The Creeper (クリーパー, Creeper) is the main antagonist of the popular Minecraft song parody Revenge from CaptainSparklez.

Origin

A screenshot of a Creeper behind the main protagonist of the music video.

The Creeper first appears staring directly at the main protagonist of Revenge, as the protagonist is frightened by its appearance and runs away. Despite his effort, another Creeper walks up behind the protagonist and blows up, slightly injuring him as he walks home tired. In revenge (hence the song's name), the protagonist begins crafting a set of full diamond armor and a diamond sword, before walking out to the night, slaying a bunch of Creepers as he runs towards his own mine.

The song is notorious for the starting phrase "Creeper, aw man". This meme surged during mid-2019, as various Discord users would try to reply to the lyrics of Revenge with no avail. The meme would inspire countless others to repeat this meme with other materials, such as another CaptainSparklez's classic Fallen Kingdom

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

As a moveset element

Several Creepers appear in House of Boom, heading towards the victim before exploding. Their explosions combined with the TNT laying around seems to be what causes the titular "boom". Additionally, a Creeper is seen in one of Steve's victory poses, where it explodes before Steve lands, referencing its role in the animated music video.

As a costume

The Creeper as a Mii Costume in Ultimate.

A Creeper appears in Round 7 of DLC as a paid Mii Brawler costume. To match the Mii Brawler's model, the Creeper is given a more humanoid appearance with distinct arms and legs.

Spirit

A Creeper spirit appears as part of the Revenge DLC spirit board. Its spirit battle represents Creepers either using Mr. Game & Watch, or with Mii Brawlers in the Creeper costume if it has been purchased.
