Sculk-Corrupted Mobs

Sculk-Corrupted Mobs:

Basically most overworld hostile mobs can have a Sculk Variant. This variant can only spawn in the deep dark in Sculk areas along with the Warden. 

How they will function:

They will function just like normal mobs, try to kill you. Except, it's blind just like the Warden! They will use sensors on their head that will function the same as a warden, except instead of hitting you, they do what the normal mob will do. Such as, shoot arrows, explode, hit you, etc. 

What they will look like:

They will take the same form as they did when they were normal mobs, but instead have the same Sculk theme like the Warden. The dark blue and black, with no eyes, and have sensors on the side of their head. I don't think they should have the same feature of the Warden where when you attack, they get stronger, along with the heartbeat feature. I think they should just be normal mobs but are blind. So worst then normal mobs, but proves a extra challenge in the Deep Dark.

How they will spawn, or convert.

So they can spawn normally like any overworld mob, just in the Deep Dark, but there is also another way. For example, the Zombie turns into a Drowned by essentially drowning, or submerging with water for a bit, or can just spawn as drowned naturally in the world. I think Sculk mobs should function the same. For example, a zombie is strolling in the Deep Dark and finds himself standing on the Sculk blocks for a while and turns into a Sculk corrupted mob.

    I just love the fact that the deep dark is just the horror game side of minecraft! Also I think that these mobs shouldn't make sounds except for when the notice you and their squishy foot steps.

    I love the idea of the Sculk just being this big corrupting force, maybe Sculk can corrupt overworld foliage if brought up to the surface with non-organic blocks stopping the corruption

    I was about to post the same thing until i saw this and it is a great idea in fact like you cant add a new biome or cave without a couple of new mobs and it does make sense with the games lore if the warden is a past builder but got infected by the sculk or is basically a prison guard making sure the souls are trapped in its chest and mobs will be infected because they are trapped too.

    I like it, but there is a couple issues, firstly, this one might just be me, but it would be really difficult for skeletons to shoot you, second, I feel like this makes the Warden less unique than it was before. giving normal mobs sensors and blindness takes away everything that makes the Warden special, the only thing that separates it from normal mobs is the Warden's massive strength and it's appearance. Like I said, I like the idea, but it takes away most the uniqueness of the Warden.

    I think yes but the Warden must also keep its uniqueness I think a new silverfish variant sculkmite should be there ... its is too small to be noticed by the warden but large enough to hit you hard and also call nearby warden

    I think this is cool, but mobs spawning in the deep dark doesn't sound like much fun, since they'd set off the shriekers constantly.
