The crone is a hostile mini-boss mob that uses in combat, both in the form of magical weapons as splash or gas brews and in the form of drinkable brews for defense.

A crone pursues the player within 32 blocks and uses brews of varying level in combat, throwing splash brews offensively and drinking brews defensively. On Hard difficulty, the thrown brews have a chance of being gas brews. A crone has an infinite stock of brews.
Crones will throw brews with a variety of effects at their targets, depending on certain conditions surrounding their target.
The lower the crone's health is, the lower their interval of throwing their brews.
A crone may choose to equip and drink a brew each game tick (1⁄20 second) if it is not already drinking a potion. Drinking the brew takes 1.6 seconds, though if it had taken a large amount of damage beforehand, 0.8 seconds, and slows down its moving speed a little. The crone does not attack during this time.
If the crone's target is 64 blocks away, or not within its line of sight, it will teleport near their target every 30 ticks.
Their application of thorn damage also comes from the boss.

Their death sound is a high-pitched Wilhelm scream stock sound.
