Ender Pearl

The Ender Pearl is a new item in the 1.8 update and is sometimes dropped by Enderman upon death. All of the uses of the Ender Pearl are currently unknown. These pearls can be commonly found in bodies of water "naturally" as Endermen will occasionally walk into water and die there from water damage.
