Music Disc — ward
Music Disc ward is a slow C418 track dropped when a skeleton kills a creeper, then played in a Jukebox for ambient music.
Description
Music Disc ward plays only inside a Jukebox: insert the disc into the block to start the slow, somber melody, and the Jukebox releases faint note particles while the track spins. A Redstone Comparator placed against a Jukebox holding Music Disc ward outputs a signal strength of 10, letting builders detect or sort this exact record in automated music rooms. Survival players usually farm Music Disc ward by trapping creepers near a tethered skeleton, since a skeleton kill is the only repeatable way to obtain the disc.

Play it in a Jukebox
Place a Jukebox, insert Music Disc ward, and the slow C418 track begins playing with note particles.
A skeleton-killed creeper drops one random disc from twelve (13, cat, blocks, chirp, far, mall, mellohi, stal, strad, ward, wait, 11), so getting ward specifically can take several attempts.
