Caves and Cliffs Part II: Catalyst Blooming

Sculk catalysts sound like a really epic idea. They're a pillar of corruption that will cast its devil magicks at anything that is dead, kind of like a fungus. But the catalysts spreading sculk shouldn't be based on how much XP the entity drops. It should also be based on any organic drops from the entity since real-life fungi decompose those too. 

But not just that. If the entity either drops a lot of meat, or a lot of XP, the catalyst should either cast a shrieker, or another catalyst.

Lastly, if the catalyst gets a response for the warden's death, it should try and cleanse a bit off sculk, to ensure that there is a bit of purpose in killing the Warden, but you're better off digging all of it with a hoe.

  There is meant to be no purpose or incentive to killing the Warden. It's meant to be avoided. Also I'd like Shriekers and Catalysts to be non-renewable given how powerful they are, but we'll see about that. Also this is not real life, and the Sculk is not necessarily any type of fungi at all. There is lore that we're still not aware; have to dig for it once everything actually fully releases.
