Ravagers in Minecraft are some of the most dangerous hostile mobs. They mostly spawn in village raids and are ridden by Pillagers, Evokers, or Vindicators. Due to their massive health bar and lethal attacks, Ravagers are quite difficult to slay.
Though there has been a lot of speculation and theories about how Ravagers were created by other Illagers, an unofficial comic was recently posted on the Minecraft subreddit that explores a dark theory.
A Redditor by the name of "u/DongLie" posted 10 pictures of a custom comic that depicts how Illagers captured innocent villagers and turned them into Ravagers. Each and every page had an extremely detailed sketch and narration that told a horrifying, dark story.

Utilizing terrifying motifs and imagery, a chilling tale awaits Minecraft fans. The Redditor "u/DongLie" has made several other artworks in the past and posted them through his Reddit account.
