Abilities: A horrible abomination that's said to be one of Asmodeus' many vile experiments. The Scourgecrows are unholy combinations of rotted flesh, insect parts, and bone, forming together a disgusting mass that somewhat resembles a giant scarecrow. They often have many limbs, and usually all of them can be utilized as a deadly weapon. These demons give the appearence of rotted ants if they were fifty feet tall and could crush you under a few tons of force. As most things in the Blightscape do, Scourgecrows give off a terrible scent that makes it difficult to breath without the aid of a respiratory filtering device.

These giants are few and far in-between, and perhaps maybe only a dozen of them exist. Scourgecrows live deep underground, or when they're hunting, will disguise themselves as a pile of debris until an unsuspecting traveler passes by. Oh, they don't eat flesh, but actually feed off of misery, much like their creator. Because of this the shambling masses seem semi-sentient, at least enough to understand how to kill their victims in the slowest way possible.

Scourgecrows are very difficult to destroy, as it can reattach any lost limbs and disassemble and reassemble itself at will. However, they are each powered by a cursed piece of jewelry that when destroyed, will end the demon.

Miscellaneous Notes: The cursed "heart" of the Scourgecrow often glows a bright purple for whatever reason, giving the monster an ominous glow.
