Skotizo

Skotizo is a demonic demi-boss located beneath the Catacombs of Kourend. Accessing its lair requires the use of a dark totem on the altar found in the centre of the Catacombs; one dark totem permits only one attempt.

History
Skotizo was a general of Zamorak during the God Wars, but he was often outshined by Zamorak's more notable generals, such as Thammaron and K'ril Tsutsaroth.

After he and his soldier's cunning at the Battle of Carrallangar, Zamorak personally gave them their next mission, something he rarely did. The mission was to lead an expedition to recover a certain artefact in the Karamjan Temple found within the Kharazi Jungle. Skotizo was delighted by being assigned the mission and set out as soon as possible to please his god.

Reaching the Temple after a few days, Skotizo and his squad had managed to reach the Temple's centre after navigating a large maze. Now in possession of the artefact, Skotizo betrayed his squad, taking the artefact's power for himself and decimating the expedition team.

Skotizo managed to avoid Zamorak's wrath and traveled to Zeah, where he used the artefact to summon a large variety of monsters, creating what is known today as the Catacombs of Kourend. Today, Skotizo remains deep beneath the Catacombs.

Drops
Skotizo will always drop one shard, with a rare chance to drop an additional 1-4.
