Marsh Davies in Meet the Wither

Tom Stone in Meet the Creeper

“Oh what fun!” you say, upon seeing a tiny zombie riding an adorable chicken. “A tiny zombie riding an adorable chicken! I'm going to skip over and pet it. After all, what could possibly go wrong?”

Emily Richardson in Meet the Chicken Jockey

Per Landin in Meet the Wandering Trader
