People have published all sorts of content speculating on origin stories in Minecraft. One popular origin story, for example, came from Reddit user Bloomin_JooJ, who points out that all of the structures discovered in Minecraft are void of intelligent life. If you think about it, Steve seems to be the only real rational human being in the world. With him as the only one, many people hold the belief that Steve is a time traveler. This would explain why everything is abandoned, because Minecraft is actually taking place on Earth in the future. You can read more details that justify this theory in the Reddit post.
In a recent video put together by Avocado Animations, we get to see a take on how Creepers were created, and it is equally as terrifying as it is brilliant. If you skip past the promotional content at the beginning of the video and start at one minute and 27 seconds in, the animation story of the Creepers’ origin will begin.
The video shows a man mixing together some kind of potion, which is supposed to turn into something that can heal permanent injuries. The cat knocks in some extra ingredients though, and when the man goes to test his final product out on the head of a dead pig, things do not go as planned. The transformation that follows is disastrous and horrifying, and you can watch the full video below.
