</button>. - Hold it and use it to summon a watcher four blocks behind you. The space behind you must be clear.

The item has a 15-second cooldown after a successful summon.
Overview
The Vanishing Watcher is a reusable summoning item. It calls forth a silent, motionless, Enderman-like watcher that observes the nearest player. It is harmless and cannot be damaged.
How To Use
Use the item while holding it to summon the watcher behind you. A successful summon makes a brief teleport sound. If there isn’t enough room behind you, the watcher won’t appear.
Crafting And Obtaining
Craft one Vanishing Watcher from phantom membranes, black dye, and an Eye of Ender:
Abilities And Mechanics
- The watcher stays in place and silently faces the nearest player within 24 blocks.
- It vanishes when that player looks directly at it and has a clear line of sight.
- If nobody makes it vanish, it disappears after about 60 seconds.
