The Scuttler is a new mob that would spawn underground on layers 20 or below. They are fast arthropods and are commonly found. They can spawn in caves or in a special structure called "Scuttler Nests," which are small, enclosed pockets containing combwebs, powerful loot chests, and a Scuttler spawner.
Scuttlers can see you from 30 blocks away, and through walls, and they will dig tunnels through the ground to reach you. Scuttlers do not dig through ore deposits though, only through gravel, dirt and stone. They make a distinct noise when they are digging, so you know when they are coming. Scuttlers do not burn in the sun, and will always be hostile towards you. They can also climb walls, like regular spiders.

Why Add This?
Generally, players prefer to mine their own tunnels underground than explore caves when they are searching for rarer ores, like diamond or gold. Scuttlers would be an interesting way to spice up the monotonous task of strip mining while leading you to new ores and, on occasion, a new structure!
