Ghasts are monstrous hostile entities which appear in Mojang's Minecraft franchise.
Description[]
Large cuboid creatures which can be found floating around throughout The Nether, Ghasts have a pair of black slits for eyes, another for a mouth, and possess nine tentacles which dangle beneath the main body.
When destroyed, Ghasts have a chance to drop both Ghast Tears (an item useful in the creation of potions) and Gunpowder, along with experience.
Behaviour[]
Normally drifting passively throughout the underworld, Ghasts are capable of detecting players from extremely long distances, and once they have a target in their sights will open their black eyes and red mouths while spitting explosive fireballs capable of causing massive damage if not deflected. They will also emit a high, keening wail while attacking, and whenever they are hurt.
Their powerful attack and tendency to fly out of reach of melee weapons can make Ghasts a difficult prospect for the unprepared player, although their relatively low health means that batting their own fireballs back at them is an easy way to defeat one.
