A creeper is a common hostile mob that quietly approaches players and then explodes, which can destroy blocks and deal massive amounts of damage. Creepers are a major source of gunpowder as well as the only way to obtain most music discs. Due to its distinctive appearance and unique destructive method of attack, the creeper has become one of the most iconic mobs of Minecraft, being featured in promotional material and merchandise.
