Abandoned Castles in Snow Biomes/Mountains

A giant tower lurks over the snowy mountains. What could it be, a trap, or a new challenge? Abandoned and destroyed, this castle holds many secrets. Loot found beneath its floors. New monsters along with strays inhabit its walls. The player can rebuild this structure, or fight in its dungeons.

    At the very least, some sort of small, unique villager outpost on the side of a mountain.

    I bet they would prefer more detail but this is a must have, they can't possibly ignore it. Works perfectly with the iceologer too.

    It is possible that the Iceologer from the 2020 mob vote could spawn in these castles upon world generation.

    And what had destroyed this castle? Is this castle entirely abandoned? That fire breathing creature could still roam the hall, we sould be careful.
    This what comes first in my mind. And yes, a fire breathing dragon could perfectly fit

    A challenge awaits you player! (what I mean is that there should be a strong mob or like a new boss inside the castle) Minecraft needs to refresh the bosses :>

    There is a giant snowy biome in my server, and there is no use for it, this would be really cool and make snow biomes actually have something players can gain from them

    Love it! This will also definitely add more variety and life to the new updated mountains.

    Could be a good home for a Stray spawner?

    I think this would be an awesome structure added to the game (if it does) and this could be giant like the woodland mansion

    Why is this not already in the game? It's such a good idea, and seeing it up super high on the side of the new cliffs is so majestic! This just must be in the game!

    and have a mob spawn er place under or the strong hold

    This would spice up the game with more buildings, and the fun of exploring a new bastion/treasure area like the desert temple, jungle temples, bastions etc.

    I think that it would be cool to have different types of castle variants, 
    The Watch tower, which can maybe just be the pillager outposts but there isn’t a village nearby.
    Then the castle wall, which can spawn in any biome, but it is a bit more rare than a desert temple.
    Finally a castle, these can spawn in Mountain, Tundra (and tundra variants) and Iceberg biomes. They can be made of different materials depending on where they spawn, so cobblestone in mountain, stone and Ice in tundra and Snow and Ice in Iceberg biomes. The castle would be decently rare, but have mobs like the Yeti and different  Illigers guarding it. This would be a great place to have the underused Stray, and unofficially added mob illusionar into the game. Then at the top of the castle there could be a dragon at the top, like a mini boss, it could be slightly smaller, shoot fire and have much less health than the Ender Dragon. When the Dragon is killed it could leave its egg unguarded and you can hatch the dragon and tame it, to keep as a pet. Because I think Minecraft could use a flying mob that you can ride. When you are not ridding the dragon it will shoot fire at hostile mobs, but do much less damage than the previous hostile dragon. The Castle can also have a few mob spawners, and have a broken Nether or End portal, along with dungeons, treasure room and other rooms in the dungeon and surrounding castle.
    Overall great idea, think this should be added, and sorry if this doesn’t make any sense at all.

    gracias por esta propuesta la verdad quisiera un castillo abandonado en las nuevas montañas para que parezca que hubo un rey  que lo dominaba todo pero un catástrofe hizo que su reinado se acabara

    YEEEESS. Something you could fix up with easily obtainable blocks and uncover its hidden past. That would be so cool. Kinda of like the castle from buety and the beast? Massively scaled down of course

    This is an awesome idea. It would be cool if along with the abandoned castles is if you could find one that was fully built and inhabited by villagers with new designs to fit the castle or mountain biome or it could be inhabited by illigers with there being a few new ones added. This of course would be the more rare than a normal abandoned ones.
