Callum Ellis – Ep 41: The Chilling Tale of Entity Zero | Minecraft Spooky Stories

Thank you welcome to the Minecraft spooky Stories podcast and this is the first episode of the podcast I’m going to try to release weekly for this podcast I’m aiming towards releasing an episode every Wednesday so make sure to stay tuned for that but the first episode is on entity zero

Most of the Creepypastas on this podcast come from the Minecraft creepy Blaster Wiki and I will credit the authors when I can enjoy the chilling tale event 2d0 Many know of the infamous Minecraft Entity 303 an old silver Herobrine wannabe many also know that Entity 303 is pure and utter lies of course this does not leave the world of Minecraft free for all such Terrors all sunshine and rainbows no in the creation of Minecraft an

Entity much worse than a conceivable came to be and I know the story because my father worked at Mojang around the time Minecraft Structure was just being created 2010 indiv INF and Alpha talks going around that small staff emojing where including a major enemy in Minecraft worse than spiders worse than

Creepers something that would truly challenge the player or terrify them something human-like but in The Uncanny Valley this is where the project code named Annihilation came to be Annihilation itself started as a few useless zeros hidden the code of early Minecraft versions both as an Easter egg

And as a future reference for where the developers would write code for the entity work on Annihilation began mid-bait on Minecraft where future Speed game pumping into the game the skin for the entity was procedurally generated much like a Minecraft world using grayscale colors and shades of red

The skin that came out this computation looked nothing like a human it was pasted onto the state model at first The Entity was given the not so terrifying AI of a zombie but over time Mojang workers adopted the zombie AI in something much more like the Enderman AI

We see today not terrifying but incredibly unnerving The Entity was being distributed behind the scenes in Minecraft versions now but of course was not able to respond using any stock Game feature spawn X won’t exist until after beta and release 1.0 the only way the entity could spawn was

If exactly eight zeros were entered us to seed Annihilation could only be spawned at a specific coordinate in this zero world even I did not discover what the coordinate was as beta progressed and the smudging began to write out the official story of Minecraft as it would

Be in 1.0 the staff walked the code of annihilation entirely while working on features such as the end and the dragon that inhabits it saving the entity for a future Post Release update the main developer of annihilation my father noticed that the complex Java code of annihilation had referred to just zeros

In its place yet The Entity would still spawn in a zero world as its coordinate as a 10 in a test environment Annihilation was left almost abandoned following the release of Minecraft where Mojang took a little break from Minecraft for themselves knowing their game had finally reached

Its moment however in a rushed release Minecraft as at Minecon 2011 known in the developing team found the bug in the code that allowed Annihilation to merge itself into the main branch of Minecraft’s code giving it giving it access to every bit in bite of the game upon returned to the desktop Mojang’s

Office the microbe team knows that the code of Minecraft which was a specific number set at release I grown exponentially in their absence my father took a peek at the code he had written and noticed Annihilation had completely overhauled its code even extending it to using Minecraft’s Pursuit generation

Engine incoming bits from other a is good when we tried to edit this code it would immediately revert to zeros and cause an error in the environment before going back to Java code once again there is no one to blame for annihilation going out their hands mojing office had been locked with the

Empty room before Minecon my father was commanded to cease work on Annihilation until further notice only attempting to find ways to remove its code from the game ojin can afford to release versions of Minecraft with annihilation’s unplanned to release so Jeb took a few steps to at least

Relax the code of annihilation so that I wouldn’t run in a Minecraft environment to the Mojang staff’s relief they were able to release Minecraft 1.1 the update that added spawn eggs without any code for an Annihilation spawn egg furthering the retention of annihilation from the public one night however Notch himself

Discovered the lie that would cause my father to lose his job according to my father nihilation had plugged himself into my father’s Mojang user and added the code for its name changing it to zeros making it look like he was the one that’s making it look I

Accused to want to attempt to bring Annihilation back Notch would not take any lies and fired my father removing him from the Mojang staff I had become an avid player of the game My Father contributed to excited for whenever he would come home to play with

Me or tell stories about what goes on at the Mojang office however the day he got fired he came home went to his room and slammed the door shut no matter how much I believed it for him to come out I felt like he was too humiliated to even look

At his son’s face on April 30th 2012 a user whose name is still unknown posted about heroine like entity on the micro forms the opposed went like this I created a new Minecraft world on version 1.2.5 on the peaceful difficulty intending to immerse myself in the serenity of a Minecraft world void of

The fears of deadly creatures spawning into the world I found myself on an entirely flat chunk of grass surrounded by trunks of cliffs and Hills thinking this would make an interesting moment on his Siege showcase I hit F3 to view seed only to discover it was 1-0

I record this fact anyway on notepad along with my system time at the war of creation midnight April 30th 2012. Minecraft uses the system time for its World Generation algorithm if no seed is manually inputted there are convenient steps on a cliff trunk facing me which I climbed up to

The plateau above as soon as my head passed along the edge of the terrain I noticed a great figures printing a superhuman speeds away from me just catching a glimpse of it thinking it was a figment of my imagination I continued fourth my next outing of the figure will be

Much later inside the game repaired to venture back down to my mind in Pursuit Of Diamonds while laying up the game had been crashing to zero FPS and upon viewing the F3 menu zero milibits RAM usage ever solved which I thought was due to background processes on my

Computer which would subside soon enough even with that logical answer I became nervous my reflexes are ready to snap at any button in front of me if something were to happen and just as expected I stopped my player’s head towards my mind to find all torches missing and the entity

Fading out at the bottom of the diagonal Cavern I hit the print screen fast enough to capture the only evidence I have of its existence look at it and look at it closely my world began to exhibit quite strange behavior my strip mines at the bottom of

The diagonal diagonal mine I sent would eventually be begin crossing the same lava Cavern over and over again now how far horizontally mined some same ores and everything I’ll begin experiencing constant crashes with the crash logs being entirely zeros no help obviously I keep pushing my Minecraft so allocated

To Ram up I still get huge relax bikes and RAM brushes another interesting into the zero sighting was claimed later on this time under the circumstances of manga feeds the Beast world and the entity actually interacting with the modded parts I have reached the late game in my feed

The beast world with a mass fabricator printing out valuables in absurd quantities a full set of quantum armor but still no completion of the game since this world creation only a few weeks ago nothing of the ordinary has occurred that’s been probably the first two weeks to the world’s existence

Depleting a sizable volume of the area of its natural resources to jumpstart whatever Endeavors I’ll be I would perform falling now I know Herobrine sightings or anything happened even during those long low nights smiling away in deep caves the following weeks with Star Wars my attempts at comprehending what aspect of

Feed the Beast to start with first which ended up being industrial craft 2. if we’re using the freedom on ic2 accomplishments to Branch out to other areas in expanded base cells nurturing up to this point everything seemed normal until the ram crashes would begin no crashes of the game just a RAM usage

Suddenly dropping the zero average so often I originally made no connections of this to anything Supernatural or paranormal or something thinking it was just the many machines and characters working away it might be seen slowing it down however in an attempt to view the cause of this in the log files although it

Followed the timestamp would be a string of zeros no indication of the source of the problem whatsoever I noticed that the output per day of my mass fabricator began to decrease too spam a high voltage solar farm being unchanged and protected from all outside fret upon further inspection and discovered that

Someone had detached many glass fiber cables rendering half the solar panels useless no mob or in-game feature can cause the cables to disappear things only became stranger when I returned to the mines after a very long time to collect resources to replace the cabling and four more advanced technology

All straight mind size 4 went through nothing before began passing through the same cave over and over again upon extending them I could even swear that I saw a gray transparent figure darting past the corners my vision at times the Kirby is experience in this exploration when was when I mined

Through it when it was when I mined a tunnel straight to an empty chunk except for a bedroom layer at y0 returning to the surface at night and coming back to my base I caught the gray figure again next to my mouse fabricator before I modify the facing of multiple

Machines with a bare hand causing the entire blast space to blow up due to high voltage difficulties I saw I survived the explosion however still cursed the entire time in the process of rebuilding the technological Empire I’d established I’ll continue to spot my machines modifying themselves as well as the even

Stranger occurrence of mobs in their AI completely freezing causing them to face North and cease to interact with the environment even if I punched a hostile one entrances to my mind close themselves off with obsidian seemingly placed by someone every time I wasn’t keeping an

Eye on a certain aspect of my world it changed or completely disappeared Thank you guys for listening this has been the first episode of Minecraft spooky stories make sure to tell your friends about the podcast and to leave a 5 star review I will see you guys inside the next episode
