Creeper

Creepers pathfind toward nearby players and enter a charging state when within attack range, lowering themselves and hissing as a fuse timer counts down. After approximately 1.5 seconds of charging, they detonate in an explosion with a radius of 3.0 blocks and die. They disengage and reset their fuse if the player moves out of range or if they lose line of sight.

Special

Explosive charge attack: enters a charging state when within 3 blocks of a target (or 7 blocks if already charging), counts up a fuse timer for 1.5 seconds, then creates a 3.0-radius explosion centered on the creeper before self-destructing.
