Why is herobrine on my server

No one knows who made the account, nor has anyone ever legitimately seen the real player on a server before. The account sort of just Anyhow, I invited quote, unquote "Herobrine" to the server as a joke, thinking that he would never join. Well, much to my surprise, he did. That Saturday night, my friend Evan and I were just building random shit in creative mode, Skyping and all, when suddenly in the chat;.

At first, I thought Evan was just screwing with me, thinking he did some sort of command. He thought I was doing the same. That when I pressed tab I still thought Evan was screwing with me with some sort of weird command, being I was 12 and didn't know shit about commands. He thought I was doing the same, once again. That's when I teleported to "Herobrine," he was just standing still, not moving a bit. That's when Herobrine then began walking in one direction.

Just pressing the W button, walking in one direction is all. My fetal little kid-mind was blown, and Evan had no explanation. I decided to teleport him into my farm since it was fenced off and all, and whoever was controlling the Herobrine account wasn't breaking any blocks.

Evan kept leaving and joining the game for some reason, don't remember why in all honesty, but that was the least of my interests; I may have possibly been the only one to see Herobrine, for real.

Or, at least as real as anyone could get. Herobrine then stopped walking and started looking dead at me, much like how an NPC with the Citizens plugin would do, it's head following your movement. That's when I decided to kill Herobrine, simply using my diamond sword on him considering he was in survival and I was in creative. Thinking he respawned, I teleported to his location to see As I expanded to world I saw things that seemed out of place for the random map generator to make; 2x2 tunnels in the rocks, small perfect pyramids made of sand in the ocean , and groves of trees with all their leaves cut off.

I would constantly think I saw the other "player" in the deep fog, but I never got a better look at him. I tried increasing my render distance to far whenever I thought I saw him, but to no avail. I saved the map and went on the forums to see if anyone else had found the pseudo-player. There were none.

I created my own topic telling of the man and asking if anyone had a similar experience. The post was deleted within five minutes. I tried again, and the topic was deleted even faster. I received a PM from username 'Herobrine' containing one word: 'Stop. I received an email from another forum user. He claimed the mods can read the forum user messages, so we were safer using email. The emailer claimed that he had seen the mystery player too, and had a small 'directory' of other users who had seen him as well.

Their worlds were littered with obviously man-made features as well, and described their mystery player to have no pupils. About a month passed until I heard from my informant again. Some of the people who had encountered the mystery man had looked into the name Herobrine and found that name to be frequently used by a Swedish gamer.

After some further information gathering, it was revealed to be the brother of Notch, the game's developer. I personally emailed Notch, and asked him if he had a brother. It took him a while, but he emailed me back a very short message:.

I haven't seen the mystery man since our first encounter, and I haven't noticed any changes to the world other than my own. My name is Nitro. But, my cousin may have added in a mod without me knowing. We'll never know. His first appearance in official Mojang images started with the Wedding Weekend, in which he was just behind Notch's Minecraft character. His second appearance was in the Minecon header, where, yet again, Herobrine was just behind Notch.

Herobrine also appeared in the the official Minecon trailer , created by Hatfilms, at However, as users were asked to submit their skins to appear in the trailer, this is likely not intentional. Some users point to this as proof of his future addition. However it is likely a Red Herring, and only there to provoke Herobrine "supporters". Minecraft Fanon Site Wiki Explore. Wiki Content.
