Why are blaze spawners in the Nether Fortress? Why do blazes have no body and just skull and rods? What are the rods? Feel free to chip in.

The were cursed to guard the nether fortresses from raiders, like the piglins. They also are made of the flaming bones of their enemies, which are blaze rods. Their leader is the wither because the wither is the thing with enemies and the blazes are it’s peasants. (Also wither skeletons are its sort of knights)

dragonic can you make a series where you go into the features of a mob and redesign there body but with the key elements you found about them or find the closest animal that is like them?

A long time ago, humans went into the nether and built the nether fortresses.The blazes were their servants. Then the nether humans summoned something like a super wither that killed them all and made them to wither skeletons.

To add to matpats lore book, maybe they were just made to guard the fortress since the blaze rods spinning around the blaze are floating (which is only possible if they are manmade)

Finally I see a god dang opportunity to share my blaze theory! Nobody gives a damn about blazes in the community anymore, so here I go! (Building off of the ancient builder theory) My personal theory is that blazes are an automaton, (similar to the snow and iron golems today). This is evident in their mechanical breathing sounds, and the click clack sound that you hear when you hit a blaze with a sword. When the builders needed to stay long term in the nether, they probably needed better protection then what they had. Snow golems don’t last a second in the nether, and Iron golems are hopeless against things like Ghasts. As they say, necessity is the mother of invention, and that’s my guess on how the first blazes were made. The material used, could’ve been a flammable, metallic, yellowish substance, could’ve been mined as a ore, or grown by a plant on the surface. I like to think of it as a ore, feels more natural to have more then quartz, gold, and debris.) (Of course, if you’re asking me this, because you want to make a blaze rod irl video, I heard from somewhere that they smell of sulphur or something like that, so you might wanna start from there. ) Back to the theory, eventually the builders couldn’t sustain themselves in this harsh environment, so they had to go back to the threat that made them leave the overworld in the first place. Now, (I’ll be using the builder’s Endermen Matpat thingy here) the builders moved underground, made their strongholds, and prepared to move to the end. My guess is, they came in small groups, they didn’t go all at once. Once the builders still in the overworld realized that their brothers and sisters weren’t coming back, they went back to the fortresses, and rebuilt the blazes for one singular purpose only, guard the blaze rods with their life and make sure nobody follows in their footsteps. Think about it, if you made a grave mistake, and you see someone potentially heading down the same path, you would on some degree try to prevent history from repeating itself. Another hard fact, is blaze rods/powder is ESSENTIAL to light up the end portals and travel to the end. But as any Minecrafter knows, blazes won’t go down without a fight. So the first thing to prevent your end portal mistake, is leave that missing puzzle piece to only the bravest of people, braver then you ever were. Weaker adventurers would succumb to the flurry of fireballs headings your way, but it’s a better fate then being trapped in the end forever. Nowadays, the blazes serve as a worthiness test, if you can defeat a horde of blazes, you have proved yourself, and thus have a fighting chance in taking down the ender dragon, and finally freeing the End. (Who knows? Maybe that’s why fortresses are so hard to find. Maybe the long distances travelled from spawn prove that you have the determination and endurance to keep at it, when times are hard.)

In the ancient builders' age, people submitted experiments using toxic materials in the nether. After a couple of years of succes, the energy source exploded leading into littering the lava. Also some people fell into the toxic lava which was then the origin of blazes.

Thier heads look human and the nether mobs have been likened to the seven deadly sins... maybe a cursed soul of some kind?

The blazes are the protectors of the nether fortresses, and where the ones to cause all of the fire in the nether, heating it up and causing crimson forests to warp and go dormant, after they destroyed this world with their creators (wither skeletons), they killed their own creators, and now force them to protect the fortress from their own kind.

Well the blaze has fairly humanoid features, so I'm going to assume they are like endermen, ancient builders trapped in another dimension, but right now I'm going to focus on pigment. Well to start we know that pigs are the original pig-men, if they are struck by lightning the pigs become pig-men, bleach is made with sodium being exposed to high voltage, and bleach is acidic which could explain the rotted apearence, so the pigs prob have unnatural amounts of sodium, because we assume that bleach is made during the time that are exposed to lightning, and dissolves the flesh, so knowing how pig-men are made is one step, but assuming that they are/were being farmed by blazes raises a question, how do blazes get lighting to come, they obviously can't get it in the nether, so that means the originate from the over world, so they must have been a race of ancient builders, maybe blazes/ancient builders used netherwart to make potions so they could resist fire, but needed someone to turn to a blaze to achieve it, that person became mostly blaze rods because they had no need for other parts. The blaze rods must be concentrated netherwart or magma creme, something that we are too primitive to do. then they all became blazes due to the temptation of power, so they stoped caring about the pig-men, then the pig-men started to eat the nether wart and become smarter, making tools and soon made the spawners as a source of protection, but the further they progressed the more the nether did too, agriculture became more advanced, they found long range weapons, and soon they didn't need the nether fortress or the protection of the blazes, and soon the souls of the ancient builders became angry and sad that they had no purpose, and manifested as the wither skeleton, and the blazes just became an empty husk of what they used to be...

They were magical from the over world and were send to guard the nether structures from piglins. But then the piglens transformed them to monsters and raided the structures they guarded.

I think that blazes are constructs, similar to Iron Golems, because blaze rods seem inorganic and they look manufactured. I feel like they were made by the early builders to protect the fortresses from hostile mobs but after their constructors died out they slowly went rampant and eventually became outright hostile towards the remnants of the builders (also known as the players)

This is the piglin lore Pigs have further evolved in the over world they have looked for a way to gain more power so they went mining, they have gone to the nether and became piglins and raided bastions and some of them have evolved into piglin brutes. And this explains the ruined portals Edit:the portals were made by ancient builders

I feel like blazes were once a great species that thrived in the Nether, their original habitat. They were a prominent species and co-existed with other Nether species such as Striders and Ghasts. But when the Ancient Builders came, they were being oppressed and mass murdered. Eventually they adapted to this and became what we know as Blazes. The Blazes were used and were harvested where the Ancient Builders built Fortresses, in the form of Spawners. The Blazes were left there, having nothing but only their Blaze Rods.

Blaze are wether skeletons heads (old wether skeletons with 2 block heigth ) that are respawn useing lava and bones obtain by killed wether skeletons and this was done by builder ( who is now enderman ) to build ender portal. And when blaze where spawn they Kill some of builder who kill them when they was wether skeletons. And turn them into wether skeletons that we see now ( 3 blocks tall ) and with help of them they make nether fortress and idk How they make there spawners. 《Comments down your idea and like my comment so he can know》 I think they make there spawners because they only have head and cant multiple them and builder only make 1 or 2 of blaze. to protect there creation (nether fortress) they use magic and with help on piglin they created spwner Becoz piglin have a spawn in middle of bastion :) And the rods floating around them is to protect there skull because they have all there things in skull

Personally, I think that they are just naturally evolved organism related to ghost because of their Fire and flying properties. I think that they might just be in the fortress so that someone could farm them for potions. Think about it, there are the two main ingredients for potions in the fortress, nether wart and blaze rods, that are key ingredients in potion making, so someone is using the forts to make potions by putting the nether wart farms and the spawned there.

True in game they don't get hostility but maybe they were on a fight but now they don't care about them like the side off piglins and strider to make crossbows
