Minecraft Dungeons:Tower Guard

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

Appearance
Tower guards are illagers similar in look to royal guards 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.

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

Tower guards are usually protected by their heavy armor and their shield and glaive. The shield should 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 gold armored vindicator and they do more melee damage. They still can be stunned by normal attack.

In this sense, they are the illager equivalent of skeleton vanguards, except they use maces instead of glaives.

They have three behaviors:

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

Tower guards are capable of swinging their mace 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.
