Phantomanta

Transforms phantoms into manta rays that attack from the murky depths below.

Description

A player, equipped with a trident, faces off against three phantoms in the Warm Ocean biome. Above them is the title "Phantomanta" stylized in all caps in a pixelated font. Below it is a subtitle that says "noun" in italics. At the very bottom of the image, below the player and the phantoms, a second subtitle says "Where it should have been to begin with."

Phantomanta transforms the normally airborne phantoms into manta rays that attack you from the murky depths below.

This is a relatively minor behavioral change to the pre-existing Phantom mob:

Phantoms will now spawn exclusively under the water.
They will hang around seagrass and kelp, circling around in the same way they usually do in midair.
Phantoms will jump out of the water to attack players if within aggro distance.
If above-ground for too long, Phantoms will fall back into the water.

This mod is pretty simple and bare-bones, so I will do my best to port it to a few versions, but no promises!

This mod was made as a project for Mogswamp!
