==== Tactics ====
  * Dangerous from range due to lightning zap attacks that can hit multiple targets
  * Should be eliminated quickly before they can cast multiple spells
  * Will attempt to flee when health is low (at approximately 2/3 HP and 1/3 HP)
  * Resistant to lightning-based attacks (won't take full damage)
  * Can attack from a distance using Ballistica for line-of-sight
