Minecraft stray: the snow skeleton and its Slowness arrows
The stray is the skeleton variant of the snow. In certain cold biomes, such as snowy plains or ice spikes, most skeletons that spawn are strays: 80% in Java and 70% in Bedrock. However, they only appear under open sky, so in a cave beneath the snow you will usually find regular skeletons.
It behaves just like a skeleton, but its arrows carry Slowness and slow you for 30 seconds every time they hit. That is what makes it dangerous: after a couple of arrows, getting away or closing in becomes much harder. Its sounds have an echo, which helps you tell it apart from afar, and it does not freeze in powder snow.
You can also make one. A skeleton that spends 7 seconds in powder snow starts shaking and, 15 seconds later, becomes a stray at full health and with the same gear it had. The bogged and the parched do not convert this way; they take freezing damage instead. In trial chambers, each spawner has a one in three chance of using it as the ranged mob.
On death it can drop Slowness arrows on top of bones and regular arrows, a way to get them without brewing. It gives 5 experience and a bit more if it had armor, and sometimes drops its bow, with an 8.5% chance that rises with Looting.
