Adding a New Mob

Narrator is a character in the official Minecraft YouTube channel voiced by Matthew Holness.[1] He narrates several series of videos, including a long running series of farcical edutainment videos with M.A.R.I.L.L.A., and independent documentaries where he serves as comic relief.

Appearance

Narrator uses a skin made in the Character Creator. Due to the changes made to many of the default pieces, it is no longer possible to properly recreate a show accurate Narrator, but all the pieces are still available.

His skin received a slight update for the animated sections of the second How We Make Minecraft series, featuring a new texture in place of the Slender Skin base. Everything else remained the same, and the gameplay sections still feature Narrator's original skin to this day.

Trivia

  • The description card on Minecraft's YouTube channel has him as "Untelligent", [sic] "Self-proclaimed Minecraft expert", etc. This changes each episode.
  • Narrator allegedly married Mobbo, though he doesn't remember it.[2][3]
  • He claims to have been born with the first name of "Testificates," because his parents didn't like him.
  • He believes that "MARILLA was created a few thousand years before rocks were invented".[4]
  • He supposedly met his end at the hands of the Warden by the orders of Mobbo.[5]
  • Narrator is canonically divorced from his ex-husband, Jonathan Minecraft.[6]
  • He claims to have been almost cast in Avengers Endgame, playing a character M.A.R.I.L.L.A. refers to as “Cowardly British Man.”[7]
  • He also claims to have been offered the lead role in Iron Man 2, which he didn't take because of the Minecraft voiceover opportunity.
  • He works at Mojang Studios as the Coffee Boy, although he says he only took the job to act as a spy. This is later confirmed to be because of Mojang Studios' archenemy, Jomang Studios, however Narrator doesn't appear to remember being recruited.[8]
