Corrupted Villager

Quickstart

1. Open the Creative inventory and search for Corrupted Villager Spawn Egg.
2. Use the spawn egg on the ground to create a Corrupted Villager.
3. Interact with it immediately to inspect its villager role and available trades.
4. Watch it for about one minute: the Corrupted Villager transforms into a Ravager when its timer expires.

There is no crafting recipe for the spawn egg. The mob cannot be created with /summon; use its spawn egg or find one naturally.

Overview

The Corrupted Villager is a twisted villager mob with familiar villager behavior and a dangerous fate. It can wander, work, sleep, trade, avoid hostile creatures, and live in villages—but it automatically transforms into a Ravager after roughly 60 seconds.

It is persistent, so it does not simply despawn while you prepare an experiment or encounter.

What It Adds

• Corrupted Villager
  • A villager-like mob with corrupted visuals.
  • Adult and child variants.
  • Random villager biomes and professions.
  • Villager schedules, jobs, and trading behavior.
  • Automatic transformation into a Ravager.
• Corrupted Villager Spawn Egg
  • Available in the Creative inventory.
  • Use it on a block to spawn the mob.

How To Use

Spawning With The Egg

Find Corrupted Villager Spawn Egg in the Creative inventory and use it on a suitable block. The mob can appear as an adult or child and receives a random villager-style appearance and role.

The spawn egg is the main way to create the Corrupted Villager manually. It is not summonable with /summon.

Natural Spawning

Corrupted Villagers can naturally spawn:

• In village-tagged areas.
• On the surface.
• On grass blocks, dirt, sand, snow, or podzol.
• In light levels from 0 through 7.
• On Easy, Normal, or Hard difficulty.
• In groups of one or two.

Natural spawning does not occur on Peaceful difficulty.

Trading

Adult profession variants can be interacted with like villagers. Approach one and use the normal interact control to open its trade screen.

Possible roles include:

• Armorer
• Butcher
• Cartographer
• Cleric
• Farmer
• Fisherman
• Fletcher
• Leatherworker
• Librarian
• Mason
• Shepherd
• Toolsmith
• Weaponsmith
• Nitwit

The profession and available offers are determined when the villager is created. Child variants do not provide the usual adult trading experience.

Abilities And Mechanics

Villager Behavior

The Corrupted Villager:

• Wanders around villages and nearby areas.
• Follows a villager-style daily schedule.
• Can work at appropriate job sites.
• Can gather with other villagers.
• Can move indoors, seek a bed, and sleep.
• Avoids zombies, zombie villagers, illagers, vexes, and zoglins.
• Can open doors and move through water when necessary.
• Can pick up nearby items.

It does not have a normal player-attacking behavior.

Timed Ravager Transformation

A Corrupted Villager has a 60-second timer. When the timer ends, it transforms into a Ravager.

This applies whether the villager was found naturally or spawned with an egg, so move quickly if you want to trade with or study one.

Other Transformations

Lightning does not directly deal its normal damage before the witch transformation.

Health And Movement

• Health: 20
• Movement speed: approximately 0.5
• Can climb and open doors.
• Avoids water when pathfinding.
• Takes damage from lava.

Crafting And Obtaining

The Corrupted Villager has no crafting recipe.

Obtain it by:

• Finding one during natural spawning.
• Using the Corrupted Villager Spawn Egg from the Creative inventory.

Drops

When killed, a Corrupted Villager can drop:

• Up to 2 rotten flesh.
• A chance for iron nuggets when killed by a player.
• A smaller chance for an emerald when killed by a player.

Looting can increase the player-kill drops.

Progression And Strategy

• Trade first. The 60-second transformation timer makes every encounter temporary.
• Check the role immediately. Adult professions can provide different villager-style trade offers.
• Use a secure enclosure. A fenced or walled area prevents the villager from wandering away before you interact with it.
• Keep hostile mobs away. Zombies and husks can trigger a Zombie Villager transformation on Normal or Hard difficulty.
• Control the surroundings. Lightning can turn the mob into a witch, while the timer eventually produces a Ravager.
• Plan experiments around the timer. Spawn several Corrupted Villagers together to observe their professions, schedules, trades, and transformations before the group changes.
