Lunatic cultist

Personality. Told in lore and in-game bestiary descriptions, the cultist is true to his name of being an utter lunatic. A sadistic fanatic and madman willing to doom the world to eldritch horrors, being devoted to the Moon Lord to the point he is willing to resort to using his remains to bring him back.

Appearance. The Lunatic Cultist is humanoid but it's uncertain whether he's actually human or not, given his bleach-white skin and clawed hands in official artwork. He seems to wear a plague doctor-like mask to obscure his face and wears a blue robe with gold lining, obscuring his hands and feet. The Lunatic Cultist makes its first brief appearance at the Mysterious Tablet as soon as the Cultists are defeated. It is not vulnerable to attack at this time. It then warps to just above where the player was when the teleport started, and cycles between three attacks: A burst of three FireballFireballs (four in Expert Mode) that lightly home in on the player, exploding on impact A ball of Ice MistIce Mist that fires ice shards in six directions four times over as it flies in one direction before slowly fading away A Lightning OrbLightning Orb that fires five bolts of lightning at the character When the Lunatic Cultist reaches half health, it will occasionally replace an attack with two spreads of five destructible Ancient LightAncient Light projectiles. In Expert Mode after reaching half health, it may also replace an attack with numerous Ancient DoomAncient Dooms that fire four purple Prophecy's EndProphecy's End projectiles in a cross pattern. The Lunatic Cultist cycles through five attacks (six when below half health) before proceeding to spawn phantom duplicates of itself called Ancient Cultists, along with a larger version of the Mysterious Tablet via a "ritual". Unless the one true Lunatic Cultist is interrupted by an attack from a player during this ritual, the duplicates fly in formation and add their homing Shadow FireballShadow Fireball attacks. Attacking a duplicate or taking too long hitting the real cultist results in the summoning of the Wyvern-like Phantasm Dragon Phantasm Dragon Phantasm Dragon . If there is already a Phantasm Dragon inbound, attacking a duplicate triggers an Ancient VisionAncient Vision, which will charge the player diagona
