With Star Wars having the force realm , hyperdrive dimension , world in between worlds etc. It made me think , what if the warp isn’t the end , what if when someone disappears from the warp he goes to somewhere better ? What if slaneesh doesn’t eat the soul of the remaining eldar and it is simply chaos propaganda for slaneesh to feed off from the ecstasy and feeling of impending doom ? After all a powerful and calm eldar or any faction for that matter is the most dangerous thing for chaos. In fact I believe that a lot of feats of chaos are indeed propaganda and delusions , after all we are told that everything is canon but not necessarily true .

Also if we are assuming that all of the religions from real life earth exist also in warhammer this means that they aren’t warp phenomenon as :

They were created before the chaos “gods” existed and some are directly opposite and contrary to their nature
The eye of terror didn’t exist at that time so chaos phenomenon was much more contained and restricted.

This leads me to the conclusion that chaos is purposefully causing the setting to seem grimdark and didn’t intervene when the emperor dismantled the religions . Because ,again, the most dangerous thing for chaos isn’t a bolster or a superweapon but people knowing that they are parasites and that there is something above chaos that is good , be it God or in in a Star Wars crossover the force

This theory builds from liamvz’s theory on how the creepers are animals and the theory I have about the heart of ender being a fallen seraphim.

So to support the theory that creepers are not only a natural part of the world but also the victims of a wider plan I will use golem behaviour .

In the game the golem attacks most hostile creatures but creepers. Most would brush it off as a restriction put by mojang to prevent the mob from causing unnecessary damage but I disagree due to the fact that:

The creepers only target and explode on the player , even if mobs like skeletons attack it , it won’t aggro to them
Golems also target phantoms, endermen and blazes . Had mojang coded it with the thought of not causing unnecessary damage then it would put that gameplay choice against blazes or endermen .

I suggest that the creepers are the only natural part of the ecosystem with the other mobs being either of demonic nature or dark magic affected them. Based on lore given by devs, it is excited and nervous to meet the player and it is one of the few mobs that were created solely by the devs due to an in game bug and they later built upon its connection with nature . So what if the creeper doesn’t attack other mobs and only targets players because it wants to get help from the player? What if the creeper only tolerates other hostile mobs because it is too scared and almost paralysed by fear? This would explain why the golems don’t target it, because it is a normal part of environment unlike the mobs they target ?

let’s look at endermen in comparison, at first look it is a rather odd mod that seems like it minds its own bussiness , but in every official showcase we either see the protagonists feeling uncontrolled fear around it (Minecraft story mode), our screen getting glitched (Minecraft dungeons)or the endermam tried to possess Henry in the Minecraft movie by deliberately causing nightmarish visions . The last two are quite interesting as they themselves became aggressive in a manipulative way trying to highjack the sense of the player . This means that the golems target the endermen (even sometimes prioritising over other mobs) because they regard the enderman as a threat and a corrupting presence in the village .

Golems themselves are an obvious nod to Jewish folklore so it wouldn’t be impossible for the other mobs to be influenced by religion. Especially demons in orthodox Christianity where their main goals are to destroy , corrupt or mock the creation . So what if the endermen are mocking the player character? What if the endermen are an analogy to how the demons had rule over the material world through the aerial plane (in this case being the end)?

If you doubt the religious involvement then :

the enderman was based initially from slender man . A creepy pasta character that photobombed pictures and kidnapped people (even children)
in Minecraft dungeons we have pets like the guard vex , which were originally named seravex . Their naming only changed their place in the hierchy.
Evokers summon vexes by swinging their arms in the air . They cage allays to prevent them from helping the player and the allays patiently wait for the player to free them . Their dynamic is the obvious angel-fallen angel in the game
The three entities in Minecraft legends are called Hosts (angel hosts hmmm) , we also never see them demanding worship or calling themselves as deities.

I also pointed out the similarities between the heart of ender and a fallen seraphim in the Minecraft dungeons subreddit and a Minecraft dungeons content creator theorises how the heart of ender is a dark god and the ties of the game to biblical lore(his name is Xatrix) .

As for the zombies and skeletons , you should check out Xatrix’s video : https://youtu.be/obH163UlJns?is=4rrrCYrKSoOn9QkU even if you disagree he mentions an important lore point about the events of Minecraft dungeons
