{{For|other types of minor characters|Character (disambiguation)}}{{More images|Exterminator}}{{Stub}}

Throughout several series of [[Minecraft:Minecraft books|books]], many '''minor characters''' appear. These are characters with names and personalities, but no sufficient depth.

== Max Brooks' trilogy ==

=== King Graham ===
During ''[[Minecraft: The Island]]'', [[Minecraft:Guy]] discovers a [[Minecraft:painting]], ''[[Minecraft:Graham]]''. He immediately recognizes it as being the main character of the game ''{{Wikipedia|King's Quest}}'', faintly remembering it for reasons beyond him.

=== Lopp ===
Hubunit Lopp invites [[Minecraft:Ultimo the Magnificent|Mo]] to be part of an endstacking, a group of Endermen devoted to working on a task. This offer is rejected.

=== Vegg ===
Vegg is a prominent strategy master of the End, who proposes that the Endermen were not the original creators of the End during the Endmoot. This begins a small argument.

=== Wakas ===
An [[Minecraft:enderman]] shepherd who lives in the [[Minecraft:End]]. During a meeting at the central island, they mention that the End "is the land of our people" and that Endermen "have lived here since the beginning."

The Royal Twins of Far Nalur were two significant figures in the territory of Far Nalur. At one point, before the story began, the twins were kidnapped by an unknown party. The twins were eventually rescued by Abel under the conditions that he would remain exempt from taxes until his next birthday.

=== Dante ===
Dante was a kind friend of [[Minecraft:Morgan Mercado]] who moved away. Dante first showed him {{MC}} and he created a skyscraper. Morgan found that a gargoyle in the build had a block of [[Minecraft:gravel]] rather than [[Minecraft:cobblestone]]. Morgan attempted to fix it but couldn't. Dante told him that he had set it so that only he could edit blocks.

=== Exterminator ===
During the events of {{WSC|2}}, [[Minecraft:Woodsword Middle School]] became overrun with [[Minecraft:Bats (Woodsword Chronicles)|bats]], who ended up taking over the gymnasium. In spite of [[Minecraft:Ms. Minerva]] and her class objecting, an exterminator was called over by the school board to kill them. He is depicted as a middle aged man wearing a jumpsuit, a pilot's hat, and a strange vacuum-like device on his back, similar to the {{Wikipedia|proton pack}} from the ''{{Wikipedia|Ghostbusters (franchise)|Ghostbusters}}'' franchise. He arrived on Saturday, driving up in a van decorated with creatures marked with red slashes, but was quickly told the situation has been resolved peacefully. Frustrated, the exterminator drives off without a gig.

=== Fantasies ===
In many books, there are several, usually brief, fantasies done by characters. Upon enrolling in [[Minecraft:Woodsword Middle School]], Ash was reminded of a fantasy castle, imagining a swarm of bats flying out of it. These are drawn differently from the [[Minecraft:Bats (Woodsword Chronicles)|bats]] in the following book. In {{WSC|6}}, when [[Minecraft:Ms. Minerva]] asks what causes rainbows, [[Minecraft:Jodi Mercado|Jodi]] fantasizes about {{Wikipedia|leprechauns}}, and proceeds to give them as an answer. In {{WSC|5|1}}, while speculating on the source of the [[Minecraft:Evoker King]]'s powers, Jodi speculates it could be a unicorn mob, or an "AI Genie."

Throughout the series, there's a running gag of characters making assumptions about [[Minecraft:Doc Culpepper]], usually outlandish and unfounded. Upon first being introduced, it was proposed she might have come from the future, losing a war against evil robots and emerging through a time portal. In reality, she drove to the school in a minivan. In {{WSC|1|2}}, Jodi, while under the codename [[Minecraft:Agent J]], suggestions that she is in the process of "replacing the librarians with cyborgs." While doing this, she imagines a robot working at the library, not a cyborg.
=== Giaco ===
Giaco is a student at [[Minecraft:Woodsword Middle School]] who participates in the [[Minecraft:coral jewelry]] trend. Giaco informs [[Minecraft:Harper Houston]] that there is a website on which coral jewelry can be ordered and purchase. This irritates Harper, who is concerned about the environmental impact of the trend.

=== Mr. Mellohi ===
Mr. Mellohi is the principal's assistant. When trying to figure out if the [[Minecraft:Evoker King]] goes to Woodsword Middle School, [[Minecraft:Jodi]] asks him what room [[Minecraft:Morgan Mercado]] had detention in the day before under the pretense of looking for his lost science textbook. Mr. Mellohi states that he is not permitted to inform her.

Mr. Mellohi's name could be a tribute to the [[Minecraft:music disc mellohi]].

== Guidebooks ==

=== Survivors' pets ===
Within the [[Minecraft:Survivors' Book of Secrets]], [[Minecraft:the Survivors]] are shown to possess at least two golems. Alfred, an [[Minecraft:iron golem]] shown fighting a [[Minecraft:zombie]], and Tina, a [[Minecraft:snow golem]] with arranged [[Minecraft:bricks]].

== Dark Horse Comics ==

=== Catman ===
Within the opening of [[Minecraft: Volume 1]], it's established that series protagonist [[Minecraft:Tyler]] is a fan of a comic book character named Catman. He has a poster of the character on his wall, which took priority while unboxing, as well as a comic book and an action figure. Although the name and association with comics resembles [[Minecraft:Batman]], the character appears to be an anthropomorphic cat with ripped shorts instead of a human in a costume.

=== Dueling skeletons ===
{{Expand section|Rest of appearances}}
Throughout each of the issues, several characters are shown to be fans of a media franchise called Skeleton Duels. In this series, skeletons duel, during all of the seventeen known issues. [[Minecraft:Steph]] finds this formula monotonous, but [[Minecraft:Ethan]] is reluctant to question the status quo. Later, Evan is shown to be a big fan of the series, hanging a picture of it on his wall beside a [[Minecraft:wither skeleton]].

=== Free Comic Book Day ===
During the events of the story [[Minecraft:Changes]], a young girl named [[Minecraft:Penny]] discovers she has "{{MC}} powers." This is apparently a form of puberty, or at least similar to it, Penny remarking that her mother had told her to expect changes. In spite of the happenstance, she proceeds to go to [[Minecraft:Jackson Middle School|school]], and tries to search out her friend [[Minecraft:Phillip]]. While looking for him, several people are seen, including students and what appear to be teachers.

=== Raided villagers ===
During [[Minecraft:The Witch and the Pillager]], several [[Minecraft:villagers]] are depicted being victimized by [[Minecraft:Darnell]] and [[Minecraft:Denise the Witch|Denise]]. The story opens on an unprofessional villager working on a house while Denise intends to attack him with a [[Minecraft:potion of slowness]] or [[Minecraft:Potion of Weakness|weakness]], only for Darnell to show up and shoot him. He is promptly poisoned, but manages to escape while they bicker. Later, the two decide to engage in a raid on a walled village, just as three villagers partake in a conversation. One, named Jack, remarks that his son has been turned into a [[Minecraft:Zombie Villager|zombie]], which the person he speaks to relates with. 

Several days later, Denise tries to invade another village, and vents about the romantic tension between her and Darnell. A villager she had previously attacked gives her honest advice on the situation and says she should open up to her feelings, which she promptly kills him for, throwing a [[Minecraft:splash potion]] to his head while it burns.

== ''Heart of Cobblestone'' ==

=== Foreign professionals ===
In the short story [[Minecraft:Saved by the Bell]], [[Minecraft:Rochelle]] goes on a quest to find a new bell. To do this, she seeks out a [[Minecraft:weaponsmith]] in a foreign village, hoping to trade [[Minecraft:coal]] for [[Minecraft:emeralds]], but continually runs into issues across several. Unlike other media, these professionals are not villagers, but what appear to be humans; villagers still appear as background characters in other scenes. 

During the story, she first goes to a [[Minecraft:taiga]] village, meeting with what appears to be a [[Minecraft:nitwit]], wearing a green tunic, yellow poncho, and spiky black hair similar to [[Minecraft:Farmer Cobb]]. The second stop is a [[Minecraft:snowy plains]] village, with a villager wearing a bulky blue winter coat, yellow scarf, brown pants, and gray gloves. The third is a desert village, with a professional with tan skin, a muscle shirt, ragged pants, and a jacket tied around their waist. The final professional is from a savanna, with brown hair, an orange baseball cap, and a ragged brown jacket on a white shirt.
