Arachnophobia Mobs

This mod adds a small collection of freaky spider mobs, each with their own mechanics and features.  This is a very small mod that is intended to be used in a future pack of mine called Arachnophobia.  These mobs mostly spawn in the overworld with one spawning also in the End.  I may add more variants in the future if I come up with more ideas, right now this is just throwing cool spiders out to fill in some gaps for the modpack.

MATURE BRAINEATER

MOONCALLER

Mooncallers appear with their bright and flashy blue fur and orange accents, they hold their abdomen low until they see a player.  Once they do they start to perform a dance with it, casting a spell that calls the night itself!  If it is allowed to finish its call the time immediately shifts to night and it becomes dark again and all spiders resume their aggression!  Listen for chittering in the nearby area...
