Death Scythes are enemies spawned by Death that either stay stationary for a few seconds before accelerating toward Isaac or immediately home in on him. They have 50 HP in total, but spawn with only 15 HP. They deal 1 full heart of damage. If Death is killed, any Death Scythes he summoned are immediately destroyed.
Variations[]
Ultra Death Scythe[]

Ultra Death Scythes are enemies spawned by Ultra Death; they are larger than regular Death Scythes and travel in one direction towards Ultra Death's position a brief moment after spawning, continuing until they travel off-screen or are killed. Unlike regular Death Scythes, they only deal half a heart of damage.
When spawned in manually they remain stationary and only deal contact damage if walked into.
