Typo?

New Block?
That doesn't appear to be a new block, just obsidian towers.
 * Yeah I didn't get what they meant either. I think they were talking about the sky. So I reworded the image note. --HexZyle 02:55, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't mean to speculate here, but that really, really looks like Sand, Obsidian, and Bedrock. It seems a bit too soon to say they they are new blocks... Verhalthur (talk)(contribs) 03:06, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Obsidian, yes. The sky does look like pixelated bedrock. However, the sand block is obviously different. (assuming that notch never uses texture packs) It looks veiny and strangely lumpy, like some creepy alien bone from a sci-fi game. --HexZyle 04:43, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, and this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Red_link is why redlinks like that shouldn't be removed (i stuffed up the link to wikipedia in my edit summary) --HexZyle 04:45, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * ....It just looks like sand to me.... Electrk 05:38, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Looking at the brightened version of the image, the "sand" is definitely a new block. It matches up with the white, rough texture shown below the unbroken air portal block's texture in the terrain.png file. I won't bother to change that myself, as someone else will probably dispute it. ~Guest, 1:54 AM EST. 8 Oct.
 * Downloaded 1.9p3 terrain.png and confirmed this. This is definitely NOT sand --HexZyle 06:11, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I am wondering why it's obsidian, though? Perhaps it's just a place holder block for something else not yet added?MrLeonov 07:36, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I think the obsidian towers are probably there because this is ''the land of rare stuff", you knowSpartachilles 09:44, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with MrLeonov, its a filler block. Talk:Ender_Sand Check out what I typed out there.. at least thats my theory. --Throex 02:17, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you, throex. I could be wrong, not saying I'm right, but looking at the trivia and knowing a little how notch designs this game, I only suggested that the obsidiantowers we see were only placeholders because "endermen are aspiring builders" and notch limited them to moving certain blocks; they won't be able to pick up and place obsidian after 1.9 is released. MrLeonov 09:02, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

What are you guys talking about? it looks like someone took a picture of a pitch black sky with a digital camera so that the picture is finely pixelated. (accidental tongue twister) 173.89.246.213

Anyone notice this?
Notice how the "obsidian towers" have these corners on them and cut outs? Reference with arrows pointing at it: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/File:Untitled.png Now notice, the one of the left is not that questionable, could be nothing, but the one in the middle...those cuts in it look a little odd to me. Not like two block towers stacked next to each other. Its almost like the corner of each block was removed.. Could this be a new style of block? That is not just square but "plus symbol"? Does anyone else think the corners look a bit odd? They are too close for them to be stacked diagonal so that the corners would be touching to create that "missing corner". Is this confusing? I really think there is something there no one else has noticed just because they think they are diagonal.

What most of you will think pattern is from: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/File:Display.png If you look close the corners.. are nothing like the cobble stone setup.. now what do you think? am i crazy? --Throex 02:36, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Are you talking about this:
 * Cross-section of Tower on the Left


 * Cross-section of Tower in the middle


 * That's what I see --HexZyle 05:14, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The tower on the left, I can see how you see:


 * But the one in the middle, I tried to re-duplicate it in minecraft, this is what I got:
 * http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/File:D2.png
 * Now if you look at both images, I can see the resemblance in the two towers, but the one I created is the same layout you have shown above, but the corner pieces are still not similar, I tried capturing the shot from all angels to make sure it was not just the angle it showed it at. I still say there is something to it. :P --Throex 05:26, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I dunno. The screenshooter was standing on ground above the base of the Obsidian tower, and has a high resolution (not to mention unknown FOV settings) and that can lead to quite severe distortion --HexZyle 05:33, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty sure it's just:

The Ender Exists in Pre-release 3
When I was closing down my pre-release 3 home hosted server for my brother and I, i noticed it said "Saving Chunks" 3 times, instead of the usual 2. (it was originally only once, until the multiplayer nether was made available in 1.6 or 1.7 or whatever it was. Each "saving chunks" refers to a different map) I was curious, so I started the server again. Sure enough, the server gui reported:

[INFO] Starting minecraft server version Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3 [WARNING] **** NOT ENOUGH RAM! [WARNING] To start the server with more ram, launch it as "java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar" [INFO] Loading properties [INFO] Starting Minecraft server on *:25565 [INFO] Preparing level "MC9P3 Server" [INFO] Default game type: 0 [INFO] Preparing start region for level 0 [INFO] Preparing spawn area: 81% [INFO] Preparing start region for level 1 [INFO] Preparing spawn area: 20% [INFO] Preparing start region for level 2 [INFO] Preparing spawn area: 16% [INFO] Done (3996281460ns)! For help, type "help" or "?"

(Each start reigon is the spawn area in each map) --HexZyle 09:13, 10 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Dimension 1 is the sky dimension. I checked that from the code. Germanyboy 15:11, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Firstly, when you set nether=false the server properties, reigon 1 stops generating, therefore reigon 1 is the Nether. Secondly, reigon 1 has been generating since 1.6. If sky dimension was generated, there would have been 3 dimensions generating since 1.6, but there isn't there is only 2.




 * Thirdly, the sky dimension doesn't occur in the vanilla minecraft without mods. So go troll somewhere else. --HexZyle 15:29, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * In the game code, nether dimension is -1, normal world is 0, and sky dimension is 1, it's been like that way before "the ender". xPaw 15:32, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * That contradicts the fact that region 1 stops generating when nether=false. Perhaps the region code for the server and the coding in the class files are different? Or maybe there is a negative mixup there? Please explain. --HexZyle 15:54, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Lets see here. Before 1.6, there was just the overworld. We get region 0 in the server gui. Between 1.6 and 1.8, we get both region 0 and region 1. Nether becomes multiplayer, and the overworld still exists. Sky Dimension is added, but it's buried within the coding, and isn't official. The two most likely candidates for region 0 and 1 are the Overworld and the Nether. Now in 1.9p3, a third region occurs, region 2, just as notch starts talking about and exploring a new dimension, the Ender. Nothing has been heard about the sky dimension for quite some time now. It's pretty obvious from all this that the sky dimension is still inactive in the code, and the new region is the Ender. --HexZyle 15:59, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I meant that -1 is the nether, 0 the overworld and 1 the sky dimension. In server's code, the world in slot 1 is -1, and world in slot 2 is 1. Because of save-bug, the sky dimension is in same savefile as the overworld is, and the world is same in both dimensions. –The preceding unsigned comment was added by Germanyboy (Talk&#124;Contribs) Please sign your posts with
 * Well then that resolves it then. What the statement on the page is now is pretty accurate. Since the Sky Dimension is still something in the future, hasn't fully been added into the game yet, and hasn't been mentioned recently, it probably doesn't need mentioning in the trivia, since one can't reach it without mods. --HexZyle 19:45, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I have reason to believe that by using NBTedit on PR3 you can set your region, and that region 2 loads as empty, and makes Sky Dimension biome skyislands when you start generating chunks. Was the sky dimension updated somewhere from 1.7>now? Perhaps it's no longer hidden in the overworld, and the Ender is a forth dimension. It would makes sense, if the plan is to implement the sky dimension in 1.10 --gmip 58.106.67.247 13:40, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * An alternative would be that it's empty with sky dimension biome settings in PR3 as a placeholder (or a hint) for the Ender, and that in PR4 it will be the ender. --gmip 58.106.67.247 13:44, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm, this does seem rather plausable, as I have been spawned in the sky dimension just recently on my PR3 server. Mentioned here. I'll remove the trivia point, because it is no longer 100%. --HexZyle 13:56, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Turns out it did exist in pre-release 3, but it took the form of the Sky Dimension and appeared in the overworld. --HexZyle 23:30, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

The Ender Video?
Could I have a link to the video Notch made of The Ender? 70.246.60.105 04:18, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Here ☁ Shockman25 ☂ Talk ☁ 04:21, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Here's the link that Notch tweeted SableDnah 14:14, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Incorrect name
So there doesn't seem to be any reference to it at all, but Notch's video calls this dimension "the End", not "the Ender", and since he's made slight references to the End before, when talking about how he refuses to change the name of the Endermen, that name seems more likely. BurningDogFace 05:31, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * "Perhaps the new dimension will be called ender, and will be the home to the mysterious endermen and deadly enderdragons"
 * --cptqwashi
 * Notch said this was "100% Correct". That most likely includes the name. --HexZyle 05:42, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Not like notch hasn't changed his mind before ;)...  I suspect he was going to call it Ender, but (possibly because of the above mentioned 'slight references') has decided upon simply "The End".   This would make sence as the -er suffix is used to refer to seomeone that lives somewhere.  Southen-er - Northen-er  End-er...  Sable 12:31, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah but there still is no proof that that "The End" video is actually official. I mean, some people claim that Notch uploaded it on his twitter and then removed it (how you upload videos to twitter i have no idea) but without official references, we can never be sure. --HexZyle 12:57, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah, Notch tweeted a link to the video, the tweet was just this Youtube URL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehlpLRrwojo (on the new twitter website tweeting a Youtube URL will show the video within twitter - hence appearing as if its 'uploaded to twitter'). I replied to his (now deleted) tweet
 * The mojnotch youtube account appears to have been around for a while and has references to the whole "the manifesto.ogg on Oscilloscope" incident ;).  But you're right - with that original tweet of Notch's deleted we're missing on official link.  That said - the fact he deleted it is interesting in itself... SableDnah 14:10, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Ok, but the Youtube account is an official reference that mojang uses? Then that's ok then. --HexZyle 14:26, 11 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Digging in my internet history - I found the twitter shortened URL t.co/XiualTHP - twitter runs all URLs in the timestream through t.co for tracking, and this is the one notches post went through. Just an echo of his post that I found...
 * There's some debate as to whether mojnotch is owned by Notch but I think it was a troll trying to claim he made it yesterday just for the end vid. The user page shows recent activity dating back 3 months...  SableDnah 14:44, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * This twitter post from Notch: http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/124154266276470784 makes me think its THE END, not the ender.. -- Throex  '''TALK 16:11, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

wth?
Once you get in the end, how the hell you get back out? lol -- Throex  '''TALK 16:31, 13 October 2011 (UTC)


 * You don't. "The End" means just that, it's the end. Notch has been hinting that this is the "last level" of minecraft. --HexZyle 16:35, 13 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Makes sense I suppose, but a lot of people wont like it at all. lol -- Throex  '''TALK 16:42, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I DON'T LIKE IT AT ALL! Nah jokes. I just won't go there. It's as barren as the nether was when it was first released. --HexZyle 16:58, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Well anyway, IMO, this is my interpretation of the End. (jump to seventh paragraph if you don't want to read it all) --HexZyle 17:09, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Is it possible to make nether portal in The End?


 * GOOD QUESTION! Testing now. --HexZyle 17:45, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Nope.avi. The Portal doesn't activate when you ignite it. --HexZyle 17:46, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

How did endermen get out?Desacobose 23:24, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * THAT is an EXCELLENT question. As much as I like the symbolism, I don't like that you can't leave. Creative mode gets boring if you get curious, then stuck. But besides that, I noticed the End Portal frame blocks are made of White Stone, with some sort of green cap or something.  Maybe Ender Pearls and White Stone can be crafted together to create an exit portal (in a later update perhaps)? --King Starscream 02:18, 20 October 2011 (UTC)


 * In creative mode you can kill yourself to send yourself back to the Overworld by jumping off the bottom of the level --HexZyle 02:57, 20 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Uhh.... yeah starscream, and HOW exactly do you obtain white stone in the overworld?Reallitup2 04:18, 6 November 2011 (UTC)


 * He said "Exit Portal". As in, exit from INSIDE the End. --HexZyle 01:47, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

3 ways to get out of the End: Kill the Ender Dragon Jump off the map Use SPC and say useportal normal/nether. Easy as that. >:D

Finding a Portal
I have tested the eye of ender and found two strongholds with it. Both times, the eye started to sink into the ground at the location of a spiral staircase that did not connect to anything at the top and seemed to not have any rooms above it. It seems that this staircase could be an "entrance" of sorts to the stronghold, and is what the eye of ender will locate. Inside the stronghold, the eye would still float towards the staircase. When I did find a portal in the second stronghold, after throwing the eye of ender near it, it would still go in the direction of the spiral stairs. Conclusion, the eye of ender will try to locate the "entrance" to a stronghold, and not a portal frame. --DarkFlame588 19:53, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * THAT is what i was going to add. Seconded. I was going to add it last night but I was reading through the new edits and i forgot :S Thanks. It's been bugging me since the update. --HexZyle 20:55, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

The End Spawn Point
In my testing it appears that the obsidian platform is always at 0,72,0 ? Can anyone confirm this finding? SableDnah 21:56, 13 October 2011 (UTC)


 * The time I went in, this was correct. --DarkFlame588 21:24, 14 October 2011 (UTC)


 * For me I've spawned at 180,53,0

I never check coords, but every time i've went in i only spawned off the platform ONCE. 24.15.167.216 17:30, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

Leaving The End
I found a way to leave the End without dying. If you make a Nether Portal, you can go there, and leave to the Overworld with the same portal! That way, you don't lose all of your stuff. EDFan12345 13:19, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Do you mean "make" or "hack"? Cobalt32 14:23, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Or just kill the ender dragon 66.30.253.244 00:03, 12 January 2012 (UTC) charged creeper with TNT

Well, this is interesting
I actually noticed that when playing Minecraft that you can enter the End by just simply right-clicking a diamond sword. This means that you do not have to use a portal and find a stronghold, but this is probably considering by some but these could be argued to be idiots as it is included in the game by default, kind of like the glass towers above strongholds in the last pre-release. Although this will probably be removed as it seems a bit easy. Should this be added to the Wiki page? :) 60.231.64.35 23:19, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Add to trvia as debug testing --HexZyle 23:32, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
 * This doesn't seem to wok. Are there any necessary circumstances?--BTH 00:19, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * uh i heard you need 2 class files to make it happen. and BTW one is for the sword portal, the other spawns a dragon when you block with a golden sword--Gil2455526 00:34, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * You found this, http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/lav7p/19_prerelease_4_changelog/ which list two classes you add to your .jar file and it allows you to spawn a dragon with a gold sword (right click) and move to the end with a diamond sword (right click). Its not IN the game, its class files that you put in your self. -- Throex  '''TALK 01:48, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * So then because it's MODified class files then it's a MOD and doesn't belong on mainspace. Very interesting though. :D --HexZyle 03:42, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Obsidian Platform
I just noticed that the 5x5 platform that you spawn on in the end also removes all blocks 3 spaces above it when you travel there, making it a 5x4x5 square-ish thing. 108.52.26.139 00:39, 15 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Confirmed. Also, anything you place on the platform will be removed the next time you port in. Exitwound45 19:16, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

Trivia at the obsidian page: Floating islands need obsidian to fly
I saw a point at the trivia of obsidian, that notch wanted to make floating islands which need obsidian to fly. He said that he didn't liked the idea anymore. But now there is the end, which is actually a sky dimension(floating islands) with obsidian towers on top of it. Maybe he didn't discarded the idea after all. Should this be mentioned on one of the pages(Obsidian, The End or even both)?

Sorry for bad english, KazujaXYZ 17:44, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * It's only a piece of trivia for a feature Notch realised was a bit rediculous to implement, though it could be a reference. If you removed all the obsidian the island would still float, however. --HexZyle 18:51, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I know that it does float without obsidian :P . I just mean the towers could base on this idea.


 * So you could put "The Obsidian towers on the floating islands in The End may be a manifestation of the scrapped idea Notch once had for floating islands to require obsidian to hold in place" and follow that (and reword it) with a reference. --HexZyle 00:16, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Sigh.
Anyone else kinda feel this is a pointless addition to the game as it is currently? All it is at the minute is a second darker nether with even less point. Its really disheartening.--Neil2250 01:45, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
 * People complained when the Nether was first released (when it actually was released, not when it was in it's development stages, because people would have complained even more then) because of lack of content. How is this complaint any different? --HexZyle 05:22, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Its different because we already have a hell now. Plus there's only two blocks as oppose to three new of the nether when it was released.--Neil2250 14:07, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I do think that The End is empty at the moment, but that is why I'm just not going to go there until the official release. No point getting all grumpy about something that isn't even finished yet. I'm an artist and i really dislike it when people criticise a half finished artwork of mine. --HexZyle 01:46, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keeping the Enderdragon in mind, I picture the End as less of a "world" and more like a "final boss arena". That said, it could use a bit more incentive to go there, but I can forgive Notch for that; he's not even finished with it. Cobalt32 21:53, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I see this as a Final Boss Dimension, because in 1.9 a new achievement is The End., where you have to defeat an Enderdragon. Pretty much Notch's first idea, right?From Moi, Ajc_1254 15:59, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

FINAL BOSS AREA? MORE LIKE ONLY BOSS AREA.

The Hell?
Removed the farlands? "In later versions, the end was added and the farlands were removed." Who added this nonsense?
 * Idk, just delete because the end and the far lands don't have any relation. ☁ Shockman25 ☂ Talk ☁ 20:09, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Terry Pratchet reference?
In Terry Pratchet's series 'the discworld', there is a barren desert that Death takes you to after you die, it seems somewhat like that with the end as it is the 'final level' of minecraft and the last place that you ever go to.--Lirtsi 13:53, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

I doDesacobose 14:07, 17 October 2011 (UTC)


 * This dimension seems like a thousand things from many different books, games and movies. Doesn't mean we have to add them all. There is no connection, unless Mojang specifically says so --HexZyle 01:14, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

purgatory?
Does this remind anyone else of purgatory or the desert in discworld?Desacobose 14:02, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

I think it seems more like limbo. I'll just type the gist of it. In religon, limbo is where one goes if they have not been damnned nor repented. Limbo and Purgatory both require you go through "trial by fire" to reach heaven, but in Purgatory you have already been gaurenteed acceptance to heaven. Back to limbo, so let me get all my reasoning done.  1. In limbo, you can reach heaven or hell. In game representaion would be escaping(heaven) or dying(hell) in the End.  2. Limbo is described as more of an entity than a physical place. Represented by being a new dimension and not a thing on the Overworld.  3. Limbo exists on the edge of Hell (where it's not as likely to finish you off). The End Is dangerous, but not like the Nether, you can actually avoid pain here (not as likely to finish you off).  4. Being on the edge of Hell, it doesn't have the same make-up as it. Self-explainitory.  5. I think I read somewhere that it is pretty much all adjectives that mean: colorless, scary, and depressing. Again, self-explainitory.  6. This one, I re-call vaguely. Jesus resided in limbo before he rose to heaven. The Enderdragon could represent Jesus, and it's egg, his rebirth. Rocheste 21:17, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't really see what the Enderdragon has to do with Jesus; the Bible usually used the term "dragon" to refer to either dinosaurs (pre- and for a short time post-flood) or Satan, but never God or Jesus. Also, the Bible didn't say he went to purgatory when he died... frankly, it doesn't mention Purgatory or any related concept at all.


 * Since Notch made it clear he based the Nether off some hyperspace-like world from a book series and not Hell, it's probably more likely he meant the End to be just some sort of barren other dimension the Endermen came from, possibly based on a similar kind of world from a book or series. Cobalt32 23:04, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Moon
It not seems to you that the End is similar to the moon? And the end portal is similar, on a portal which Chell opened on the moon in a Portal 2?

No, floating chunks of pale rock with obsidian spires popping up randomly don't really resemble the moon that much, and no, the End Portal doesn't resemble Aperture portals in any way. Plus, they're one-way only. Cobalt32 21:50, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

A possible bug; opinions, please?
I was using Zombe's Mod Pack for the latest pre-release of minecraft and I had the weather mod activated. When I tried to strike an enderman in The End with lightning, the game crashed. I attempted it again when I didn't have as many endermen following me (the first time it was laggy because I had many, many endermen in pursuit of me), and the game crashed again. I am assuming it crashed each time I tried to do this in The End because weather does not exist there. If anyone can test this out for me, just to be sure it isn't just my computer, we could throw this in a 'bugs' section for the end page. For now, I am adding it to trivia to grab others attention and hopefully encouraging to test it out. Please tell me if anyone else encounters this bug when trying to summon lightning in The End.

A theory about The End
I belive that the end is the apocalypse of the world you're in. In the last years before the apocalypse, an unknown virus infected the mobs of the world, causing them to twist into endermen. And then a Red Dragon (Planned to appear in a later version) Succumbed to the desease, and attacked the very world, breaking it. Small strains of the virus continually happen in the normal world, making endermen. The stronghold was built to hide the end portal. I belive the end portal is actually a time portal, and the Eyes of Ender are attracted to it because of its destination: The end. The time portal is one way, it strands you at The End, because you then become a carrier of the evolved desease, and you cannot bring it back. The time portal is powered by the eyes, because the eyes contain some power of time travel, which is sometimes triggered when moving twoards the end portal.

-Thedball


 * While a nice story, it sounds way farfetched and beyond speculative to me. Honestly, time travel? What direct clues do you have to deduct that The End is a post apocalyptic world? Generally the term The End is used to describe a place which further away from the known living world than anything else, often housing strange and different beings, an often common theme in both science fiction novels and various games. In Notch's case he seems to use the name with a double purpose, also coining this area as the place where the endgame content (the Enderdragon) occurs and it may well be derived from the name Enderman after the Farlands - Farlander discussion where Notch joked he should rename the Farlands to The End. I'm sure The End is a far away and almost alien or otherworldly place, but I doubt it's a time rift. --Saratje 18:51, 29 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Love the story, and the idea seems plausable. It makes some sence as to why you cant leave.

--Cdash 16:19, 31 October 2011 (UTC)cdash


 * Although the story is somewhat interesting, I don't think it's plausible at all. Nothing about Endermen would lead me to believe they're the result of a viral infection, especially considering they can teleport, which a virus cannot make you do. Just having them be aliens from another dimension would probably make more sense, as well as give a possible explanation for their teleportation abilities. As for not being able to leave the End, I blame incompleteness. I have a theory that destroying the Enderdragon may provide you with a means of leaving the end, whether it be automatic ejection a set time after slaying it, or possibly making use of whatever item it drops to make some means of escape, though it might still have uses in the other worlds. Cobalt32 16:47, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Not a bad theory. Even though it might not be plausible, i still think its a good origin story.Reallitup2 04:12, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

...Interesting. A nice story, and perhaps the End is a post-apocalyptic world, although this virus thing is a little over-the-top. You can leave the End, but if you couldn't, how would the virus and/or Endermen get to the 'present'? The Enderdragon, even with extra power, also couldn't of smashed the world to pieces floating about single-handedly and Endermen are too thick to realise the world is flat (XD say that to someone who has no clue what Minecraft is to see their reaction) in the first place, let alone help bring along a doomsday. Cool theory though, try making a fanfic or something from it. -I'mnottellingyouwhoIam

It's bit late, but if I could add some detail into your theory, It could be that virus in End actually originated from Overworld Enderman. and End Portal bring End virus into Overworld, and it infected mobs, mobs become Enderman, and it become End virus again. creating Bootstrap Paradox. About how did virus and enderman got teleported to Overworld (or should I say, 'Our Time') is probably that there was pre-made portal somewhere in this overworld, that Steve? did not found. and as well as in End. So yeah, I liked your idea! Kevin J Rattman 12:00, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

A possible end of The End
I think that when an Enderdragon is defeated in the End, it should instantly remove all players from the end, and place them back in the overworld, preferably in a treasure-filled room. That way you could "quest" to the End to slay an Enderdragon, and not have to die to leave. this would also be pretty cool since you could rig a trap in multiplayer to "banish" players to the End, where their only hope of redemption could be slaying the Enderdragon. that would be pretty cool, especially if players have to pool resources and do things like grow trees to get the weapons to fight. -Archangel

No feature requests please. FelixGriffin 00:29, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

A treasure filled room? Please consider *how* you'd actually do that without people just digging into one by accident and stealing all the goodies. Before you suggest something, No, making them incapable of being destroyed by a person who hasnt defeated the dragon is bad too, since miners may make a strip-mine with a bunch of chests randomly floating in the air. This'd be more feasable if the user was spawned in a dungeon that still has 7 or below light level in all of it. It'd make for a nice after-battle and you'd still get a reward. Whatever the case, i think the enderdragon should be the one who just drops the items for the one who killed it, because if someone is killing it and one person snatches all the items, it'd be really unfair.--192.168.167.101 12:04, 8 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Personally, I think it should just return them to their Overworld spawn point (whether it be a bed or their original spawn). Cobalt32 04:07, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Instead of an (overworldly) treasure room, a possible update for the End could be that the portal warps you hundreds of thousands of meters away from the main End island and brings you to a mob-free treasure palace with a portal that warps you to your bed/spawnpoint. It could even let you (upon right-clicking your bed, even if it's newly moved) go to the palace. The palace could be made of a brick-like block made of End Stone. That would be cool. 66.207.6.159 00:40, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

True, can a mod please fix that and put it all in a normal post?

Hang on, I'm confused...
So...when you kill the Enderdragon, the game just ends? What happens if you try to load your world after you do that? Do you not go back to The Overworld? Are you still stuck in The End? That doesn't make sense...I've played lots of games where you can beat it and then go back and keep playing the world even though you've technically "beaten" the game...If this was like THAT, I'd like it, but if it's NOT, then that totally defeats the purpose of Minecraft: to explore, mine, build, and develop your own world infinitely. Anyone agree?Wandergirl108 05:40, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

If I read correctly, you get sent back to the Overworld, but credits play while in transit. Cobalt32 05:59, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, see, that's what I'd think too, except for the use of the word "except" when talking about how the portal left behind by the Enderdragon worked, AND the fact that there's still no way to bring End Stone back to The Overworld, AND the repeated references to The End literally being THE END. And that, I say, is just plain wrong. The greatest thing about Minecraft is that it HAS no end, am I right? Wandergirl108 06:54, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Good thing you do get to keep everything when the Enderdragon's exit portal sends you home. Cobalt32 17:40, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

You just have to kill the dragon, then drop in the portal, watch the credits (Or hit escape), then you spawn back at your bed in the Overworld.

Capitalization
Just wondering: It seems generally agreed upon that we should capitalize "End," but should we also capitalize "The"? The article itself features both "The End" and "the End." Please excuse my pedantry. Euridicus 09:37, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

I think that we should capitalize the too.

I get that, too. It's really bugging me, but I have a theory. It might be an observation area, built by Endermen to observe you while you battle the Enderdragon. As you return to the Overworld, you read the researcher Endermen's thoughts, as evidenced by the end poem. *digifreek*
 * Well why don't you no-clip up there and find out?
 * Because it vanishes when you try to approach it. I have a theory about that, too. Cloaking devices. It's likely just a glitch, but I like to think it's the observation area. *digifreek*

hey that might be the little station you hear the thoughts from in the credits like digifreek said. --A Big Mojang Lover 20:16, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

- I did some exploring on my recent (and first) dragon kill. I had left and come back to recover the egg and decided to look about for this platform. Short of it being underneath the floating island (and thus unviewable), it was not to be found. A quick walk through creative mode and another dragon later, I did another search, making sure I had destroyed all the ender crystals before killing it (in case that activated some sort of trigger). I ruled out once again that it was within anything short of far view distance from the portal. I even played with the egg some (including getting it to sit on the portal frames). I'm convinced it was a happy egg, yet no alien platform was present. Finally, I dropped myself down to the bottom of the void to get one last check in from below, the only remaining angle I could see it from; again, nothing in the slightest.

It is this players opinion that either a) there is some very nebulous condition that needs to be met that I don't know of, or more likely b) It's a fake and/or a glitch, most likely involving portal frames. I'm rather convinced it's the latter, it looks a bit too similar to the frames (in color AND shape of the portal itself) for me to think otherwise. -- GriffinVarro, 22:11, 5 December 2011 (Central)

I get the same thing. I tried going out to it on creative, but it disappears and I just end up getting lost in the void. I made a second world on creative and killed the dragon and such and it showed up again. I agree with that it's a glitch, because it will also show the thing on other blocks. --- LetterB

Could you make a video of you going to the end killing the dragon and seeing the craft thing?Biopuppy 20:04, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

When I first found this I could not find any other mention of it, then forgot about it. But a while ago I made an imgur album demonstrating it's properties of moving around and disappearing. http://imgur.com/a/oNN5E#10 It seems to appear in a location relative to the exit portal, thus requires defeating the dragon. Your elevation, direction, and x/z location all affect it's visibility. Moving closer to it makes it disappear, moving down makes it move up, and moving up makes it move down. I've dubbed it "End Mirage" due to it's property of passing through mobs and blocks. Ebkrem 06:23, 29 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello everyone. I was on my own server and the end bugged and I had many dragons spawn. I had worldedit enabled for the server but apart from that I think everything was normal.Because I had that many dragons, it was difficult to kill one with a sword or bow/arrow as I kept losing it. I came up with the idea to blow them up with dynamite. So I set the brush to spawn large blocks of TNT. It turns out that when the dragon flies through TNT, it is set off. I did this numerous times, with the server becoming a bit laggy and buggy. I had phantom explosions and flashing TNT's lying around and other graphical bugs. I did also notice several (probably about 5-6) of these weird objects out in the distance. I flew towards them but they vanished. I assumed it was something to do with all the TNT I set off, but it may have something to do with you killing the dragon. Maybe the portal that is created when you kill the dragon has something to do with it? Like a distorted graphical bug happens under certain conditions? It seems a similar shape to the portal but I dunno.

TL:DR I had a multiple dragons bug. I blew them up and saw these objects. Might have something to do with killing the dragons. (Still TL:DR?) Dragon exploded, got bug, lol.--2.26.64.225 18:38, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

It's kind of obvious in my oppinion. It looks exactly like the Portal texture. It's probably just a bug that makes a second portal seem to appear, but moves around like a Mirage, as Ebkrem said. 108.34.195.80 14:19, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

This could be a problem...
Does your spawn point in the End depend on your world seed? Because I made a copy of my world in Creative mode and found an End Portal but it spawned me in the middle of space with no legitimate means of reaching the mainland. Will the spawn be different every time, or am I just hosed? Cobalt32 03:45, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Herobrine
Shouldn't it be noted that the end of "The end poem" uses the same wording as one of the herobrine "origin" stories?

maybe herobrine ascended it's conscience to that is near godlike forms, and "transformed" into the enderdragon. (kinda far fetched, but would explain slightly the "removed herobrine" change the second time it is shown)

Correction good sir, herobrine is but a joke by notch. you see, in the begining notch planned for very strange mobs to be added to the game, this was during the alpha period i believe, one was the human. He put it in but decided not to use it. the removed herobrine notices were a gag, symbolizing the removal of some parts of the human mob program, the rest after the 1.8 update (i think) were jokes. although he did implement herobrine into the game to freak out the players and have a laugh.

 * Note: the "wake up" story hidden in the programming of the 2nd herobrine hoax (only the first 2 are considered "canon") is an unrelated story from the creepypasta website (the same one Slenderman is from, which is what both Endermen and Herobrine are homages to). And yes, it's true that Herobrine doesn't exist, he's fan-fiction made in an attempt to troll youtubers. The original videos used a retextured door with a flat herobrine picture on it. Making sure to only look at the door for a second then running as if the hounds of hell were on their heels is how they got such a silly trick to work. If you feel like fighting a fake herobrine you can use commands to summon a zombie wearing a herobrine head (Steve, Herobrine, and the Zombies all dress alike, with their faces and skin color being the only visual difference). Make sure to either equip him devestatingly well or use attribute modifiers to make his health 100 (50 hearts). Or both. WildBluntHickok (talk) 00:47, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

Nether Portals in The End
In the beggining of the article, it says that Nether portals will not activate in the end, however in the trivia section it says you can. What the hell? So, is it possible to make them in that dimension? Or maybe not?

oh no it's possible but you have to use inventory hacks or the smp /give command to get a nether portal, so it can work just not legitimately. -riothegod

False information?
Under trivia, it says that nether portals can be activated, but I just tested that and it doesn't work.

it means that you can do it if you hack your inventory-riothegod

EXP?
I have this problem when I exit the End. After beating the Ender Dragon, I managed to collect enough EXP to get from lvl. 0 all the way to 135. But then I entered the portal, let the poem play, but skipped the actual credits. When I respawned, I had absolutely no EXP left. This now happens every time I exit the End; no EXP whenever I return to the Overworld. Is this normal? Using 1.9 prerelease 6, by the way.

As of 1.0 RC1, this bug was fixed. try updating to 1.0.0 or using a release candidate. cheers, portaleboy on minecraft. 76.182.205.29 16:46, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

Interesting(?) Speculation.
It says at the end of the End Poem to wake up. While this may not make much sense if you aren't thinking about it much, you can realize that it might mean the The End is all a dream. Perhaps it's the whole Dry in dreams, die in real life concept. Also, consider that there is lava underneath of the End Portal. Perhaps spawning back at your house with all of your gear is a one-time blessing for conquering a powerful nightmare of yours? Once again, this is just speculation, but it might make sense.
 * ...maybe, but there's still a few things wrong with this theory: 1) at what point between jumping into the portal and waking up back home did the player start dreaming? 2) If the player had been dreaming already before entering the End, why is the "real" world identical to the one in his dream in every way, but still has evidence of the "dream" being reality, in the form of boosted levels and End Stone or Ender Pearls in their inventory?

Covered. 1) It's a portal to your spawn point. 2) While the player slept, his/her boosted level occur because, when in dreams in real life, your brain is working as you dream and you improve at things because your brain goes "Oooh, maybe if I do this...", and the items are a side effect of the travel. -Covereditallagain


 * I suppose the concept of the player being in some sort of dream-like trance that allows him to hear the speakers of the End Poem while in transit from the End to the real world could make slightly more sense, and the whole "time is compressed in dreams" thing, like on Inception, might explain why it takes so dang long. Cobalt32 23:59, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Perhaps the ender people and steve are co-dependent and when Steve dived into lava the ender people teleported him to the end and made him kill the dragon, and then as a returned him to the real world to live so that the ender people could live again?

But Steve doesn't dive into lava; he dives into a portal. Also, I kinda doubt the Endermen intended Steve to enter the End and kill the Enderdragon since Steve had to have killed several Endermen to obtain the Ender Pearls necessary to unlock the End Portal. Cobalt32 18:27, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

Maybe WHOLE Minecraft is a dream... "wake up" may mean many things then... anybody have a clue?

The End Ideas
Look I'm 12 and think I have a pretty good idea of what the poem means. First of all it felt like it was two endermen talking because they had one of the most prominent role in the game...protect the enderdragon. They basically breed in the end. Secondly the poem say death had just been an inconvenience...maybe the endermen knew that this was a dream and killed you to protect you from the truth..everything is a dream. Not only is Steve? in a dream but life itself is a dream. A game is a short dream(He has not yet reached the highest level,that he must achieve in the long dream of life..not the short dream of a game) and life is a long dream and when you die the truth is revealed. At the end of the poem it even breaks the fourth wall to tell you,you are the player. Wake up. Well that's my idea tell me what you think.ViralGameOver 00:20, 28 March 2012 (UTC)Brett

Can you please stop confusing me?! 24.15.167.216 23:17, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

good but that wasn't all true. i think that the 2 endermen were talking to you. but they did love the player. ever noticed they never attacked unprovoked. also i don't think they were born to protect the enderdragon, but were an alien species ruled under the tyranny of the enderdragon, ruled under his spell which would take a 1m years to fade off. which is why they attacked, the enderdragon made them, but they know secret's that is beyond your capability of understanding-riothegod

ok guys i got to get this out of the way once and for all k so their are 3 ways to get out of the end 1] kill the ender dragon and go to the portal 2] die 3] push the esc key ok happy now Now you cant build off of the main island in the end anymore in 12w23b. TWEET JEB FOR A VETO! This will ruin expansion of the island and xp/enderpearl farms.

I think it's two endermen talking to you. Good point with the fact that they're neutral and only attack when provoked. If they could, they would not attack you at all, but they are ruled by a tyrant called the Ender Dragon, who tells them to attack you as much as possible 'cause he hates Players. But then you killed him, and as you were leaving, they had to tell you some things, but the honor the dead, so they still attack when you "see" them again/attack them, and they wouldn't attack you because they love you, but are provoked by your crosshair because they fear your sight and fear that if you see them, you will try to kill them.(Except in Creative. They say "This character is just going to have fun in Creative Mode, so we don't fear their line of sight.") I agree with riothegod in many ways, except for the spell part. But good theory. ~FwenchFwies15

Screwed-up Speculation
Uh... on the End Poem page, it says that "The speakers of the poem are thought by some to be creeper and zombie talking,(see the talk page on The End for discussion.)" However, I just looked and no mention of a creeper and zombie talking is here. I've only seen people think it to be two endermen, not really anything else. So can someone fix that?


 * Weird. Why would anyone assume the speakers were creature types they had already seen? They're clearly extra-dimensional beings, and clearly more intelligent than us (which endermen aren't). I'm pretty sure we're not intended to know more than we already do about the end text. Poem? What a silly thing to call a conversaion!

Randomly Generated?
Is The End randomly generated like the other dimensions? Because they all look the same.
 * Yes it is. The game just limits the amount of terrain generated in the End for some reason. Some seeds will generate multiple islands off to the side, others will give you just one. It's always finite though. 71.7.90.185 22:31, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Creepers 'n Crystals
On the wiki, I read under "bugs" in an article that, if a creeper is spawned in The End and blows up an Ender Crystal, it would crash Minecraft. When I tested this myself, Minecraft didn't even lag, let alone crash. Anyone else noticing this?

Spawning/Portal
This mostly concerns the information in "Travelling to the End".

In 1.4.2, I consistently spawn into the end at 100, 49, 0 (on the center of the obsidian platform).

Also, I noticed that you cannot create an end portal in the end.

Finally, the section says a nether portal (id 90) will teleport you from the end to the overworld. I consistently get teleported to the Nether, without any sort of corresponding portal (often resulting in getting stuck in blocks or spawning in or falling into lava). It also seems to graphically glitch out and the entire screen is just a reddish nether fog, no blocks or anything, and I have to save and quit, and then reload to see where I am (again, often in the middle of a block)

Sky box?
I didnt read this entire page to see if anyone else had mentioned this, but when messing with a texture pack, i made the sky in the end where instead of it just blending together with the static sort of look, it has an actual image. what i saw was the sky is in a box shape, not just a sphere as it appears

'Traveling to the End' section
There has been excessive edit warring over the wording in the first paragraph in this section, whether "at most" or "at least" 12 eyes of ender are needed. On one hand, each portal frame block has a 10% chance of already containing an eye, so it's possible to activate the portal with fewer than 12. On the other hand, each eye has a 20% chance of breaking when used to locate a stronghold, so it's easily possible to need more than 12 to find and activate a portal. Since neither "at most" or "at least" is necessarily correct, neither term should be used. I've changed it to "about 12" as a compromise, though people are welcome to edit it if there's a better way to phrase things. -- Orthotope 08:56, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Major ender man problem--71.235.92.97 00:41, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
--71.235.92.97 00:41, 25 June 2013 (UTC)I have a question and do not know where to post it so I will just post it here i am not trying to mess up your wiki but i can not find out where to post it.Can there be a ender man who controls mobs because in my game there is 1 ender man who will appear seem to point at creepers, zombies, skeletons, and other ender man and then point at me as if telling them to attack me. He has even broke all of my windows about 10 times in a attemp to get me. The main problem is whenever I go to even look at him he attacks me once then teleports away so I can not kill. Could it have to do because I buit my house almost on top of the stronghold( I have not found the accrual area but the ender eyes point to somewhere right under my feet but. Can not find it because the cave leading to it is full of mobs that seem to be organized by attacking in a group of at leat3 to 10 always including a creeper and skeleton)?--71.235.92.97 00:41, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

I doubt an enderman 'pointing' at mobs is even possible, let alone likely. You are probably seeing more than one enderman, which are obviously not pointing. It's not in their animation to point, therefore they can't. Also, endermen cannot break windows. But, mobs attacking is entirely normal. You don't have to provoke them at all, hostile mobs will track you down and try to kill you, it's part of survival mode (try NOT to look into the enderman's eyes...). About the stronghold, your house MAY or may NOT be above a stronghold. How many eyes of ender have you used? They normally take a lot to actually lead you to a stronghold, considering the maximum in an infinite world is three. And yes, caves full of mobs is extremely likely. Again, hostile mobs with track you down and kill you. I hope I helped, Happy Minecrafting! 174.50.237.141 04:37, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Assuming he's not just trolling us (which is what it sounds like) and assuming he's on multiplayer it could be another player disguised as an enderman (due to a mod) trolling him. WildBluntHickok (talk) 00:32, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

The end 'planet' has no gravity.
I just noticed that The End actually has no gravity. You just fall towards the void instead of getting pulled back into the island. Dafuq, the void has gravity.

This means that it's wrong to call it a planet from outer space due to lack of stars, no gravity, etc.

It is probably more of another dimension rather than a floating asteroid in space. 112.206.44.203 15:00, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

A floating asteroid in space (at least one that size) wouldn't have enough gravity to be noticable. Your own body has gravity (which allows microscopic sized stuff to treat you like a planet) but it's a negligible amount to creatures our size. If 2 astronauts were floating in space you wouldn't expect astronaut 1's body gravity to be pulling astronaut 2 towards him. It's too small a gravity field for too big a target. Same deal with an asteroid that size compared to Steve. Of course real space physics also wouldn't expect the void to have gravity either. Instead, jumping should allow you to escape the asteroid and keep going up. The fact that you fall downwards suggests you're still within the gravity well of a planet, perhaps high above in orbit. However the fact that you're in another dimension explains away any inconsistencies. Just say "physics is different in this dimension" and stop worrying about it.

Please note this is a Dimension in most ways, and (DnD/Pf logic incoming) It could have directional gravity, and anyone too dumb or not expecting it can't alter 'down' at all. Down is where their feet are, nothing else to the player. To further this idea consider the following:
 * The Nether is Hell in all reasoning, regardless of beliefs of others religiously or otherwise, it is the underworld.
 * Skyland or however it was going to be called would have been an equivalent to Heaven, Nirvana, Etc. Etc.
 * Logic states this is something similar to limbo, the slip, Etc. Etc.
 * Logic means nothing in places mortals go when they die, in theory, therefore if you fall 'down', you along the Y Axis, going down.
 * Creative could be when the player reaches the 'highest level' as stated in the poem, prehaps implying Creative is Godlike and then you can alter your down, allowing gravity of sorts for your beloved End Isle via flight. Purple Spy (talk) 23:41, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

end_sky.png? What is this?
I found a file named end_sky.png in the environment texture folder. Does anyone know what this is? Goldenguy880 75.76.135.138 23:45, 6 August 2013 (UTC)


 * It's the texture for the sky in the End. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 00:53, 7 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Okay, thanks. I hadn't been to The End, but I thought everything there was black... Goldenguy880 75.76.135.138 14:06, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Strange noise
When I was building a castle far from the main island, I heard a very strange noise. It started out sounding ender-like, then it just sounded like a machine gun and stopped. Anyone know what this was? 192.168.11.14 20:33, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Can you give some coordinates and version?Purple Spy (talk) 13:57, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

End Isle questions:

 * I've been curious just how large/small the end is at it's greatest extents in various seeds, however I don't ever have the time to just start surfing game seeds starting at good ol 000001, you know? If someone would be wiling to do this, or even check out the map generation for the isle, that would be greatly appreciated.
 * Furthermore, if someone could locate where the static effect is located in the game files so i can play with it until it breaks, that also would be useful.
 * Lastly, if someone could investigate an issue with the aforementioned static effect and invisible endermen being viewed at a distance and confirm if they become gray-er and visible at distance (my estimate: ~25 meters/blocks) regardless of the invisible status, eyes ignored. They become silhouettes it seems, and is quite interesting in my opinion. If someone could confirm this and even test with other mobs that would be appreciated.

Redirects
Shouldn't The End? and The End. redirect to Achievements, and then place Redirect there? Since in most cases the addition of a punctuation would only be done if searching for the achievements. --KnightMiner  (t 03:11, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
