Greening

Greening is the process by which a Piglin zombifies. It's not quite the same process as which a villager or player might — the body does not need to die first. Rather, it's more of a mental death.

A Piglin afflicted with green is often obsessed with the concept of dying. They may talk about it often, and zone out from time to time. Piglins call this [green's stare], a distant, far off look.

Greening is a type of reduction, most specifically zombification. Green Piglins will leave their family group and wander aimlessly in the Nether wastes and crimson forests. Curiously, they seem to bond with other green Piglins, despite having severed their familial ties. A green Piglin that was attacked will be defended by nearby green Piglins, even to the death.
