A new image of the new creature - commonly referred to as "Endermen" - was released recently (enhanced here, for light levels). This image is much more up-close-and-personal than the first, giving us a good look at the new creatures. It would seem that wearing a pumpkin prevents the new mob from seeing you, although this is unconfirmed at present.
Additionally, Notch mentioned a possible name-change for the newly minted mob, "Farlander" being suggested and, apparently, already in heavy use.
Endermen = Ender of men/mankind
Farlander doesn't fit, because WHAT far land would they have come from?
NO it barely matches endermen are sposed to be slender men (tall skinny mythical creature wearing all black they like to follow children and are very creepy far lander barely fits it its not in far lands its in real world
farlander = awesome
Which category do you fit into?
If they get named Endermen, Im still going to call them Flanders
agreed.farland is a creepy place and they seem kinda based of slenderman.
I think Farlanders, as it suggests they came from a freaky, mysterious place.
Why not say that Enderman are "Farlanders" that is to say, they are from a group of creatures thought to of come from The Farlands.
Think of "Farlanders" being their nationality.
for those who don't know its based of of slenderman
I guess it's time for me to take over the minecraft world, yeahh this is good wait how do i know english I'm an alien?
ENDERMAN FTW
