"MFW Lich is like 'HAAIIII WHATCHA DOOOIN' and I'm like 'IM SLEEPING, LICH, GO AWAY'"- Bob The Necromancer

The Black Lich is one of Bob's minions that appears in the game after the Big Plaque and before the Flying Squid.

He seems to be based on a fictional creature called a Lich. He is wearing an old black cloak, has the ability to float in the air and shoot small green Energy Balls of Doom. The Black Lich also works in the Arcane Laboratory. Hell's brightest mind, the most potent evil wizard the underworld has ever seen, his power is near infinite; but everything comes at a price, tuition in hell is ab-so-lu-te-ly bonkers.

To have access to The Black Lich one needs to have The Big Plague at least at level one.

Trivia

• A Lich is undead creature. Often such a creature is the result of a transformation, as a powerful magician or king striving for eternal life uses spells or rituals to bind his intellect to his phylactery and thereby achieve a form of immortality.
• The Lich has a crush on the Succubus (Devil Deal), but don't tell anyone.
  • In the title screen of Bob's Special Day Event, he is the only minion that looks at Succubus and Carl standing together, while frowning. The frown can be his default facial expression, though.
• The Lich is the only minion who has monologue and a job besides destroying buildings/bosses for Bob.
• It can be concluded from the skills Lunch Money, Small-time Bullying and Intimidator that the Black Lich is a bully from school. The Lich has also an urban slang according to the quotes.
• The quote "Hey! Listen!" is a reference to the fairy Navi of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. She is known to be one of the most annoying characters in video game history.
• The quotes "We will be in touch" and "Remember... we will be watching" may be references to XCOM: Enemy Unknown; both lines are used by the Council Spokesman at the end of monthly debriefings.
• Halloween 2016 The Black Lich's costume is a reference to Disney's Peter Pan.
• Halloween 2017 The Black Lich's costume is a pair of Groucho glasses.
• Reference to quote from movie "Contact", and more recently, the Starcraft Archon.
