The Forgotten (zombie pigman/piglin variant)

This mob is designed for my land of the lost biome, where they would live in black nether brick buildings and ruins. They could also be tweaked for the soul sand valley. 
A forgotten would be created when a zombie piglin wanders into the fog of the land of the lost. It would have black bones like a wither, darker green borders, and grayish skin. Its speed would be unaffected by soul sand or its biome, and its vision would be unaffected by its biome as well. It would be a neutral mob with unusual triggers. If a player attacks a forgotten, takes an item from a chest, or breaks a block within their range, they will attack that player. The reason for this behavior is that they want to be remembered. You can explore their home, as long as you leave it the way you found it. The final part of their behavior is that they often stop to stare at the player, watching until long after their shadow fades into the mist.

    The forgotten could be very creepy. Maybe they don't make any sound at all, unless you disturb them or thier home. Then they will wait until you are out of sight, after which you would hear many of them scream in the distance and you know they are coming.

    I do want them to be a little creepy, and I agree that their creepiness should be reflected in the sounds they make. I am not sure about the screaming, though. They seem a little more sad and reflective than the rest of the undead, so I do like the silence idea. Maybe they could rarely grunt in a sadder tone than a normal zombified piglin, and have a deep grunt/roar when they attack.
