Guardian Pig

Guardian Pigs are aggressive Mob that spawn from Pig Torches. Once they are killed, they drop 1 Meat or 1 Pig Skin, which is the same as normal Pig. Also, they have higher Health and they cannot be bribed by Meat or attracted by One-man Band. That shows the loyalty of Guardian Pigs to their Pig King.

All Guardian Pigs spawn from Pig Torch, the pig torch will spawn them every 3 days only when the Guardian Pig is dead. In Sandbox Mode, they may locate beside the Pig King. While in Adventure Mode, they stay in Pig Fortress which is surrounded by Wood Walls. In world 4 of Adventure Mode you can find 4 pig torches surrounding the Pig King instead of Obelisks.

They can also turn into Werepigs when the moon is full or given 4 Monster Meats, but they will return to normal in a faster rate. They can be frozen with two blasts using Ice Staff.

Behaviour
They act in groups and all of them will chase the player if the player is standing beside any of guardian pigs. When chasing the player, they will say something like "For the King!" and "For Great Justice!".

Here is the list of their quotes:


 * For Great Justice!
 * For His Plumpness!
 * For The King!
 * For King!
 * King King!
 * Save King!
 * Defend!


 * I sure showed him!
 * I Protect!
 * You Go Away!
 * You Leave Now!
 * More Fuel!
 * Make Torch Bright!

Also, they have a certain degree of discipline. They do not eat any food on the ground. They also stay near the Pig Torch and keep it lit. They will chase normal Pigs if Pigs stay near them.

Hostility: Guardian Pigs behaviour changes according to the location of its Pig Torch. If the torch is beside a Pig King, the guardians will reluctantly allow the player to stay and trade with their king. However, if the torch guards a fortress, the Guardian Pigs will pursue the player until it's run a certain distance from its torch.
