Minor characters (social media)
Throughout several video series hosted on YouTube, many minor characters appear. These are characters with names and personalities, but no sufficient depth.
Ten Things You Probably Didn't Know About Minecraft
Baba Yaga
Baba Yaga is a mythological figure, said to lure children into a house with bird feet and eats them whole. Within the show, there is a recurring plot thread where M.A.R.I.L.L.A. claims to have been turned into a computer by her. Initially, she brings her up while talking about the witch mob, and shows an image of her apparently so rancid it had to be censored. Later, while discussing spectator mode, she flies into Baba Yaga's house and suffers a mental breakdown.[1] In another episode, she offhandedly mentions "a witch" offering her three magic beans in return for digital immortality.[2]
Squid Overlords

In the second episode of the show, The Last Ten Years, M.A.R.I.L.L.A. declared 2016 was a "slightly bad year" for Minecraft, citing a war between humanity and squids. Although quickly clarifying that this hadn't happened until 2019, she believed that they took over incredibly quickly, claiming the entirety of all seven continents and redesigning monuments such as Mount Rushmore in their image.
Variation 3582
In the third episode of the show, M.A.R.I.L.LA. went into the introduction of tropical fish, designed to "add color to the oceans without pouring paint into it!" She spoke greatly of the 3,853rd variation of the mob, a Dottyback. However, she then proceeded to dub the 3,852nd variation "the worst," in spite of them looking near identical save for two pixels. This brings the fish to tears.
In the fifth episode, the fish made a cameo reappearance, during a sequence where M.A.RI.L.L.A. is overwhelmed by YouTube comments. Its comment is a request to make a video entitled "10 Scenes You Thought Would Be Easy to Capture In-Game but Were Actually An Absolute Nightmare."
How We Make Minecraft
Founder
Appearing in DID THE CRAFTER BREAK/FIX CRAFTING?, the Founder is the main antagonist of the second series, tricking Narrator into infiltrating Mojang Studios. Founding Jomang Studios, they intend to plagiarize Minecraft as part of a scheme to create non-fungible tokens.
Kawaii Mobs

During Adding a New Mob, three "kawaii" mobs appear, with non-pixelated, 2D mouths and hearts for eyes. They consist of a baby polar bear, a baby turtle, and a pig. When they appear, a song about friendship plays from an unknown singer, which they dance to. This occurrence brings great pain to Narrator, who pleads for it to stop. When it does, their eyes turn into puppy dog eyes with a sad frown, followed by angle bracket eyes and vibrating mouths as they cry rainbows.
Sweet Berry Bush and Susan

During Adding a New Mob, a sentient sweet berry bush appears, and is established to have married a woman named Susan. Fearing for its life, the bush asks for someone to tell their wife they love her, only for a nearby chicken to tell them that she left ten years ago. When a fox swipes the berries from the bush, its last words are "SUUUUUSAAAN!"
Around the Minecraft World in 80 Biomes
Iron Golem and Allay
Appearing in The End of Minecraft, the iron golem and allay are two characters appearing inside a jail cell outside of a pillager outpost. When asked by MARILLA what they were "in for," the allay replied tax evasion. Narrator then asked how the iron golem, made of metal, can't break out of a wooden cage, only responding with a request to remain silent. Similarly, the cage also has an exposed roof, and it is later revealed the iron door keeping them trapped was "unlocked."
Two Endermen in a Trench Coat
Appearing in Desert of Doom, Two Endermen in a Trench Coat are two endermen wearing a trench coat, attempting to get inside of Mobboland. They are denied entry for still being too short, which is ironic because endermen are known for their height.
Infomercials
Audience members
Throughout the series, several audience members appear, typically the same few. They make a variety of appearances, either reacting or comically unfazed by the events transpiring around them.
Mary McCorstin

During CANT.STOP.BRUSHING, a mother of four children is briefly interviewed, named Mary McCorstin. She relays her troubles dealing with brushing teeth, claiming that "the brushing never stops," only to have her concerns dismissed by Randy Peters.
Monologue characters
Throughout passages written by the editor, many characters are mentioned.
Mother and daughter
At the beginning of CANT.STOP.BRUSHING, a mother and daughter appear, with a simple situation being established. The mother is having difficulty getting her daughter to brush her teeth, leading to her being labeled cringe and yelled at. The solution to this problem is shown to be buying Colgate products.
