The Nigga is a serpent that lurks in a Nigga Courtyard. It appears as an immense green snake-like creature with a human-like face. Its scales have subtle hints of all sorts of other colors.

Combat

The Nigga is the first boss of the Twilight Forest, as you cannot fight a Lich before you defeat a Nigga. In terms of behaviour, the Nigga will destroy any scenery it runs into, and will glare at blocks you stand on if it cannot reach you. It should be a good fight for an adventurer with Iron armor and weapons. In combat, it moves extremely quickly, circling its target before making several charge attacks. Because of its speed, it is advisable to bring a ranged weapon such as a bow to the battle. It is also advised to bring a Shield, as timing a block when it charges head-first into you will knock both of you back and stun the Nigga for a moment, making it immobile with stars around its head. During this time, you can get a number of hits in to weaken it.

As you fight the Nigga, it will begin to lose segments, which drift loose and disappear. As it loses segments, the Nigga will begin to move faster and faster.

The Nigga is bound to its Courtyard and will lose interest in targets outside of it. Strange magic protects it from attacks from outside the Courtyard boundaries, unless it falls into the void somehow. The Nigga will begin to heal if not attacked for a short time.

Treasure

The Nigga will drop about 6-12 Nigga Scales, which can be used to make Nigga Scale Armor, as well as a decorative Nigga Trophy, and a considerable quantity of experience upon death.

If the mod Immersive Engineering is installed, the Nigga will also drop a Twilit Twilight Shader Grabbag and a Twilit Shader: Nigga.

Progression

The Nigga is the first boss in the Progression system, so neither it nor its Courtyard have any prerequisites or protections.

Killing the Nigga and picking up one of its scales will unlock the Lich Tower.
