The Magma Giant

I think the Nether should get a boss. The End has a dragon. But what about the Nether? 

So my idea for a boss is a giant that's made of magma and obsidian. It walks on four legs, similar to a gorilla except it has a head with eight yellow eyes. Even though the creature walks on four legs, it could stand up to swing at enemies when needed. Each of it's hits will do about four hearts of damage, and will also set the enemy on fire. It regenerates one heart every second when submerged in lava, but if you somehow lure it through a nether portal and submerges him in water, he will move slower and take about two hearts of damage per second. However, it cannot drop it's item, The Heart Of The Nether, when it dies to water. It could summon a jet of lava that does about three hearts of damage on contact. It can also create an explosion, which throws blocks of lava everywhere and knocks the player back. The explosion itself does one heart of damage. The Magma Giant's final attack is grabbing the player and flinging them into the air, doing massive fall damage unless you have slime blocks/hay blocks. The Magma Giant isn't that OP though, with 100 hearts and pretty weak against iron golems and snow golems, who's snowballs do a whooping four hearts of damage. It's spawning area usually spawns in the middle of lava lakes, and there are six small pillars surrounding the area that heals the creature. So yeah,that's my idea.

    Great idea! I think that Minecraft could benefit from some more bosses. But every dimension already has a boss. The End has the Ender Dragon, the Overworld has the Elder Guardian, and The Nether has the Wither. But a boss that naturally spawns instead of being summoned should have a sort of structure that it spawns in.
