Whistler

Cave and Cliffs Update mob concept. Villager-like mob that lives in the ‘deep dark.’ Has a high-pitched whistle that sounds like a boiling teakettle. This mob is a trickster and likes to confuse the Warden. Its eerie whistle calls to the Warden, but its whistling will turn silent when the Warden is within twenty blocks. Whistler’s have heightened eyesight that allows them to see clearly in the dark. They do not like anything that emits light and will run away from light sources. Whistlers are also curious, so if you have a chest that is in the dark, they may want to go through it. They love ores and crystals, so be careful what you leave in the dark. Hitting Whistlers will cause them to scream, attracting any nearby hostile mobs including the Warden. When killed, Whistlers will drop items that they have stolen from chests and/or random ores/crystals.
