Nice Creeper Tweaks
by NiceRon
Nice Creeper Tweaks changes how Creepers behave on a server, with a chance for some to spawn charged with a random potion effect.
What it does
Creepers spawned with this mod have a chance to carry a random potion effect, which makes them less predictable than vanilla Creepers. Behavior is controlled by config files, and the mod is written to work on a PaperMC server or a fork such as Purpur, provided allow-non-player-entities-on-scoreboards is set to true in paper.yml. Only the server needs it, while players may leave it out. Released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, and it is open source.
Key features
Potion-charged spawns
Some Creepers spawn with a random potion effect, changing how each encounter plays out.
Config-driven behavior
Settings in the config files control the spawn chance and the effects, so server owners can adjust them.
PaperMC compatibility
Works on PaperMC and forks like Purpur once the scoreboard setting in paper.yml is enabled.

What the author says
In addition to that they have a chance to spawn with a random Potion Effect or as a charged Creeper. But if you are playing on a PaperMC Server (or a PaperMC Fork like Purpur) make sure to set allow-non-player-entities-on-scoreboards in your paper config files to true in order for everything to work properly.
