The Stymphalian Bat is a Hardmode enemy that spawns in pairs of 2 in the Marble Caves. They fly and attempt to swoop at the player to deal contact damage. They will occasionally dash towards the player and if they collide with a tile while dashing, they will lose all momentum and get stuck in place for a brief moment. Upon contact, they have a chance to inflict the Bleeding debuff.

Enchantment

There is a 1/15 (6.67%) chance for a Stymphalian Bat to become enchanted, increases to 1/5 (1/20%) if the player has the Heresy buff. While enchanted, its maximum health increases by 50%, allows it to drop Olympium Tokens upon death, and gives the enemy one of the following effects.

Image	Name	Description
	Asclepius	Fires 3 Orbs of Asclepius that each heal an injured enemy for 40 health. If there are any injured enemies within 37.5 blocks, it will use this ability every 2.7 seconds.
	Hecate	Fires a Rune of Hecate towards the player every 5 seconds, which passes through tiles and deals the same amount of damage as the enchanted enemy.
	Hestia	Sends out a beam to up to 3 nearby enchantable enemies, creating a triplet of Runes of Hestia around them, which increase their damage by 20% and defense by 15.
	Nemesis	Spawns a Sword of Nemesis above the enemy, which swings at the player 3 times before vanishing. Each swing does the same amount of damage as the enchanted enemy.
