An '''evoker''' is a spell-casting [[illager]] that can be found in [[woodland mansion]]s and as part of raids. They are the only source of the [[totem of undying|totems of undying]]. Evokers use two spells to attack: one that summons armor-piercing fangs and one that summons [[vex]]es, which is the one of the only time2 times vexes can spawn (along with spawn eggs).

Evokers [[Mob spawning|spawn]] during the generation of particular [[woodland mansion]] rooms. They only spawn on floor 2 and 3. They do not respawn after their initial spawn.

If an evoker is attacked, all evokers in a twelve [[block]] radius become alerted and start attacking the player, even if they are behind walls. {{IN|java}}, the alerted evokers can attack the player from an infinite distance away, even if the player switches to [[Creative]] or [[Spectator]] mode<ref>{{bug|MC-147574||Attacking a group of evokers gives nearby evokers infinite detection range and broken attack behavior}}</ref>; this can be fixed by relogging the world, or by setting the [[game rule]] <code>universalAnger</code> to <code>True</code>. This is only true for the alerted evokers, not the intitiallyinitially attacked evoker.

Fangs appear no lower than the feet of the lowest combatant and no higher than one [[block]] above the feet of the highest combatant. Fangs attempt to appear on the highest [[opaque]] block between those two extremes, but fail to spawn if they are obstructed by a [[solid]] block]]. In practice, this means that fangs cannot spawn inside deep pits or on top of high walls, but may, for example, go up a staircase if the target is at the top and the evoker at the bottom, or vice versa. Likewise, an evoker floating in a boat on [[water]] cannot summon fangs against a player [[swimming]] or floating in a boat because there are no opaque blocks from which the fangs can appear.

The evoker signals this attack by producing white [[particle]]s ({{EffectSprite|particle-evoker-summon}}) for two seconds and a higher-pitched [[sound]]. ThreeAfter that, three [[vex]]es appear nearby. The evoker can summon vexes as long as there are fewer than eight vexes within sixteen [[block]]s centered on the evoker.

{{IN|bedrock}}, evokers can still change a sheep's color, even when {{cmd|gamerule mobGriefing}} is set to <code>false</code>.

'''Evoker fangs''' are the entities that evokers use to attack the player (or adult villagers, iron golems, snow golems{{only|bedrock}}, and wandering traders) with their fang attack. Evoker fangs are not affected by the Peaceful difficulty.
