Nymph (Terraria)

The Nymph is an enemy in the game Terraria. It was added to the game as of the 1.2 update

Lost Girl
The lost girl appears to be a naked woman with pale skin and grey hair

Nymph
The Nymph is the same woman, however, her skin looks rotten with drops of what seems to be blood on it and her eyes have turned red.

Behaviour
The Nymph will rarely spawn in the Caverns layer of the world as a Lost Girl. As the lost girl, it will act like an NPC that has been trapped and must be helped like the mechanic, stylist and goblin tinkerer, however, when the player aproaches her, or she gets hit by a weapon, she will transform into a nymph and attemt to kill the player who found her.

She has Fighter AI meaning she can run fast and follow the player. She also has a ton of health for a pre-hardmode enemy meaning she can easily trap and kill the player easily.

Loot
When killed, the Nymph will drop 5 gold coins and will have a 50% chance to drop a metal detector, a tool that can be used to find rare minerals and treasures.

Bestiary
The bestiary entry for the Lost Girl says: "Naked and afraid, this girl stands still, deep in the world, as if waiting for someone to rescue her and lead her to the surface."

The bestiary entry for the Nymph says: "Masterfully deceives explorers by posing as a lost girl, then attacks with ferocious might, blood-lust in her eyes."
