Menace

The Menace is a late Pre-Hardmode Boss intended to be fought after Queen Bee.

While Menace is alive, their own music, "Menace" will play.

Spawn
Menace spawns by choosing the challenge option when talking to the Menacing Person Town NPC, which only appears at night after the Eater of Worlds or Brain of Cthulhu has been defeated. They can also be summoned by talking to the Funky Soul next to the Astrologist NPC at night.

Upon challenging the Mysterious Person/Astrologist, they will do a short animation of forming a giant Angry Nimbus and then begin the fight.

Behavior
Menace will always stay airborne throughout the fight, using several star attacks and ice attacks, even Tetris ice blocks in Phase 2. During every attack except the Ice Swords, Menace will follow the player's movement.

Attacks

 * Menace will rain down several star projectiles that bounce a couple of times when hitting any block before disappearing.
 * Menace will swoop left and right while their Angry Nimbus rains down frozen swords that inflict Frozen for 1 second upon hitting the player.

Phase 2
Upon reaching 50% HP, Menace will enter phase 2. Their previous attacks will stay the same, however Menace will gain 2 new attacks.


 * Menace will shoot out small stars that explode into bursts of giant stars.
 * Menace will start raining down Tetris ice blocks that explode upon hitting blocks, massively increasing the block's damage range.

Aftermath
Upon defeating Menace, she will fall out of her cloud and bounce once onto any blocks they fall ontop of. During this, she'll say "Nothing bad ever happens to the Menace!" and then get struck by lightning a couple seconds later, ending the fight. The camera will pan over to Menace during the lightning strike.

Alongside this, the Astrologist NPC will be able to move in, which allows the player to re-fight Menace at night.
