Replicator
Note to moderators: If this post breaks any rules or is too similar to another post, let me know so I can revise or visit that post.
Illagers have a lot of magic. Some make fake duplicates, some summon jaws from the ground, some throw spikes, and some enchant mobs. I've designed yet another Illager with another new spell: replicating things.
This new mob is for Minecraft: Dungeons, and is fairly uncommon. It dons a faded purple robe, a long cape, and a double-topped hat with a crystal. Above the hat floats an orb with particles around it.
The Replicator spawns in a few levels, with a rarity similar to that of the Enchanter. It possesses the ability to clone weak monsters (zombies, silverfish, etc.), creating a slightly weaker clone of that mob. A Replicator can only make 7 duplicates of any mob, and when the original dies, all duplicates die too, and if the original receives a boost, all duplicates do too. While the duplicates have their own separate health, hitting the original damages all duplicates. When a Replicator dies, all duplicates summoned by it disintegrate, and Replicators can't make a duplicate of a duplicate.

Additional stuff about the orb above his head:
The orb itself is actually 2 textures: an outside cube and an inside one. The outside one is a shell, with hollow parts to the inside, so in 3d it'd look like this:
With the inner and outer cube colored so they're easier to see:
The inner and outer orbs rotate around each other, spinning in random directions slowly. The particles (
) that float around loosely orbit around the orb, floating behind when he moves like sparks from a fire. When the Replicator does his magic, the particles all spiral towards the center, while the inner and outer cubes move faster and eventually line up like the above illustration when the spell is complete. Then, the orb then splits into 2, like how a cell splits.The animation where the particles spiral around will play during the duration of the spell, and the splitting animation plays when it's complete.
