Do blazes spawn without a spawner? I found a blaze a while ago so I thought that maybe the dungeon was buried under me. So I dug. didn't find anything. Did I just not dig enough or was there really no dungeon
According to posts in this thread, (and my own personal experience,) blazes can spawn without a spawner. But only on "NetherBridge"s, which we've taken to mean the open walkways at the top of a nether fortress.
I think there were like loads of blazes in the prerelease/snapshots of the 1.4 update but idk whether that has been fixed.. Check your Y level, maybe you're too high, or too low, or maybe the blazes are just.. randomly spawned.

I dare you to move your cursor to the green box on the bottom left of these words, and give it a click. I would give you a diamond, but I've lost it.

Well, they can spawn without a Spawner, but not without a Fortress. If you saw one it means there's a fortress nearby.
Pretty much this. I have seen blazes away from fortresses by as far as 50-60 blocks but they had to spawn in or near a fortress. Carefully dig down (spiral stairs cases work nicely) and see if you can find it. They are often at least partially buried in netherrack. I've found a couple of them only because the bridge pillars were visible and the rest was buried.
Found one what? Nether fortress? You would know if you found a fortress, they're the only source of (and made entirely from) the dark red nether brick.

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.
