Bal

 is a boss that spawns every 5 minutes while a player is near. It spawns in Khazad-dûm of Crystal Hollows.

Bal and the Khazad-dûm are based off the story by J. R. R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

Behaviour
Bal will hop around the arena, summoning Yogs, Fire bats, and Blazes to attack the player while shooting fireballs. These generally do little to no damage to the player, with the Fire bats and Blazes easily ignoring the player if they have an Intimidation Talisman or better.
