Minecraft Dungeons:Arch-Illager

"Corrupted by evil... Driven by vengeance... The Arch-Illager made all bow before him... And if they did not bow... they would FALL."

- Minecraft Dungeons Opening Cinematic

The Arch-Illager known by his birth name as Archie, is the main antagonist of Minecraft Dungeons. He is the leader of the Illagers in the game. the arch illager is a boss in game that summons vindicators or pillagers

History
"He became the Arch-Illager when he obtained the power of the Orb of Dominance. But before that, he was a misfit Illager who couldn't fit in a normal Illager society, and found this power within a mountain."

- Chris Nordgren

Before the events of the game, Archie was an exile from his people, repeatedly searching for a village to call home, only for the Villagers of the Squid Coast to reject him (possibly due to the Illager's warrior culture).

Eventually, Archie stumbled upon a mountain cave containing the Orb of Dominance. In an almost hypnotic state due to the Orb's power, he snatched the Orb and quickly took on the title of Arch-Illager, gaining immense power over his people. He then used his army of Illagers to raid the villages, taking their Villagers as slaves and developed a forge to create machines such as the Redstone Monstrosities.

The Arch-Illager repeatedly appears in the game to summon Illagers to attack the players, which occurs less often as the game progresses.

Eventually, once the players reach Highblock Halls, the Arch-Illager resides on his throne, summoning one last attack as the players reach him, before retreating to the Obsidian Pinnacle.

After the players reach him, he fights them himself. After taking enough damage, he is sucked towards the Orb of Dominance and manifests the Heart of Ender. Once it is defeated, the Orb of Dominance shatters, relieving Archie of its control, who then celebrates its destruction with the players.

he a murderer and he kill player.

Behavior
The Arch-Illager has 3 attacks. Sometimes, he teleports around the arena between attacks.

Summon Dark Creations

Since he is not much of a warrior, The Arch-Illager summons his darkest creations, a group of Illagers to assist him, usually, a ring of Vindicators around the player or a line of Pillagers through the center of the arena, however, this attack can rarely spawn a Redstone Golem instead. Unlike the Vindicators and Pillagers, the Redstone Golem does not despawn once the Arch-Illager is defeated. This attack is used sparingly.

Energy Blasts

The Arch-Illager fires 3 purple energy blasts in a horizontal swath towards a random player. Deals moderate damage if it hits. Used extremely often.

Enchant hostile mobs

The Arch-Illager can enchant hostile mobs in the same way that the Enchanter does.

Lore
Despite being incredibly small, the Arch-Illager is actually said to be an Evoker who was a member of the Woodland Mansions. However, he does much more advanced magic, such as summoning Illagers and casting other spells. The Arch-Illager was born as a Villager, and his parents cared for him. However, other members of his village thought that he was an abomination. This is the possibly the reason he is found in the wild when first introduced; he was possibly exiled from his former home.
