Story
The story of Green Steve starts with a player playing on the 1.8 version of Minecraft and entering a desert temple, breaking the blue wool that sat in the middle of the room and jumping down. Upon jumping down the hole, the player landed on the pressure plate that would set off the TNT beneath it, but it didn't go off. Just after hitting the plate, a Steve-like mob coloured completely green jumped down the hole and hit the player, teleporting them to a bedrock room filled with creepers. The player then exited the world in a panic.
The day after the incident, the player logged into the world again and spawned in a forest instead of the creeper infested room, noting on how they had started a new world, but still spawned in the same one as last time. The player looked in the chat to see that Green Steve had typed "I am coming", and double-checked to see if they were in multiplayer mode, but they weren't, and wondered about the message whilst wondering through the forest.
A few moments after reading the message the player came across a house in the forest that was identical to the one he had built in his last world where Green Steve first showed up in. The house was empty and suddenly Green Steve entered the building, typing "Hi brother" before blowing up the player and causing them to delete the world. The player then emailed one of the game's developers about the entity seen in their game and got a reply, which detailed the developer meeting with another developer who wanted to add the Green Steve mob into the game, to which they refused, but caught him doing it anyway.
The story ended with the player commenting on Green Steve's origins possibly explaining that other alleged entities such as Herobrine could have also been added by the same person to spread fear and cause chaos.
In Other Media
Outside of the original story, Green Steve serves as a major anti-hero turned protagonist of "The Steve Saga", a roleplay series created by YouTuber FavreMySabre. Green Steve appears as not a singular entity, but an entire race of elemental creatures that live alongside other species of Steves. The first Green Steve is discovered by Sabre via being summoned by him, but started as an anti-hero due to his confusion about his surroundings, and eventually more began showing up, turning into major protagonists of the series. The Green Steves were commonly seen as shy, insecure, quiet and passive creatures who meant no harm, but were easily frightened by unknown entities such as players.
Personality
Green Steve is a simple AI programmed into the game with incredible malicious intent than any other mob. He is ruthless, cruel, deranged, and murderous, going after whoever he can and sending enigmatic messages to them to freak them out before he eventually catches them.
