Skotizo is a demonic boss located beneath the Catacombs of Kourend. Accessing his 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, which makes him a sporadic boss.

He is primarily known for his guaranteed hard clue scroll drops, along with a very high chance of elite clue scrolls.

Skotizo can be substituted for both Black demon and Greater demon kills during Slayer tasks. Skotizo's Lair is part of the Catacombs of Kourend, and does count as such for the purpose of Konar slayer tasks. He cannot be damaged with a ring of recoil.

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. He is also Zalcano's brother.

After the cunning he and his soldiers showed at the Battle of Carrallanger, 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. This resulted in a furious Zamorak placing responsibility on Zalcano, inflicting a curse that would slowly turn her into stone until she could bring him before her god to face retribution.

Skotizo managed to avoid Zamorak's wrath during this time and discovered Great Kourend to the far west, while his sister believed that he had fled to the lands of Tirannwn. Using the power of the artefact, Skotizo managed to call a large amount of creatures to his side and set up in Kourend's underground, now the present-day Catacombs of Kourend. His arrival was noted by the Dragonkin Karuulm, though he had opted to avoid confrontation and left Skotizo alone, who was likely unaware of his presence. Roughly 200 years after the end of a civil war in Kourend, Skotizo encountered a human adventurer in his chamber who was investigating mysterious disappearances, and slew them.
