Mods/The Aether/Sun Spirit

The Sun Spirit is the boss of Gold Dungeon. Sun Spirits appear as floating, humanoid torsos with arms. They seem to be made of fire, or at least have skin or armor reminiscent of it.

Spawning
One Sun Spirit appears in each Gold Dungeon. They are the only mobs that spawn in these dungeons.

Behavior
Sun Spirits will stand stationary in the center of the Gold Dungeon's room, tracking the player's movements when he or she comes within range. The Sun Spirit must be talked to using right click several times before it will attack.

When in attack mode, a Sun Spirit will float about the room randomly, shooting fire and ice balls. When injured, it will summon a smaller, quicker version of itself to attack.

Strategy
Sun Spirits are extremely difficult to fight, as touching the Sun Spirit's body, minions, or fireballs will cause damage, and the fireballs can start brief fires on the ground.

To defeat a Sun Spirit, the player must knock the ice balls it seldom shoots into it. This can be done with melee attacks (including punching), or with ranged attacks, such as arrows or darts. A Sun Spirit cannot be damaged any other way.

The minions it summons each time it is injured can be defeated using melee or ranged weapons, like other mobs.

Upon defeat, the Sun Spirit will drop both a Gold Key and a Sun Altar.
