Description

Inspired by the book 'Day of the Triffids' en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_… this is a mob that I can do a much longer design inspiration bit. I've made the legs as stumpy as they were on the original book cover, the leaves are obviously based of venus flytraps (just like most triffid designs) and the tongue like things I've got there is actually going to be a bit like the main 'head' of the creature. Any way, read the description and as usual, enjoy
Triffid
Mob Type: Hostile
Health Points: 35
Attack 1 Damage: 8
Attack 2 Damage: 5
Poison Effect Time Length: 20 Seconds
Blindness Effect Time Length: 1 Minute
Spawn: Plains, Sunflower Plains, Forest, Flower Forest, Swampland, Jungle, Birch Forest, Roofed Forest, Savannah, Taiga, Mega Taiga
Drops: 0-1 Triffid Bulb
Experience: 5
Luckily these mobile plants are incredibly rare, though they spawn in groups of 2-4 triffids. Now, being plants they have no sense of sight but they have excellent 'hearing', being able to find moving creatures from 50 blocks away. Now, don't think standing still near them will help as they use their 'tongues' to feel around as well, meaning they can navigate around blocks and be able to feel out any mobs they wish to kill. But they'll never attack other triffids and won't respond to other triffids rattling with hostility. They have two attacks, the first one is the triffid lashing its tongue at the player and poisoning it whilst the second one being a thin needle that blinds living things on contact. But to add more depression for any players that spot one, a triffid that's on fire will set any blocks and mobs it comes into contact with on fire.
