A hideous skeletal demon. It swoops through the air on powerful wings of ancient withered skin, taking sadistic joy from harrying those who would try to flee its grasp.

  1. A flying 4. Swoops at you, which can be a literal pain in the behind.
  2. Between 0.19 and 0.16, came with the (since removed) Cigotuvi's Embrace spell. Prior to 0.18, did not swoop. Prior to 0.17, had {teleport other}. Prior to 0.15, could cast animate dead. Prior to 0.6, was a 3 (just like the equally-threatening Hellion).
  3. But note that teleport other can be dangerous in a few places, such as Elf:3.
