Imitator is a spell caster illager boss who can randomly transform into other illagers (including the illagers from mods) during battles, perfectly replicating their appearance and skills.
The more mods with illagers you install, the richer the morph of the Imitator.
You can customize the available morph type, morph time, cast time, max health of the Imitator through config file. So it could transform into other mobs, even other bosses.
Even if the Imitator transforms into other illagers, the morph after transformation is only its "coat", and the Imitator is still itself.
The morph lasts for 20 seconds, after which it briefly reveals its original form and then transforms again.
Woodland Mansion will now spawn one Imitator.
When the Imitator is in its original form, defeating it drops the Imitation Core. (If it dies while morphed, no loot is dropped.)
Placing the Imitation Core in a crafting grid with another item can duplicate the item - This will consume the durability of Imitation Core, the higher the rarity of the item, the more durability it consumes.
Using the Imitation Core on an Ominous Banner can summon the Imitator, to rechallenge the boss.
