The Warden has No Identity
With theories circulating that the Warden may or may not be a corrupted version of the Singer, what if we had it all wrong or at least looked at it from a different perspective.
There are striking similarities when it comes to the singer and warden but besides similar enough body structures and features, it ends there, but Thats the Point.
What if these Lost souls who came into the Overworld, using the resources around them from fallen mobs, constructed the wardens to initially be a pseudo-singer replacement but couldn’t exactly get it down to its exact detail from lack of resources, healthy skulk and darkness (seeing as Skulkers have Eyes due to their world having light) so it “Mouth” we’ve assumed could just be a A void where its face should be, like the singers, its chest open to show that its broken and full of scared and irritated souls, not reinforced like the Singers. Essentially Stripped of its Literal “Identity”.
It’s Anatomy Twisted, Infested from Inception and appearing rotten due to its usage of decaying matter and bones along with being trapped in a Deep, Dark, Soundless cavern where its forced to be Alone. Lashing out whenever it hears a sound as it feels a slight recollection of the melodic sift but reacting in anger due to feeling abandoned and trapped in a new, unfamiliar and hostile dimension entirely.
