The Nether Labyrinth

The Nether has only two structures (I am counting bastions as one structure). It could really use some more. Here is my idea: A structure made of a difficult to mine block. In addition, it is a bad idea to try and mine these blocks to cheat, as you will be exposed to a new mob. I was looking at the old warden designs, and I thought it would be cool if we could include something similar to the stalker, but it would work differently. They would wander the labyrinths, and attack anyone mining or placing blocks, otherwise, they will ignore you (unless you attack one, of course). They would be in the labyrinth to protect the final room. If you reach this room, you will find some really good loot, possibly gold blocks, and maybe even a wither skeleton skull??? Tell me if that is too overpowered. The trouble here is that all the blocks are placed. If you try to close off the room, the stalkers will notice your block placing, and they can remove any non-natural blocks in their way. If you try to mine the blocks, they will still notice you. You have to find a way to distract them long enough to mine the blocks, and then find a way out of the labyrinth without them reaching you. If you get out, and the stalkers follow you, they will immediately die, and drop soul sand and soul soil. Maybe they would attack you with a soul based attack, such as a transparent blue hand reaching out (through blocks) and dealing a lot of damage. They would have 50 health.

    I like this idea. It is super cool, and has lots of unique concepts. You did not mention which biome it generates in, so I think it should be in soul sand valleys. Additionally, maybe update the stalker's texture (not its overall shape) to make it look like it is at least partially made up of soul sand or soul soil. The loot does not seem to overpowered. Bastions have lots of gold blocks. Also, if it generates only one Wither Skeleton skull, then it isn't too overpowered as these are only really used for summoning the Wither (which requires you to get three skulls) and for hiding from specific hostile mobs. The labyrinth should be a rare structure, but I am not sure exactly how rare it should be. What do you think?

    Good point! I agree about the soul fields and soul sand. What do you suggest for the loot? If gold is too little, Netherite seems like too much. I would imagine as rare as nether fortresses, as these are already hard to find and get to, so why make something even harder?
