Player Protection Mob: The Buddy

The Buddy is a mob with a sign for a head. There is a 15/100 percent chance that it will spawn. It spawns outside a village. You tame it with a birch sapling. To breed this mob, you need to feed it a cherry blossom sapling. There are no variants of this mob. When approached, will hide in the form of an oak plank block. When tamed, will follow you. When you, (the player) gets hurt by another mob, the Buddy will form a shield in front of you to block the next attack. Furthermore, the Buddy can be “upgraded” if you feed it a cactus, earning spikes on the shield form, which damages the enemy if they get too close. One more thing about this mob is that it has as much health as an iron golem, so it is almost unkillable. Please vote. :)
