Livid

"Welcome, you arrived right on time. I am Livid, the Master of Shadows. This Orb you see, is Thorn, or what is left of him. In a way, I have to thank you for getting rid of him. I can now turn those Spirits into shadows of myself, identical to their creator. I respect you for making it to here, but I'll be your undoing."

- Livid (Welcome Speech)

Livid is the of The Catacombs - Floor V. Livid can also be summoned by The Watcher in The Catacombs - Floor VI and The Catacombs - Floor VII.

Lore
Strongly believes he will become the Lord one day. Subject of mockeries, even from his disciples.

Boss Fight
Livid reveals a Dark Orb in the center of the arena as the remains of Thorn and that he is using its power to clone himself. He then blinds everyone for 1 second and spawns eight clones from Endermen. Each of these clones has the same amount of health and stats, but they have different nametag colors. The real Livid can be identified by looking at the color of the ceiling once the clones have spawned. When players kill a clone, it will regenerate all the way back to full HP and heal nearby clones by 25% of their maximum health. In Master Mode Catacombs - Floor V, all Livids will also gain a damage boost when a clone dies. Like Thorn, Livid has only one phase, which ends when the real Livid is killed (causing all clones to despawn).

Unlike other bosses, the boss bar does not show Livid's remaining health, so players cannot determine which entity is him by damaging them separately.

Hypixel has updated the Boss Room so that after the blindness applies to the player, the wool near the middle of the ceiling will indicate the color of the real Livid, and Livid and his clones also no longer teleport to players.

Collection
Killing Livid increases the Livid collection.

Boss Minions
Each of the clones has a unique combat trait.

Lore

 * He lived on the street, surviving by stealing fruit from peddler's carts, until he joined the Guild of Thieves, where he became a full member at the age of about 15 years. He received his first assassination contract at the age of 17, directly from the Guild's leader. While Livid was a very skilled thief, this was going to be his first murder, and he enjoyed it. He saw it as art. Over the years, he started to think it was too easy for him, and he sought challenging kills.
 * One very foggy night, he went to an Inn, happy with the night's conditions, prepared to hunt. He sat at a table, and ordered a drink, looking for a target, when a mysterious man came in. The man didn't make eye contact with anyone, and Livid noticed that he hid a small chest in a long black cape. Very soon after mysterious man came in, another man followed and sat at a different table and studied the first man for almost an hour. After the caped man suddenly left his table and went upstairs, Livid decided to learn more about this individual, so he sat a table with his companion, pretending to be a drunk. He learned that the caped man was a merchant from far away, Livid decided that he would make a perfect target.
 * He looked in the merchant's room through the window, analyzing it in the process. He saw that the merchant was asleep, but no sign of the chest. He readied his knife to strike, when his concentration was halted by a sound coming from an already inspected empty corner. Livid knew that sound does not come from thin air, unless magic is involved. The body in the bed was gone and before he could do anything he felt a sharp blade run through his body, he felt his heart be cut in half. Livid looked at his killer, and he saw a young, but deeply marked face, his skin mixed with some sort of gray dust. He was killed by a powerful mage. The blade was pulled out, no blood flowed, and Livid couldn't feel his body anymore. "H-how am I still alive?" He wailed.
 * His killer, Necron, then took his body with him to The Catacombs. Necron quickly noticed he was followed by the other man from the Inn, after questioning him, Necron decided to take Lathrop with him to his Master. Livid then became a Master Necromancer, training disciples, presumably for Necron's army. However his subjects were not loyal to him and they even mocked Livid, the reasons for this are unknown.
