Swamp, Woods, Forest Mobs: The Lost and Forgotten

under review

The Lost is a mob that only spawns in swamps, woods, and Forests. The Losts are ghostly women who actively hunt down the player.  They deal 2 hearts of damage with each hit and give them slowness. The noises they make sounds like a woman crying and can be heard from far away which is to let the player know a Lost is coming for them.

The Forgotten is the Snowy Biome variant of the Lost. They hit the player with slowness as well as blindness. They also deal 2 hearts of damage. And have a similar cry but higher pitched. 

Both mobs are ghosts of explorers who have lost their way and died.

They both drop:

0-2 sticks

0-1 treasure map

0-2 torches

The forgotten also drops 1-4 snowballs

    Maybe the lost is exclusive to the swamp and looks like a ragged version of skeletons and the forgotten should spawn in jungles and look like a zombie (like the husk and stray). They could also give potion effects: the lost could give nausea and the forgotten blindness. The lost could drop bones and mushrooms (?) and the forgotten could drop rotten flesh and vines (?). Just an idea. I never thought to suggest more mobs like the husk and stray.

    This would be a great addition to the forests, because they're pretty bland atm.

    I don’t know. Minecraft is meant to be made kid-friendly, however this update might scare some kids.

    This sounds really cool and scary! If I saw/heard a lost I would leave that biome immediately and find some iron golems!

    Yes, it will be a little scary for the kids and for some players, but it would be a really nice addition, so making everyone happy it should be a new type of world able to buy in the market place, so the ones that are more into scary things can have a new experiences without loosing the Minecraft kid-friendly essence

    Ok just one thing: make the sounds a *Bit* less creepy, maybe the cave sounds or that random sound that just happens from time to time, otherwise great idea.

    Make it a variant of skeletons and zombies, or a witch variant. The crying should not be there, though.

    I love it, but i think that it will work better with a foggy area in the biome, here, this mob will appear

    They could use Alex's sprite to design the Forgotten and the Lost, just as the zombie was inspired on Steve...

    Have to say, really good idea, and quite relevant to village and pillage.

    I would steer away from having the appearance too closely resembling any gender; I suggest basically a ghostly Witch/Skeleton model (similar to the mashup that is Zombie Pigmen) instead as the game explicitly tries to not use gender-specific characteristics.

    Adding on from from other comments:
    Iron golems would be afraid of them

    They look like villagers in easy and medium mode so kids won’t be so scared

    They look similar to witches on Left4Dead but they are awesome.

    nice but not sure about sound, I mean, they're some 9yo playing that, it's not an horror game, but it can have cool sounds like deformed ghast cries or the high pitched sounds happening when under ground or you know the one when you are cursed by elder guardian with the ghostly guardian passing it front of you, it always scare me.

    And this should be activated only on "Hard" Mode

    It would be cool if they added a ghost mob simply called the spectre that haunts the night

    - that can't go through blocks (for balancing purposes)

    i truly would like these to be steve looking models if they were to be added, making the world feel more lived in besides the villagers, little strange to be the only "human" in the world. could add a layer of being the last of your kind or something like that.
