It's Wal... wait that's not it. It's the warden! The spooky, unfriendly (maybe it just wants a hug?) mob is making its way into our latest snapshot.</p>\n<p>Additionally, you'll be seeing some functionality for the sculk shriekers and some fancy new boats (they have chests).</p>\n<p>Enjoy!</p>\n<h1>New Features in 22w12a</h1>\n<ul>\n<li>Added Darkness mob effect</li>\n<li>Added Sculk Shrieker functionality</li>\n<li>Added the Warden mob</li>\n<li>Added boat with chest</li>\n<li>Added the Swift Sneak enchantment</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Sculk Shrieker</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Added functionality to the Sculk Shrieker: Notable for its boney appendages, this block responds to Sculk Sensors detecting vibrations by sending out a warning call to distant Wardens<ul>\n<li>Watch out when stepping on them, as they will feel that too and send out a call!</li>\n</ul></li>\n<li>Initially it may take some time for a Warden to arrive, but you'll hear it responding in the distance...</li>\n<li>Once it's close enough, a call from the Sculk Shrieker will summon the Warden nearby - be prepared!</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Added Warden mob</p>\n<h2>Warden</h2>\n<p>The horror of the Deep Dark! A creature with no eyes, roughly resembling the Sculk that can be found throughout the Deep Dark, the Warden is an unstoppable force of nature that inhabits this biome</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Just like Sculk Sensors, these terrifying creatures use vibrations as a means to navigate their environment</li>\n<li>When vibrations aren't enough, they will also use a sense of smell to track down their prey - you can observe them sniffing their surroundings to get closer to unsuspecting players and mobs</li>\n<li>To add to their myriad of ways to detect you, try not to get too close! If you collide with a Warden, it will notice you</li>\n<li>In the Deep Dark, Wardens are everywhere - you just can't see them. They slumber beneath your feet, and only dig out when enough Sculk Shriekers have alerted them of your presence</li>\n<li>Watch your step: the more vibrations a Warden detects, the more angry it will get. You can hear and see this from how fast the souls in its chest are beating</li>\n<li>Once a mob has pushed beyond the Warden's anger threshold, it will face its prey and roar before charging</li>\n<li>If, however, you keep the Warden from noticing you or getting angry for 60 seconds, it will dig back underground and despawn</li>\n<li>They have a special interaction with thrown projectiles<ul>\n<li>If the Warden receives two projectile vibrations within 5 seconds of one another, it will grow angrier at the shooter</li>\n<li>If the Warden receives a projectile vibration more than 5 seconds from the last projectile, it will not grow angrier at the shooter</li>\n<li>This allows you to strategically distract the Warden without it getting angry while you take loot from nearby chests</li>\n</ul></li>\n<li>Unfortunately for all players, Wardens will also disable shields when they hit them with their fists</li>\n<li>They do not drop any loot</li>\n<li>Wardens are powerful creatures, and it is often better to sneak around one that has emerged instead of taking it head on - you've been warned</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Darkness</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>A new mob effect unique to the Warden and Sculk Shrieker, which will afflict you with it when nearby</li>\n<li>Lowers the gamma down at an equivalent of \"Moody\" while having this effect</li>\n<li>In periodic pulses, will lower the overall brightness of the world so that the darkness creeps up against light sources</li>\n<li>When the Warden is around, torches will be more important than ever!</li>\n<li>A new Accessibility slider has been added in your Options menu called “Darkness Pulsing”<ul>\n<li>Controls how dark the Darkness effect gets when a Warden or Sculk Shrieker gives it to you, but will not affect the fog distance</li>\n</ul></li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Boat with chest</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Lets you bring more stuff on your boat adventures</li>\n<li>If you are in the boat, press the open inventory key to access the chest contents</li>\n<li>If you are not in the boat, shift-right click to access the chest contents</li>\n<li>If you break the boat the chest contents will spill out, like with other chests</li>\n<li>Also works with hoppers, droppers, and other blocks that interact with chests</li>\n<li>Like other chests, opening a boat chest or breaking the boat will anger piglins, since they think all chests belong to them</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Swift Sneak</h2>\n<p>Imbue your leggings with this shiny new enchantment to move as fast while crouching as you would normally walk!</p>\n<ul>\n<li>When applied, it will increase your movement speed while sneaking</li>\n<li>Has 3 different levels with different speed increases</li>\n<li>It is the first enchantment unique to leggings equipment!</li>\n</ul>\n<h1>Changes in 22w12a</h1>\n<ul>\n<li>The Deep Dark biome is now less flooded than surrounding areas</li>\n<li>Leaves are now waterloggable</li>\n<li>Removed debug
