Weeping Angels
Which came first, Weeping Angels or SCP-173?
Super Mario Bros 3
Which was actually based on the one developers wife, who was timid and scared when people were around her.
But the second people went away, she became scary and threatening.
I believe it was Weeping Angles as the original SCP-173 4-Chan post came out a short amount of time after the first appearance of the Weeping angles in Dr Who
A new, unique mob that can actually be threatening in a place that isn't borderline impossible to come across without deliberately looking for it? Not perfect, but it's a step up from their usual. Now if they bothered to add some more trees...
Looks fun. I wonder if the creaking can kill mobs to make a grinder?
Since the mob is immune to damage as long as the heart is safe it could also work as bait for mobs that are hostile to it.
Oooh, interesting. Waterless iron golem farm? Unless normal mob spawns are disabled in the biome, maybe these things kill anything in the biome?
