Overview[]
While not threatening alone, especially since it's possible to perform a lunging Deathblow by jumping on them like against Lizards, they are mostly found in groups inside cramped rooms.
Since they use almost exclusively Burn-inflicting attacks, it's best to come prepared with Dousing Powder, Ministry Dousing Powder or the Withered Red Gourd.
