Minecraft:Creeper Head

Template:Infobox block A creeper head is the Minecraft:head of a Minecraft:creeper in the form of a Minecraft:block. It can only be obtained by killing a creeper using a different Minecraft:charged creeper's Minecraft:explosion.

Obtaining

Breaking

No tool can accelerate the breaking process of creeper head.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Template:Breaking row Creeper head drops itself when it's destroyed. When destroyed by an Minecraft:explosion, the creeper head always drops as an item.

Mob loot

Creeper heads are always dropped by a Minecraft:creeper if it dies due to a Minecraft:charged creeper's explosion. Template:IN, if multiple mobs are killed by the same charged creeper, all of them drop their heads, however Template:In only one mob selected at random drops its head.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Template:Drop sources

Usage

Decoration

Creeper heads can be oriented in 16 different directions on top of a block, and 4 directions on the sides of blocks, similar to Minecraft:signs. They can be placed on top of, or beside each other by shift clicking.

Wearing

The player can wear creeper heads, similarly to Minecraft:pumpkins or helmets. This overlays the second layer of the player's Minecraft:skin.

Disguise

Wearing a creeper head reduces the detection range for Minecraft:creepers to 50% of the normal range. This is similar to (and stacks with) the reductions in detection range from Minecraft:sneaking and from the Minecraft:Invisibility status effect.

Template:IN, wearing a creeper head makes the player invisible to other players on a locator Minecraft:map.

Dispensers

A Minecraft:dispenser can equip a creeper head on a player, mob, or armor stand with an empty helmet slot, within the block the dispenser is facing.

Piston interactivity

Creeper head is destroyed when the Minecraft:piston tries to push it. It can't be pulled by the Minecraft:sticky piston.

Enchantments

Creeper heads can receive the following enchantments, but only through an Minecraft:anvil.

Name	Max level	Method
Minecraft:Curse of Binding	I	Template:BlockLink
Minecraft:Curse of Vanishing	I	Template:BlockLink

Note blocks

Placing a creeper head above a Minecraft:note block causes the note block to play the Minecraft:creeper's Template:Cd (hissing) sound when activated. This is unlike other mob heads, as creepers don't make Template:Cd sounds.

The block below the note block does not affect the mob sound it creates.
