This will almost definitely be lost but in addition to this theory, in the snow biomes, igloos can occasionally spawn with an underground lab. Inside there are two cages, one with a villager in it and one with a zombie villager. There is also a sign with arrows pointing both ways, obviously alluding to the fact that you can transform a zombie villager back into a normal villager and vice versa.These snow biomes are always separated from the rest of society. My theory is that after the creation of the zombies by the Illagers, several villagers decided to attempt to find ways to save those who had turned into zombies. It was their attempt at correcting the wrongdoings of the Illagers. Just a theory. Edit: I know it’s cliche but really thanks! The fact that it’s on a game theory video makes this even better! I’m glad people liked my theory. I feel like the igloos have always been ignored but I feel like they are a critical piece. It has so many little details that can easily add to a story and yet I never see people mentioning them? I mean, they are literal secret labs hidden under igloos, there is defiantly something suspicious about that. Hopefully, we can help piece together this theory because I for one am invested in it!
Minecraft developers: “aight so we dont have anymore lore ideas. Any ideas?” Janitor cleaning the room: “Why not just make small stuff and get that theory guy to make it for us?” Minecraft head developer: “hmst....”
What if instead of trying to create a “Steve” for I guess funzies, the Illigers tried to create one because of Steve’s ability to respawn? Going back to the whole life and death thing.
I find it interesting that the new mob, the allay, looks suspiciously similar to the vex. And guess what? Allay ONLY spawn in prisons in the mansions and outposts. That is definitely there for a reason.
I find that really interesting for how it plays into the Minecraft Legends lore because [big spoiler alert]... the origins of both allays and illagers are explained in the game. Illagers were just villagers who wanted to take up the fight to defend the Overworld, but then that made them too aggressive at the end to go back to being peaceful villagers. Allays were just the little spirits the hosts used to help out the hero. This is really cool because it implies that the illagers know a lot about the hosts and are trying to kidnap their allays and use them as servants, corrupting them into vexes. How that process works I'm not sure, but it's just really interesting altogether.
Theory: If you didn’t know, Illager Outposts, most of the time, contain imprisoned Iron Golems. I think they fuse villagers and Iron Golems to create the Ravagers: Hence their strength, force, and resistance, similar to an Iron Golem. And due to the fact that Iron Golems and Illagers also have beef
@@pinktuIip I think it's possible as they could melt down the golems, and fuse them to the still living Villager. Using the Totem of Undying, they breath new life, but it could also be that there is some cow thrown in, which causes them to come back on all fours.
If we combine this theory with MatPat's then Ravenger= /Villager + /Iron Golem + Totem of Undying Why Totem, there's a chance of Evokers and Vindicators to spawn in Outpost
Okay hear me out, totems of undying also have the villager nose with green eyes. What if the way they work is by transferring the life of an innocent villager into a totem and then transferring the life into another object.
I've been binging these episodes again. But maybe the lapis representation also indicates the use of souls. We commonly see souls represented as blue, and if we were to think about it, you'd reasonably need soul power to create something sentient. So maybe in this case, lapis represents souls and magic. Especially since now you can only find Alley in these mansions, you can imagine them sapping the soul energy from those cute little things. But hey.. that's just a theory
Maybe the “unspeakable activities” are uncrossing their arms. Hey game theory if you see this I have a theory of why villagers don’t use there hands (it really relates to value of emeralds)
New theory: The illagers don't have unibrows because they shave the middle part when performing the surgery that implants lapis lazuli into their skulls.
Its interesting how Evokers and Illusioners are the only ones with green eyes. Vindicators and Pillagers have blue eyes instead... interesting because the Villagers also have green eyes. Vindicators and Pillagers can't use any form of magic, yet _Villagers_ can trade enchantments books when they have the librarian job. I wonder if that's a coincidence or not...
Imagine if their experiments actually worked, like if there was a really rare chance of you spawning in a woodland mansion instead of the usual spawn areas
This makes me think about the zombies under the igloos. Maybe they first were exiled to the snowy biome and then relocated to the woods once they got sick of it and had enough other exiled villagers
Theory: Evokers turn blue sheep red as an attempt to bar any other creature such as the player from replicating their experiments. No access to blue wool = no experiment. Also, the original way to make blue wool was from using lapis. Maybe the reason they can attempt these experiments is through the connection between the dye and magic?
Oh my gosh that is such an amazing theory and it fits so well. I never thought of the fact that blue dye is made specifically from lapis and that that makes blue dye magical. Because we know that lapis is specifically magical, not only because of enchanting but also because in Minecraft Legends it can be used for the express purpose of spawning mobs to help the player.
He didn’t mention vex’s which are incorporeal beings that are summoned by evokes. Literally creating life, or potentially summoning dead people back to life in spirit form Which would indicate that Minecraft has an afterlife.
And don’t forget the vindicator (?) summons crocodile (?) things from the floor! (I think it’s the vindicator :/ might be something else I’m thinking of though)
@JustAnotherNobody or maybe those souls are the dead villagers and illagers that got turned into Vex. Implying that here reallys is an afterlife in Minecraft. I cant help but sense some aggression in your comment which is off putting and disrespectful.
It is so calming when you play your hardcore world and listen to these amazing theories about the game you are playing . Even better if the theory matches whatever you are doing at the moment
I know this doesn’t seem very possible but here’s a little theory: We all have noticed a few things differences in illagers and villagers. The two eyebrows and uncrossed hand can be explained easily with a pair of shears and a change in wardrobe, but the blue eyes and pale blue-ish skin don’t make much sense if they’re just exiled villagers.What If the use and over exposure of lapis lazuli caused their skin and eyes to become blue colored.
What if the wool is the byproduct of their secret rituals. Starts with blocks of lapis after the magic is drained out there is only these wool like blocks left?
That makes a lot of sense. i reckon if villagers used diamonds or gold to trade then their eyes would change to match. how? maybe there is some magical aspect or maybe villagers choose mates based on how much their eye colour resembles their currency
I just wanted to point out two things that may be relevant. 1: Illagers don’t attack baby villagers which means they must have SOME good morals. 2: During village raids witches appear sometimes.
I prefer to interpret point 1 as either good ol' child abduction to boost the number of cultists or as the illagers wanting to keep the village alive so that they can raid it again. Like cattle farming.
This raises the implication that the Villagers are looking at Steve like "Don't give me that sass! I see your two separate eyebrows -- I know what state your mental health is in!"
That's always been my problem about theories... It's always seemed like the devs are watching theories and going "Yep... We intended that... Definitely!" or "Oooohhhhh... Almoooosst~ Not wrong but also not right~"
A theory that goes with this: What if the illagers actually succeeded in creating this "god" being, but it wasn't what they expected. Perhaps they created us, the player, the one who is the character in every single minecraft world. You mentioned in other theories that there was a civilization that was the "builders," and we could definitely be one of them. However, notice how our player has one ability that seems to be completely lacking in the builders. We can revive, no matter when and where we die. Such ability can be seen as godlike, perhaps artificial. Artificial like a power gained from being revived using a totem of undying through a ritual.
A point to add to this, is didn’t MatPat say in an earlier theory say that zombies come from the builders that came before? If so did the illagers find some builder body’s or skeletons and experimented on them creating the zombies and skeletons we find
Here's a theory: What if at one point in time, the illagers actually SUCCEEDED in reviving a builder from the undead, because we're forgetting the most important person in minecraft: YOU I mean assuming that endermen are indeed evolved forms of builders, it would take a few thousand years of evolution to get to that state. It's not likely that some builders were able to survive the Wither in the overworld so MAYBE just MAAAYYBE, Steve and Alex are successful attempts of the Illagers in resurrecting the builders
What if the Illagers attempt to recreate Steve leads to the creation of hero brine? I know it may seem impossible, but I still wanna see if this theory of mine could end up being part of the main lore of minecraft.
With all the research that goes into these videos, every “HEY BUT THATS JUST A THEORY” genuinely surprises me every time. I forget during the actual video that everything is just a theory because of all the reasoning, research and just how convincing it is.
It’s entirely possible that the Illigers /did/ make Steve. We don’t know where the player character came from in the games- perhaps the illigers were finally successful, but the player hasn’t been as subservient as their other creations
I’m surprised he didn’t talk about the igloos. if you’ve ever been to the snow plains biome sometimes you can find these random igloos (I sometimes find them around the villages). If you look underneath the carpet sometimes you just find grass blocks but other times you can find a trap door. going down the trap door you can find two prison cells. One with a villager and one with a zombie villager. There’s also a brewing stand and a chest in the chest you can find a golden apple in the brewing stand you can find a potion of weakness. if you splash the potion of weakness on the zombie villager and give it the Golden Apple it will start to be cured. It will eventually turn back into a regular villager. Maybe these igloos are evidence of illagers unspeakable acts.
@@mr.jamster8414 What are you talking about people of all ages can play mindcraft and enjoy it. Just because of the stereotypes dosent mean we're all children.
They might be trying to make Steve because he is the only being in this world to respawn, which might make them want to try to harness his power to allow them to respawn...
Hmm, interesting thought, I didn’t even think of that! Maybe the whole thing is fake, maybe the illagers are just running a simulation on there own created being and the end is just something they made, the wool structure just being a diagram/ original version of it.
i thinkk i kniwwhat it is its ender mites that found the end city and they in fused in the purpur blocks i think thats how they got the shell ..... or they just have a life cycle of that its just a theory
Theory: the ancient builders made the elytra out of phantom membrane when entering the end portal some escaped the dragon and flew to the outer islands were they managed to create the end ships where they did their experiments (evidenced by the brewing stand in the ship) using end stone and purpur they managed to create the shulkers ( using a phantom membrane they managed to reverse the effects of slow falling) more Extras: the heads of the shulkers match the color of end stone.
Herobrine: "in the game for some time then removed saying he was a bug but nobody actually knew if he was removed" Years later Illigers: trying to bring Herobrine back or back to life
“Tbh yes it’s like I’m so interested and stressed cuz I really just wanna know then he says “end quote” it’s so relaxing and he just removes all the stress” end quote
My theory: think about every mob in a raid. The witch, pillager, evoker, vindicator, and ravager. They all have something in common with villagers. The witch is the only one that doesn't attack villagers. Why is that? Think about how one can spawn. They can spawn by a villager being struck by lightning. The witch can also spawn in witch huts. Those spawn in swamps, one of the only biomes that villages don't spawn. What if the witches don't attack villagers because they don't have anything against them. I think that the witches, after being struck by lightning, left their villages thinking they would be shunned like the illagers, or feeling like freaks, and they moved where the villager couldn't. They might only be on raids because they are slaves to the evoker. Why? Think about the prisons in the mansions. What one block do they have besides carpet? Cauldrons. I think this is for, not for sinks for villagers, but for witches to create potions for the evoker. The evoker can't create them. They heal illagers on raids, but refuse to attack their race because the villagers never did anything to them.
Mini theory: As lapis was for the sumerians thought to posses the souls of gods the illagers might have the same thought but that lapis posseses the souls of villagers, illagers and maybe the "steve" that they are trying to make. They might have the lapiz for a symbolic reason as a showing of their own souls.
i still think that lapis posseses the souls of gods to make more sense because mainly you get lapis by mining. it wouldn't make sense for it to posseses the souls of villagers.
Theory: since the villagers cant build, they got the ancient builders to do it for them, after these builders went missing, presumably extinct, the villagers couldn't expand their villages. This is when the illigers tried to create new builders to help build more villages. The other villages saw what they were doing, trying to defy the rules of life and death, so they cast them out for trying to play god. This probably explanes why they were trying to get to the end, so that they could get the emdermen back and try to make them back onto this ancient civilisation.
Adhnuall this would make sense, especially because of the raid ideas and villager killings. You did a good job taking evidence out of this video and digging deeper on some things from previous ones, and putting it together. Maybe the illagers were not all bad guys, but just want to protect you from their findings, and seek revenge on the ones who “evoked” them in the first place.
I feel like the Mojang staff can just put something on Twitter like “what is this?” Matpat: They’re right, the illagers seem to be playing with life, the prisons seem to be capturing villagers, .... Jeb, Notch, and C418: mhm, got it, yes sure sounds good
I like this theory. Just a thought, what if the illigers actually succeeded in their attempts to create Steve? Not a copy, but Steve himself. The illagers could actually be Steve's creators. The zombies were just failed attempts, but the player character was the first successful one.
That's what I'm thinking. If the old villagers all died/became endermen and things like that, why is Steve still alive? Clearly hes not a direct descendant, because 1 How could he survive, and 2 Hed be able to craft end portals like the people before him. So maybe the Illagers were successful in their attempts
But Steve spawns far away from woodland mansions, and illagers are hostile while villagers are friendly. I think that, if this theory is somewhat correct, then Steve, or someone like him, would have been a blueprint, not a result. Also, why is Alex not being created? Seems unfair.
There’s new Minecraft books that came out and the newest one is called “The End” and it takes place with 2 ENDERMEN as the protagonists! Maybe the Endermen, just like you said, really were people at some point! Just something to talk about... Edit: Spoilers ahead! So uh turns out the 2 main characters are human the entire time but were born in the end! So they have telepathic ability’s but they have been wearing a pumpkin the entire time! That’s as far as I’ve got so I’ll say more when I read more
"These are some of the rarest structures in the game" I used to play minecraft bedrock with my dad and we didn't use infinite worlds, we used old ones. Every. Single. World had a woodland mansion, this happened so much it became tradition for us to go looking, find the woodland mansion and renovate it to live in.
This kinda flips your timeline. Steve came later. Much later. So how could he be the one they’re creating zombies based off of? Unless they were based on the ancient builders, who were likely the ancestors of Steve.
I see you are a bit Confused like me, because in the the middle of the Video,Mat said that the Illagers made Zombies which i thaught were Ancient Builders.
Villagers and Ancient Builders could have coexisted, then the villagers tryed to mimic the builders with magic and messed up things, extinction happen becouse of them and their zombies and the villagers started outcasting those who made magic to prevent another holocaust
MINI THEORY Also, there are iron gollems in cages outside pillage outposts. I think pillagers invade villages to capture iron gollems, which they then take back to the mansions to be reverse engineered by the evokers, helping them with their research into making artificial life. ANOTHER MINI THEORY ZA HANDO GA KUSU commented on this with a good idea. What if the iron gollems were created by the illigers as a gift to the villagers to atone for their crimes? The only thing left unanswered in that theory is the pillagers, who don't seem remorseful at all, with all the pillaging and plundering and murder ect. ect. It is possible that the pillagers are a separate group from the other illigers, after a dispute about whether the villagers could be forgiven for kicking them out. The illigers could have forgiven the villagers, while the illigers did not. The illigers could have then stolen the raviger beasts to go on a crusade against the villigers, capturing or killing the gollems that protect them, leaving the villagers vunrable to zombies. This could be why there are no raviger beasts, pillagers or iron gollems at woodland mansions. I really hope Matpat sees this.
Achu 03 iron golems wouldn’t have DNA though, and afaik there’s no connection between horses and illagers. How they’d do that without scientific equiptment I’m not sure, I think since there’s magic in Minecraft it’s safe to say they’d just have used magic to create the ravager.
This may get lost in the comments, but you ever notice how they're gray? Like, it doesn't make sense, right? Unless, they ate something. Take for example, Silver. High consumption of Silver can turn the user Blue, which is weird but true, and eating carrots makes your skin orange. The color of the Illager's is a 484A49 color code, which is off Cyan. and they do have magic yes? And Lapis is Magical Yes? Meaning, instead of injecting into them. What if they consumed it? Thus Why you can't get it off their loot tables, cuz it's gone, But since they ate it, They have the magic. While having the same goal as to eternal life, Cuz you know magic. Edit: Fixed some spelling
Mattpatt: “they are a super rare spawn you’ll almost never see” Dream and George: *unintelligible screaming as they run past one each video* DREEEEEEEEEAAAAAMMMMM
They use the same world every video. All Minecraft speedrunners do. Otherwise, they would never be able to know exactly where their first iron was located, or know where a lava pool is so quickly.

Maybe the Illagers we’re trying to create a human (We know that they weren’t only trying to recreate Steve, as the ancient builders were around when Zombies were around, and Zombies could only spread if they killed others) because they saw that the ancient builders were a superior “species” to the Villagers/Illagers and wanted to imitate and control that power.
Steve can Hold Thousands of Tuns of gold Can Hold Buckets of Lava Can hold Magma Can hold Tuns of Ice Can punch down trees Can place blocks 4 meters away from himself with one meter long arms Can friggin CRAFT. I'd be jealous too if i was an Illager.
I know im late but i have something that confirms this theory. In the pillager outpoust they hold Iron Golems in cages, witch could then be transported to the Woodland Mansion and conduct experiments on them (Golems) etc. how they work
I have a theory: you can sometimes see that iron golem are in some cage at the towers. Iron golem can move, but their stone. Maybe they are trying to see how they live? Idk, maybe game theory can look into it
Not zombies: they are making the giant (otherwise they wouldn't need that much wool) OR RATHER. They are making a replica of the ancient builders making the giant
This comment is probs gonna be lost, but has anyone else ever noticed like the arena/ring things that the illagers have in their mansions too? Maybe they were testing out their little experiments/ravagers on people or villagers and battling them to test them in some way... Maybe testing their strength or if they’re suitable for a raid? Also, the magic thing makes sense too. Why do you think the witches are there in the first place and during raids? They must have committed “unspeakable acts” too, obviously connected to magic (edit: **correction - evil alchemy.) The raids must be for getting revenge on the villagers for kicking them out? EDIT: bRUH I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN SO MANY LIKES I tysm :,) Someone mentioned that raids only start when the captain pillager is killed and when you get the bad omen effect. But another thing is why do you see a big group of pillagers just wandering around about every 5.5 days? I wonder what they’re looking for... maybe they’re trying to find more villages to kidnap more villagers?? aAHH idk but :,)
And witches are spawned when lightning hits a villager (I’m 99% sure) so maybe lightning has something to do with the “unspeakable acts” was lightning a part of it?
fnaf trailer: came out matpat: SCREW OTHER GAMES TIME TO GET THOSE RUclips DOLLAAAAAAAAAAAAS the video austin didn't finish: exists Austin NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
A few things to notice now: With the arrival of some of the more recent betas, the allay can be found in woodland mansions and pillager outposts, so it's pretty safe to assume the illagers are doing something to create them. Keep looking and you'll find that, aside from enderman or mobs with weapons, villagers and allays are some of the only mobs that can hold items in their hand VISIBLY. Give an allay an item and it'll carry it. For a villager, hold an item they wants to trade and it'll give an offer back in their hands (e.g. hold an emerald and they'll hold enchanted books, bricks, redstone, etc.) This next one is admittedly a bit weaker, but it's still worth noticing that allays have the unusually large heads relative to their body that are reserved for baby mobs. The only other mobs with this sort of attribute are villagers and illagers with taller heads compared to, say, a zombie with a much more cubed head (ignoring the strider since its entire body is a head with legs). It's also worth noting that allays aren't considered "undead" mobs, since hitting them with a potion of healing doesn't harm them. Additionally, there are particles that resemble those of sculk censors and the warden that get emitted when a note block is played near them in Bedrock Edition. Whether these 2 things get changed or not since we're still in the betas remains unknown. Last, but definitely not least, is the fact that the vex and the allay's names are contradictory to one another. Allay means "to diminish or put to rest fear, suspicion, or worry" while vex means to annoy or frustrate someone. Why this is the case, I still can't really say. Maybe it's the behaviour in that vexes are really annoying to kill since they can move through walls while allays are more calm and help the player out. I feel like maybe the allays name is meant to signify the death of a villager undergoing the transformation, since, in many beliefs, nothing clear worry or fear more than death itself or maybe the suspicion is cleared from others once the individual dies. That's all I've been able to piece together. I hope someone (MatPat) is able to find the lore behind them!
Illager: How about another joke Villager? Villager: No I think we had enough of your jokes. Illager: What do you get- Villager: I don't think so. Illager: when you cross a mentally ill loner with a SOCIETY THAT ABANDONS HIM, AND TREATS HIM LIKE TRAASH! Villager: Call the Iron Gollum. Call the Iron Gollum. Illager: I'LL THELL YOU WHAT YOU GET. YOU GET WHAT YOU FREAKING DESERVE! (Shoots arrow at villager)

I would call that a stretch, but, then again, this is a game with antropromorthic pigs and diant beasts made out of villagers.

This makes me think about the zombies under the igloos. Maybe they first were exiled to the snowy biome and then relocated to the woods once they got sick of it and had enough other exiled villagers

The Illagers real secret is that they are trying to bring Herobrine back, who keeps getting removed with each patch.
exactly
Maybe they might make more than herobrine maybe an entity more powerful like entity 303
If they’re trying to build another Steve, maybe they succeeded? They _made_ herobrine.

Theory: Evokers turn blue sheep red as an attempt to bar any other creature such as the player from replicating their experiments. No access to blue wool = no experiment. Also, the original way to make blue wool was from using lapis. Maybe the reason they can attempt these experiments is through the connection between the dye and magic?
They are just dying the sheep blue with lapis?

Oh my gosh that is such an amazing theory and it fits so well. I never thought of the fact that blue dye is made specifically from lapis and that that makes blue dye magical. Because we know that lapis is specifically magical, not only because of enchanting but also because in Minecraft Legends it can be used for the express purpose of spawning mobs to help the player.

He didn’t mention vex’s which are incorporeal beings that are summoned by evokes. Literally creating life, or potentially summoning dead people back to life in spirit form Which would indicate that Minecraft has an afterlife.

@@DashMatin Undead spirits with swords
I know this doesn’t seem very possible but here’s a little theory: We all have noticed a few things differences in illagers and villagers. The two eyebrows and uncrossed hand can be explained easily with a pair of shears and a change in wardrobe, but the blue eyes and pale blue-ish skin don’t make much sense if they’re just exiled villagers.What If the use and over exposure of lapis lazuli caused their skin and eyes to become blue colored.
Thats actually frickin cool
And that also probably gave evokers their magical abilities.
Or they brought themselves back from the dead
What if the wool is the byproduct of their secret rituals. Starts with blocks of lapis after the magic is drained out there is only these wool like blocks left?
That makes a lot of sense. i reckon if villagers used diamonds or gold to trade then their eyes would change to match. how? maybe there is some magical aspect or maybe villagers choose mates based on how much their eye colour resembles their currency
I just wanted to point out two things that may be relevant.
1: Illagers don’t attack baby villagers which means they must have SOME good morals.
2: During village raids witches appear sometimes.

😂

He would have a lot more game developers down there
A theory that goes with this: What if the illagers actually succeeded in creating this "god" being, but it wasn't what they expected. Perhaps they created us, the player, the one who is the character in every single minecraft world. You mentioned in other theories that there was a civilization that was the "builders," and we could definitely be one of them. However, notice how our player has one ability that seems to be completely lacking in the builders. We can revive, no matter when and where we die. Such ability can be seen as godlike, perhaps artificial. Artificial like a power gained from being revived using a totem of undying through a ritual.
Correct or not, I like this theory. Who came first, the zombie or the Steve? 😦
This is actually a compelling idea. Perhaps you should try and dive deeper into this.
Unless you're on hardcore, lol.
A point to add to this, is didn’t MatPat say in an earlier theory say that zombies come from the builders that came before? If so did the illagers find some builder body’s or skeletons and experimented on them creating the zombies and skeletons we find
Maybe after failed attempts to make Steve and instead made zombies they succeed and created Steve and Alex
Here's a theory: What if at one point in time, the illagers actually SUCCEEDED in reviving a builder from the undead, because we're forgetting the most important person in minecraft: YOU
I mean assuming that endermen are indeed evolved forms of builders, it would take a few thousand years of evolution to get to that state. It's not likely that some builders were able to survive the Wither in the overworld so MAYBE just MAAAYYBE,
Steve and Alex are successful attempts of the Illagers in resurrecting the builders
Then why they attack the player?
Probably because we (or I) have more power than they do and like this other person said they want to have control of us or maybe even ask the game
wow i read all that and it is DEEEEP
@Daniella Nanjari i agree
Oh my-
What if the Illagers attempt to recreate Steve leads to the creation of hero brine? I know it may seem impossible, but I still wanna see if this theory of mine could end up being part of the main lore of minecraft.
Maybe the Illagers are just trying to recreate Steve because he's the only one with the ability of immortality, AKA "respawning".

It’s entirely possible that the Illigers /did/ make Steve. We don’t know where the player character came from in the games- perhaps the illigers were finally successful, but the player hasn’t been as subservient as their other creations

I’m surprised he didn’t talk about the igloos. if you’ve ever been to the snow plains biome sometimes you can find these random igloos (I sometimes find them around the villages). If you look underneath the carpet sometimes you just find grass blocks but other times you can find a trap door. going down the trap door you can find two prison cells. One with a villager and one with a zombie villager. There’s also a brewing stand and a chest in the chest you can find a golden apple in the brewing stand you can find a potion of weakness. if you splash the potion of weakness on the zombie villager and give it the Golden Apple it will start to be cured. It will eventually turn back into a regular villager. Maybe these igloos are evidence of illagers unspeakable acts.

Theory: the ancient builders made the elytra out of phantom membrane when entering the end portal some escaped the dragon and flew to the outer islands were they managed to create the end ships where they did their experiments (evidenced by the brewing stand in the ship) using end stone and purpur they managed to create the shulkers ( using a phantom membrane they managed to reverse the effects of slow falling)

Not gonna lie this is a good idea for a new mob
My theory: think about every mob in a raid. The witch, pillager, evoker, vindicator, and ravager. They all have something in common with villagers. The witch is the only one that doesn't attack villagers. Why is that? Think about how one can spawn. They can spawn by a villager being struck by lightning. The witch can also spawn in witch huts. Those spawn in swamps, one of the only biomes that villages don't spawn. What if the witches don't attack villagers because they don't have anything against them. I think that the witches, after being struck by lightning, left their villages thinking they would be shunned like the illagers, or feeling like freaks, and they moved where the villager couldn't. They might only be on raids because they are slaves to the evoker. Why? Think about the prisons in the mansions. What one block do they have besides carpet? Cauldrons. I think this is for, not for sinks for villagers, but for witches to create potions for the evoker. The evoker can't create them. They heal illagers on raids, but refuse to attack their race because the villagers never did anything to them.

Mini theory: As lapis was for the sumerians thought to posses the souls of gods the illagers might have the same thought but that lapis posseses the souls of villagers, illagers and maybe the "steve" that they are trying to make. They might have the lapiz for a symbolic reason as a showing of their own souls.
What about Herobrine? I know he wasn't mentioned in the theory but its a possibility...
the cells could be to left villager to get a soul and a body to make a replica of steve
@@thecrimsonguy the cells might have been used to extract the "soul" of the villagers to use to try and create Steve
If they're trying to show their own souls the maybe just maybe they have STANDO POWA
i still think that lapis posseses the souls of gods to make more sense because mainly you get lapis by mining. it wouldn't make sense for it to posseses the souls of villagers.
Theory: since the villagers cant build, they got the ancient builders to do it for them, after these builders went missing, presumably extinct, the villagers couldn't expand their villages. This is when the illigers tried to create new builders to help build more villages. The other villages saw what they were doing, trying to defy the rules of life and death, so they cast them out for trying to play god. This probably explanes why they were trying to get to the end, so that they could get the emdermen back and try to make them back onto this ancient civilisation.

I like this theory. Just a thought, what if the illigers actually succeeded in their attempts to create Steve? Not a copy, but Steve himself. The illagers could actually be Steve's creators. The zombies were just failed attempts, but the player character was the first successful one.
That must be why I've been obsessed with creating an army of illagers to take over the overworld... Orb of dominance, here I come!
That's what I'm thinking. If the old villagers all died/became endermen and things like that, why is Steve still alive? Clearly hes not a direct descendant, because 1 How could he survive, and 2 Hed be able to craft end portals like the people before him. So maybe the Illagers were successful in their attempts
I doubt so. Steve might actually be the first and only successful result of an old builder experiment to revive the dead
Yeah, also what if Steve turned on the illagers, with villagers who exiled illagers, that’s why they attack the player.
But Steve spawns far away from woodland mansions, and illagers are hostile while villagers are friendly. I think that, if this theory is somewhat correct, then Steve, or someone like him, would have been a blueprint, not a result.
Also, why is Alex not being created?
Seems unfair.
There’s new Minecraft books that came out and the newest one is called “The End” and it takes place with 2 ENDERMEN as the protagonists! Maybe the Endermen, just like you said, really were people at some point! Just something to talk about...

This kinda flips your timeline. Steve came later. Much later. So how could he be the one they’re creating zombies based off of? Unless they were based on the ancient builders, who were likely the ancestors of Steve.
I see you are a bit Confused like me, because in the the middle of the Video,Mat said that the Illagers made Zombies which i thaught were Ancient Builders.
Villagers and Ancient Builders could have coexisted, then the villagers tryed to mimic the builders with magic and messed up things, extinction happen becouse of them and their zombies and the villagers started outcasting those who made magic to prevent another holocaust
Perhaps herobrine came first, and the illagers attempted to recreate him.
I assumed that the pillagers wanted to revive the ancient builders since they coexisted with each other
Celeste Bautista then why does they attack the play character?
MINI THEORY
Also, there are iron gollems in cages outside pillage outposts. I think pillagers invade villages to capture iron gollems, which they then take back to the mansions to be reverse engineered by the evokers, helping them with their research into making artificial life.
ANOTHER MINI THEORY
ZA HANDO GA KUSU commented on this with a good idea. What if the iron gollems were created by the illigers as a gift to the villagers to atone for their crimes? The only thing left unanswered in that theory is the pillagers, who don't seem remorseful at all, with all the pillaging and plundering and murder ect. ect.
It is possible that the pillagers are a separate group from the other illigers, after a dispute about whether the villagers could be forgiven for kicking them out. The illigers could have forgiven the villagers, while the illigers did not. The illigers could have then stolen the raviger beasts to go on a crusade against the villigers, capturing or killing the gollems that protect them, leaving the villagers vunrable to zombies.
This could be why there are no raviger beasts, pillagers or iron gollems at woodland mansions.
I really hope Matpat sees this.
*That actually sounds reasonable.*
*big brain detected*
Umm..... that sounds right
So...
Villager + Iron Golem + Magic = Ravager?
Achu 03 iron golems wouldn’t have DNA though, and afaik there’s no connection between horses and illagers. How they’d do that without scientific equiptment I’m not sure, I think since there’s magic in Minecraft it’s safe to say they’d just have used magic to create the ravager.
This may get lost in the comments, but you ever notice how they're gray? Like, it doesn't make sense, right? Unless, they ate something.
Take for example, Silver. High consumption of Silver can turn the user Blue, which is weird but true, and eating carrots makes your skin orange. The color of the Illager's is a 484A49 color code, which is off Cyan. and they do have magic yes? And Lapis is Magical Yes? Meaning, instead of injecting into them.
What if they consumed it? Thus Why you can't get it off their loot tables, cuz it's gone, But since they ate it, They have the magic. While having the same goal as to eternal life,

That’s not part of the lore really it’s just there
Steve can
Hold Thousands of Tuns of gold
Can Hold Buckets of Lava
Can hold Magma
Can hold Tuns of Ice
Can punch down trees
Can place blocks 4 meters away from himself with one meter long arms
Can friggin CRAFT.
I'd be jealous too if i was an Illager.
but if he had creative they already know they can never defeat him
I know im late but i have something that confirms this theory. In the pillager outpoust they hold Iron Golems in cages, witch could then be transported to the Woodland Mansion and conduct experiments on them (Golems) etc. how they work
Illagers: “I have commited 10 war crimes against the Plains Village Area”
OMG Hi
Oh hello there, didn't know that you also watched matpat
Villagers "how many war crimes have you done"
Illigers "YES"
Wow Memetastic watches GT. +Respecc
You didn't plug your discord server for once... MIRACLE
MatPat: "They're trying to make.."
Me: "Herobrine!"
MatPat: "Steve."
* insert surprised pikachu face *
Kaylah Luna herobrine is a joke from mincraft then people fake it
I was thinking that MatPat was going to say that Mojang wants to add a HeroBrine boss in the future
I know right!
When matpat said steve and then zombies I thought it was gonna be Herobrine to

Yes

oh my god did they make the wither?
@@anonymousboiyo9426 It is created.
I have a theory: you can sometimes see that iron golem are in some cage at the towers. Iron golem can move, but their stone. Maybe they are trying to see how they live? Idk, maybe game theory can look into it
Theory: the “unspeakable acts” done by the illigers were plucking their unibrows
Dun dun duuuuuu
Bud I love you so much for this comment. Thank you for the cackles
@@silvertheorist cackles what are you a witch
We all thought this in our minds
It all adds up
it’s interesting how the illagers creating zombies when they were trying to make steve resembles the plot of Frankenstein
The developers probably did that on purpose for a reference
It would make more sense than Steve looking like a modern dude in an obviously not modern world
I thought he was gonna say Herobrine
Not zombies: they are making the giant (otherwise they wouldn't need that much wool)
OR RATHER. They are making a replica of the ancient builders making the giant
Yeah, it’s probably what inspired them.
Illigers: **literally trying to play god**
Steve: *_haha big spoopy rare house_*
Maybe the illagers are hostile because they don't get enough attention
They are the only hostile mobs that lives like gods...
...in a mansion in the middle of nowhere...
yes
its called illagers short for villagers
One day i hope mojang would release the full lore of Minecraft it would break the internet
This comment is probs gonna be lost, but has anyone else ever noticed like the arena/ring things that the illagers have in their mansions too? Maybe they were testing out their little experiments/ravagers on people or villagers and battling them to test them in some way... Maybe testing their strength or if they’re suitable for a raid? Also, the magic thing makes sense too. Why do you think the witches are there in the first place and during raids? They must have committed “unspeakable acts” too, obviously connected to magic (edit: **correction - evil alchemy.) The raids must be for getting revenge on the villagers for kicking them out?
EDIT: bRUH I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN SO MANY LIKES I tysm :,)
Someone mentioned that raids only start when the captain pillager is killed and when you get the bad omen effect. But another thing is why do you see a big group of pillagers just wandering around about every 5.5 days? I wonder what they’re looking for... maybe they’re trying to find more villages to kidnap more villagers?? aAHH idk but :,)
bump
The witches probably got booted for evil alchemy, not magic. But it does make sense.
That's my theory
And witches are spawned when lightning hits a villager (I’m 99% sure) so maybe lightning has something to do with the “unspeakable acts” was lightning a part of it?
@@jackofalltrades4545 I didn’t read the whole comment section...? I don’t even know what your theory was and I didn’t copy anyone
Matpat : They're trying to build a new Steve
Mojang( teasing lore that they probably haven't come up with yet): Oh that's good, WRITE THAT DOWN!!!
XD
Herobrine: It’s showtime.
this actually be possible wtf
Definitely trying to resurrect their God herobrine
That could be true
"the illagers were kicked from the villages for doing unspeakable activities"
implying that what every player does isn't "unspeakable activities"
If you wanna know the "unspeakable activities" are them trimming their unibrows
yeah building iron farms or gold farms or farms that farm stuff that probably shouldn't be farmed, you know? It's normal
Samuel Wolf like enslaving villagers
OHHH come on like you've never killed people, practiced dark magic and cause a world wide zombie epidemic or something like that!
Not every player turn people into animals
"Every villager has green eyes." Me: *Ted-Ed riddle flashbacks*
Literally any game: *Exists*
MatPat: *H E A V Y B R E A T H I N G*

the video austin didn't finish: exists
Austin NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
No-one: ...
MatPat: HELLO INTERNET !!!!!!!
SabaKhazhomia 13 Austin literally makes a video and the first thing I hear is angry screaming
"They were trying to rebuild Steve"
Me:....This doesn't have anything to do with Herobrine now, does it?
i was thinking that too
Oh I hope not.
My thoughts exactly. But, what if that's their over arching plan?
Devon Lopez maybe ;)
Herobrime in minecraft confirmed?
MatPat: "The rare dark forest biome"
Me: *Spawns in a dark forest biome for the 93883848484th time in a row* "Am I a joke to you?"
Szymon Pazdan yes you are a joke to me
I know right
It happens to me sometimes
Szymon Pazdan thought i commented on this video and forgot for a sec
Same buzy burning the biggest biome I have ever seen down to create my own forest.
A few things to notice now:
With the arrival of some of the more recent betas, the allay can be found in woodland mansions and pillager outposts, so it's pretty safe to assume the illagers are doing something to create them.
Keep looking and you'll find that, aside from enderman or mobs with weapons, villagers and allays are some of the only mobs that can hold items in their hand VISIBLY. Give an allay an item and it'll carry it. For a villager, hold an item they wants to trade and it'll give an offer back in their hands (e.g. hold an emerald and they'll hold enchanted books, bricks, redstone, etc.)
This next one is admittedly a bit weaker, but it's still worth noticing that allays have the unusually large heads relative to their body that are reserved for baby mobs. The only other mobs with this sort of attribute are villagers and illagers with taller heads compared to, say, a zombie with a much more cubed head (ignoring the strider since its entire body is a head with legs).
It's also worth noting that allays aren't considered "undead" mobs, since hitting them with a potion of healing doesn't harm them. Additionally, there are particles that resemble those of sculk censors and the warden that get emitted when a note block is played near them in Bedrock Edition. Whether these 2 things get changed or not since we're still in the betas remains unknown.
Last, but definitely not least, is the fact that the vex and the allay's names are contradictory to one another. Allay means "to diminish or put to rest fear, suspicion, or worry" while vex means to annoy or frustrate someone. Why this is the case, I still can't really say. Maybe it's the behaviour in that vexes are really annoying to kill since they can move through walls while allays are more calm and help the player out. I feel like maybe the allays name is meant to signify the death of a villager undergoing the transformation, since, in many beliefs, nothing clear worry or fear more than death itself or maybe the suspicion is cleared from others once the individual dies.
That's all I've been able to piece together. I hope someone (MatPat) is able to find the lore behind them!
illagers be like: smh we live in a *_society_*
Illager: How about another joke Villager?
Villager: No I think we had enough of your jokes.
Illager: What do you get-
Villager: I don't think so.
Illager: when you cross a mentally ill loner with a SOCIETY THAT ABANDONS HIM, AND TREATS HIM LIKE TRAASH!
Villager: Call the Iron Gollum. Call the Iron Gollum.
Illager: I'LL THELL YOU WHAT YOU GET. YOU GET WHAT YOU FREAKING DESERVE! (Shoots arrow at villager)

You should've mentioned the shackles around the Beast's ankles, further proving the idea that the villagers were enslaved to make the Beasts.
Maybe if They were taken off they could become normal villagers or neutral maybe it's kind of like the shackles tighten around them or hurt them Man I just Feel badd for them they are probly just picking carrots before they got nabbed right I just feel badd for the squidward looking boys
