The Helper

What is a helper? Imagine this- An Armour Stand, without the stand beneath it, while an Observer is where the head should be, and it has a smaller Furnace on it's back in a rectangular(ish) shape, like a backpack. It can be crafted by getting an Armour Stand, an Observer, a Furnace, two Redstone Dust and a Chest. Practically, what "The Helper" does is up to the player. The Player can give The Helper a task, and it'll do it for the Player, let it be guarding an area from enemy (or specific) mobs, as it either stands still, or wanders in a set path. You can give The Helper tools and gear, just like an Armour Stand. But they're not for show.

You can also give it certain tasks, like the Structure Block, you can choose a limited area of the Minecraft World and you can tell it to destroy blocks of a certain type, or all of them. Allowing The Helper(s) to mine out an area for you, and even store the blocks and items it gets by walking to a nearby chest, and if it's full, it will search for another one. The Helper will only have 9 inventory slots. To make things basic for those who want to use a group of them, they could set a certain task, and the player can make the other Helpers join by selecting the task, that can be named.

    (I'm gonna add more down here because of the character limit)

    A piece of Coal will let it last for 5 Minutes, a Coal Block will last 45 Minutes, a Lava Bucket will last for 2 Hours.

    The Chest is for the Inventory on it that can be opened, and it only has 9 Inventory slots.

    You can make as much as you want follow you, and they will protect you from a certain set of mobs (by default, all enemy mobs) They can even shoot arrows, but at half the speed of a player.

    When they are standing still, the fuel will last about three times as long, when patrolling an area, the fuel consumption will be at about half the speed, and when in combat, the consumption will be doubled.
