Minecraft Dungeons:Tower Guard

A tower guard is a heavily-armored hostile illager that wields a shield and a unique spear variant found in Minecraft Dungeons. The tower guard is also a stronger variant of the royal guards.

Appearance
Tower guards are illagers similar in look to the royal guard with the difference of them being exclusive to the tower and having unique armor and weapons. Firstly, they wear a unique hood with yellow outlines in the back, they also wear red underclothing under their armor, and lastly, they wear capes and don a unique red shield with yellow outlines dotted with four squares. This same pattern is seen on their capes. Their eyes are also seen glowing a bright blue.

Behavior
Tower guards have strength that is equivalent to the royal guard of the Arch-Illager’s army, capable of overwhelming the hero with both damage and numbers, they also like to circle the hero blocking them.

Tower guards are usually protected by their heavy armor, with their shield and glaive. The shield can deflect all ranged attacks unlike shields of the regular royal guard which can be broken with ranged attacks, so it must be destroyed first, so the hero can damage it. Tower guards, like royal guards, are slower than most mobs, but extremely strong, capable of dealing heavy damage to the hero. Their health pool is larger than the royal guards and they do more melee damage. They still can be stunned by normal attacks.

In this sense, they are the tower equivalent of royal guards, except they use an unknown glaive variant instead of a regular mace.

They have three behaviors:

If a tower guard is in range it charges at the hero.
 * Charge attack

Tower guards are capable of swinging their glaive at the hero, dealing heavy damage.
 * Basic attack

If the hero runs fifteen blocks away from a tower guard, it locks onto them and chases after them, ignoring other heroes.
 * Target lock

Tower Guard Shield
A tower guard shield is an unobtainable shield equipped exclusively by tower guards. Unlike the shields of royal guards, tower guard shields deflect all ranged weapons.

Tower Guard Spear
A tower guard spear is an unobtainable spear equipped exclusively by tower guards. Unlike the maces of royal guards, spears deal poison damage.
