Headless Horseman

The Horseman Headless is a Boss spawned by using the Horseman's Candle.

Spawning
The Headless Horseman is spawned when a Horseman's Candle is used under valid conditions. Horseman's Candles can be purchased from the Fear Mongerer for 32 Purple Candy.

The Candle must be used under valid conditions in order to spawn the boss:


 * It must be nighttime (7pm - 6am).
 * It must be used in the Graveyard or Wilderness in the Hub.

Drops
Upon death, the Headless Horseman turns the ground under its death point to obsidian in a 2 block radius. A message is printed in chat announcing to the server that it has been defeated, who dealt the final blow, the top 3 damagers, and the player's damage, position, and gained Runecrafting XP and Bits, similar to the message printed when an Ender Dragon dies. There is also a beacon block shooting into the sky to signal that the boss has been defeated. Around the beacon is where the drops normally spawn.

The Headless Horseman drops:


 * 0-2x Green Candy.
 * 0-2x Purple Candy.
 * 5 Bits.
 * Up to 150 base Runecrafting XP.
 * 4 Spooky Shards to the player who spawned it.
 * 1 Spooky Shard to the top damager.
 * 0-1 Spooky Shard to the runner-up damager.

Behavior
The Headless Horseman constantly attacks the nearest player rapidly, dealing lots of damage. It also possesses two abilities:

Headless Zombie Swarm - Summons a horde of 4 baby Headless Zombies with 20,000 HP each. They will attack the nearest player.

Bat Swarm - Summons a horde of bats which throw Damage II and Wounded II potions at nearby players. The Damage II potions deal 10 damage and Wounded II potions reduce healing by 50% for 1 minute.

The Headless Horseman cannot be damaged by arrows. Attempting to damage it with arrows will reel the player towards the boss and blind them for 3 seconds.

Trivia
