Ancients Awakened/Bosses

The Ancients Awakened Mod expands on the number of bosses that can be challenged throughout the game, each featuring unique AI and drops. They require the use of boss summoning items in order to spawn. They also have lore that explains what they are and why they exist, further increasing the depth of these bosses. The mod currently adds 23 new boss encounters, four of which are much harder rematches of existing bosses. There are 9 Pre-Hardmode bosses, 4 Hardmode bosses, 4 Post-Moon Lord rematches, and 6 Post-Moon Lord bosses. By the end of the mod's development, a total of 40+ bosses (excluding rematches) are planned.

Bosses are further sorted into Ancient, Superancient, and Hyperancient (not yet implemented) categories, which are indicative of their power and significance to the mod's story. There are currently 6 Ancient bosses and 1 Superancient boss.
