages with enough foresight to construct defenses.

## The Enders

Not much is known about this family of mobs. Proof of them even existing at all is scarce, and details about their behavior even scarcer.
