Necromancer

The Necromancer is a Hardmode enemy found in the post-Plantera Dungeon. It is most common in areas backed by Brick Walls. These are identified by the related Faction Flag, the Necromantic Sign.

Necromancers attack by rapidly firing beams of purple light at the player which reflect off walls multiple times. They travel at an extremely high velocity, being fired nearly instantly, and inflict the Slow debuff. Necromancers teleport to a different location on-screen after firing six times or when being hit.
