Archvile
Archviles are malicious demons that rule of areas of the nether, and enjoy the smell of their victim's burning flesh and enjoy watching other demons tear their victims apart.

Archviles prefer to avoid combat themselves, instead they will strengthen any nearby demons and they will slowly engulf their target in flames.
Spawning
Archvile can spawn in the Nether.
Archvile can spawn from Nether Portals.
Archville spawners can be found in Dungeons (Vanilla).
Sub Species
For every Archvile that spawns, there is a 10% chance for it to be an Uncommon variants. Uncommon Archviles can be Ashen or Scarlet. An Ashen Archvile is dark violet in color, while a Scarlet Archvile is blood red. Uncommon Archviles have higher stats than a regular Archvile. This does not change their behavior.
