Nether Moth

Add Nether Moths, which are attracted to Glowstone. They are passive, and when killed drop XP and have a 10% chance of dropping antennas, which can be worn in the helmet slot, and make you have resistance when you are 15 blocks or closer to glowstone. However, in order to balance out the easiness of killing the moths and obtaining the antennas, they have very low durability.

    I like the idea of nether moths flying around in the nether and it would be a cute addition, but don't the antennas seem kind of pointless? Think about it, how many times are you near a patch of Glowstone? since they are primarily on the roof of the nether you wouldn't get the advantage all that often unless you bring a block of Glowstone and a silk touch tool.

    So here is my slice, either Glowstone appears closer to the ground and becomes more common or the moths drop a different item. in my opinion, they should drop Glowstone dust, this would make a great and balanced way to farm glowstone.

    Spawning behaviour would be easy to understand and kind of funny, they are attracted to light after all. so spawn them near light sources in the nether.

    Hoglins should be passive when wearing antennas. And Hoglins in general should be somehow friendlier towards the moths.
