Airhead

The Airhead is an aggressive flying mob that spawns in the Candyland.

Spawning
Airheads spawn naturally in all biomes in Candyland

They will despawn if the player gets too far away from them, or if the difficulty is set to Peaceful.

Behavior
Airheads are flying ranged mobs that will strafe around targets in the air while firing projectiles.

They are aggressive, and will attack nearby players within 42 blocks without provocation. If attacked by another entity, they will retaliate and continue targeting that entity.

Staying outside of their targeting range will prevent them from attacking or targeting entities.

Bestiary Entry
"Inexplicably lightweight, this flying creature gives off the faint smell of bubblegum when nearby. It appears to carry around a large air sack on its head, possibly allowing it to be carried along by air currents.

When poked, its air sack feels soft and brittle; though it does seem to distract potential predators from harming it, as it hides its real head underneath.

When threatened, it fires extremely hard pellets that are manufactured by its own body at potential threats."
