| Summary | 0006612: Wandering Madmen | ||||
| Description | Probably more of a microboss than a regular enemy. The idea would be that these are survivors who ventured into the winds and went insane. They would have all the same movement abilities as you, and be equipped with a couple random spells of appropriate tier - possibly even an enchant (probably limited to enchants with appropriate effects, such as elemental damage reduction or multi-jump). Actually these guys would work best if they were sort of a "surprise boss" - a very rare enemy that can show up in any room ~except~ a boss room, but is almost as dangerous as a boss. That way they can have good drops - such as dropping their enchant, or a random crafting component of one of the spells they were using. If you also make them disappear entirely if you leave the chunk they spawn in it would create an interesting choice between running from the fairly deadly enemy, or fighting it for its loot. For extra bonus fun, they could turn into vengeful ghosts when killed, requiring you to defeat them twice. :) | ||||

I think it might be a good idea to make this creature hostile to both sides. Someone left alone in that kind of world, fighting to survive for weeks, months, or years at a non-stop pace would most likely lose the ability to distinguish between friend and foe. |

I'd agree with Maxwell. They've been fighting the monsters (with or without sanity), it would be a bit odd for them to not damage them just because you showed up. |

Yeah, that does seem like a cool idea. Add a third option for dealing with them - hide in the safest corner you can find while they wear themselves out fighting the room's enemies. :) |
