From the survey that came along with the 1.4.4 Pre-Release, Mojang evidently sees a need to add a new mob. My first thought was adding a banshee. I feel that a banshee fits the theme of Minecraft because it is terrifying and mystical. If this idea were to be considered, I'm sure I, as well as most of the Minecraft community could creatively branch of this idea for days. If you think this could make a fitting addition to Minecraft, please support the idea. Thanks
Be more specific. How does a Banshee behave to make it worthy of introducing to the game? What are its attacks--how is it distinct from the mobs we already have?
Obviously you don't have to go into too much detail about drops and stuff--ingredient functionality is pretty difficulty to nail down on the fly until you figure out needs elsewhere. But go into mechanical details about the mob itself.
Guys! I have an idea. Hell Hounds. Lets make it happen. Lets sling a bunch of random properties on it and see what happens.
See? Not listing details makes it very hard for your idea to be worthy. Please go into more details
I'm trying to make a clear opening for everyone to branch off with their own suggestions. Sure I have my own property ideas, but I see it best if we all make suggestions rather than me picking random properties and no one agreeing with them.
Seeing as the normal realm has a newly implemented boss, perhaps the nether realm could have one as well. This boss could be a banshee, that attacks with it's high pitch screech and drops a cloak that the user could equip which would allow maybe a night vision or something of that sort. This serve as a little more groundwork/detail? Or shall I elaborate more?

So it's a nether boss? I'd still say elaborate more. Drops and stuff probably aren't necessary, but behavior and attacks absolutely are.
Expound on how the scream works, for example. How is that different from, say, a Ghast fireball? Can the Banshee fly? Does it walk? What does it do?

I agree with homicidal panda, it could have a hi-pitched scram attack which cannot be avoided, but can be blocked by a new headgear...

It could either reduce damage by 50% or obliterate it, forcing the banshee to attack with melee.
When at 3/4ths health it could summon 3 zombie pigmen which are already enraged, then at half health it could summon 5 blazes as bodyguards which will start with a 2 heart bonus to their normal health, when at 1/4th health it summons 2 ghasts that will suffer 50% percent damage than normal when hit by their own fireball, to label the ghasts instead of tears in their face (cause it looks like their crying)
they will seem to cry blood, when the banshee dies you hear a scream of agony, followed by a whisper saying "thank you"(as if the banshee thanked u for ending her torture)

I wrote an entire thread about Mob behavior and qualities. Maybe get some ideas there and stick 'em in your Banshee.
