Xyraith (Custom Boss Fight)

***Xyraith, Emperor of Enderia*** is a upcoming **custom boss fight unique** to the Realm of Uz S.M.P servers end dimension developed by **Endistic** / **@endi stick / akarah. (Programming/Coding) ValMendoris / tinycookiejar (Voidscale Armor, and Overall Wiki Editing) Etherweaver / etherweaver (Boss Lore and Programming/Coding) and Dragunfire / .dragunfire (Me lol) (Stave of Judgement Name and Lore)**. Xyraith is planned to be summoned by using a wooden button in the middle of a pre-existing artificial structure in the end dimension, as well as this it is **currently unknown** if there will be a direct summoning cost to spawn Xyraith or not upon hitting said button, and if so if the summoning cost can cover one or more players. One summoned a message in the chat will send to all players in the End stating: "A deafening roar echoes across the End. (in light purple) **The Emperor prepares for battle.**"

**IMPORTANT NOTE: Endistic / Etherweaver / ValMendoris and any others working on this boss, if you would like you can message me on discord or on the S.M.P minecraft chat about revising and adding to this page, or you can add and revise it yourself, given you have a fandom account, just lmk.**

***Lore:*** Xyraith is a ender dragon of notable importance and power to the end dimension who is a **godbearer and the sole emperor of Enderia**, which could mean many possible things based on the definition of what it means to "bear" from the The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition.: 1. Xyraith carries gods from one place to another, acting as a form of vessel and transportation for god containment and travel, offering the gods a relatively-safe retreat from other players in the end dimension inside of a powerful being that offers protection and travel if necessary and a gods life is in threat, 2. Xyraith is moved or pushed by these gods that either contain Xyraith or are contained inside of Xyraith. What this could mean is that Xyraith is mentally and physically moved and pushed by force by these gods in actions and decisions, making Xyraith either a slave to the gods, or a owner of slaves, which in this case are the gods. If this is the case it would make sense that either Xyraith's mission he is tasked with by the gods is to ensure their safety, and the end dimensions safety from the players that make up the Realm of Uz, suggesting the gods are inclined to reserve or not engage with players directly, at least not by choice and give these tasks to Xyraith who most likely lives only due to his continued servitude of this task, or Xyraith is commanding the gods into a plan to stay owned or contained for a reason important to the gods and Xyraith, whether that reason is a end of the gods lives by Xyraith should they not listen, a reward or something else entirely is completely up to speculation currently.

Xyraith exhibits control over Endermen within a radius of himself as well, and can conjure them in a healthier, stronger form which is intent on destruction of player life, as seen in the Overlord ability. This suggests that at least some of Xyraith's or the gods powers are limited by physical distance and or a feature of the Endermen themselves that requires they be in a certain range of Xyraith to receive these adaptations to survive against players. The ability Xyraith has to skew the Endermens intent to focus on players suggests that Xyraith possesses some features of a hive-mind or is a hive-mind which can exert complete influence over one shared ideal, the death of player activity in the end.

Xyraith also is enveloped and incased upon the start of his life, and continued loss of life by his Godly Mantle, which protects Xyraith from all damage making him invincible until a Antithetical Shard is spawned upon killing 10 Endermen which can destroy this Godly Mantle upon hitting Xyraith, until the mantle is reinstated after the next 200 HP lost, where this process must be repeated once again until Xyraith's death. The word "Antithetical" is of great importance here as it could mean many different things for the lore. Antithetical means to be in diametrical opposition, which in this case could be that the Endermen are blaspheming upon their death acting as a natural opposite to Xyraith and the gods with their negative charged energy, making Xyraith and the gods much like a magnet, working best with positive and negative charges.

Xyraith also carries the ability to smite players with bolts of lightning, instantly killing them. This is a power a normal ender dragon would not possess and so I am almost sure this shows the gods influence acting through Xyraith, which goes back as far as Greek Mythology with Zeus, who was the king (Very similar to an emperor) of the sky (Void) and hurled smiting bolts of lightning, was incredibly fast, and could control the abilities of all his children, and could shape-shift or transform himself into other forms at will. This could be unintended and if so, be sure to correct me on this but what I believe this to possibly mean is that Xyraith's children are the end creatures, notably endermen, shulkers, Enderae and at least some gods, was most-likely born of gods or comprised of gods as well, and could be shape-shifted into a ender dragon as to not alert players of his true highly superior form to an ender dragon, using a classic trick of camoflauge that creatures are known to use.

Enderae, Voidcrazed Assassin I believe to be further evidence of a hive-mind between Endermen as Enderae's life is directly connected to Xyraith, like a baby to a mother through umbilical cord, and thus must feed on a portion of Xyraith's soul, power and life since Enderae can be killed manually, but is also sure to die upon the death of Xyraith, even if uninjured, showing a reliance on Xyraith much like the Orphan of Kos from Bloodborne if one is aware. The fact that Enderae is spawned from Xyraith only when Xyraith is at half health or lower indicates that Enderae could be physically leaking out of Xyraith through wounds or was waiting for a more preffered time of birth or summoning since Enderae will never appear before this half-health threshold for Xyraith.

**Boss Fight:** Xyraith, Emperor Of Enderia, currently has **6 known moves in arsenal**, these are: Overlord, Godly Mantle, Smiting Bolts, Call of the Void, Antimatter Bomb, and Antithetical Barrage. These 6 moves vary heavily in effect, going in order here is what they are planned to do:

***Overlord:*** Endermen in a 20 block radius will passively spawn at twice their normal rate, spawn with 15 extra hearts, will possess strength 2 while Xyraith is alive and will instantly target players.

***Godly Mantle*:** Xyraith starts off immune to all attacks and gains invulnerability every 200 HP he loses. To disable this invincibility, 10 endermen must be brought to death to spawn in a Antithetical Shard that will break this Godly Mantle allowing Xyraith to be damaged without protection until another 200 HP is lost, if the shard makes contact with Xyraith.

***Judgement:*** Xyraith will start summoning pink and black particles all across the arena, that will move forward from their spawned in location. The pink particles act as the trail of the black particles which are the ones that actually deal damage to the player and instakill them.

***Smiting Bolts:*** Every 7 seconds, rings of red particles will form under all players in the End that will instantly kill anything contained within them in 3 seconds. F5 is a good tool to use to play in third person to be on extra alert of this attack, some other reccomendations are to increase one's field of view to get a better sight of the red particle rings.

***Call of the Void*:** Once Xyraith's health reaches half or less, this move is guaranteed to be cast once, summoning Enderae, Voidcrazed Assassin (In light purple) who has 300 HP, (150 hearts) incredibly fast movement speed, high damage, and a shared-life with Xyraith, dying upon Xyraith's death if not already individually killed.

***Antimatter Bomb*:** Every 20 seconds, Xyraith will create a rapidly expanding circle of obsidian on the ground from the point where he flies, up to a total radius of 10 blocks away from him over 5 seconds. After these 5 seconds the obsidian will be changed into crying obsidian and those who stand upon this crying obsidian will face death upon contact.

***Antithetical Barrage*:** Every 10 seconds, Xyraith will unleash a flurry of invisible shulker bolts telegraphed by ink particles at up to three random players, these bolts last 10 seconds in the air on their way to players, and will instantly kill players and subsequently disappear upon striking a player, killing the player and the shulker bolt in the process. Time should be made to heal, eat food, buff, debuff, communicate, or attack Xyraith during the precious time between Smiting Bolts, and Antithetical Barrage which is 3 seconds after the cast of Smiting Bolts.

Here is a good example of what a attack pattern of repetition could look like for Xyraith:

1. Xyraith is summoned and spawns in with full health and his Godly Mantle, and Overlord powers active.
2. 7 seconds pass and Smiting Bolts is cast and will kill those that reside in the particles in 3 seconds, just as Antithethical Barrage is cast.
3. Antithetical Barrage is cast, and Smiting Bolts begin instantly killing players.
4. Shulker bolts from Antithetical Barrage remain in the air chasing players for 10 seconds more or dying upon contact themself.
5. At 14 seconds Smiting Bolts is triggered once again, and will kill players at 17 seconds.
6. Antithetical Barrage times out, and a new one is recast, alongside a Antimatter Bomb which will create a circle which will kill players in a further 5 seconds, lining up with a third cast of Smiting Bolts (at 21 seconds)
7. This pattern continues, but as you can see the boss moves are designed in a way that there is one 3 second break sometimes very rarely, and apat from this one must stay on constant-alert from 3 instakill attacks.
