Scatha

The  is a mob that has a chance to spawn when mining Hard Stone.

Spawning
They spawn in small tunnels (1 block wide, 2 blocks high) and will spawn within around 3 seconds after an area has been dug out. They spawn around 3-6 times less often than Worms. Tunnels dug by Armadillo Pet cannot spawn Scathas. While spawning, they make a unique squelching sound, alerting players of their presence.

Usage
They have the appearance of the Scatha Pet. They appear as a chain of heads with the same texture of the Scatha Pet. Every hit will remove 1 from their health, similarly to Spooky Festival mobs. They start off with a chain of 10 segments, and decrease by one each hit until killed.

Upon spawning, they will slither away from the player.

Trivia

 * When using the Mole perk, the player will not be able to spawn Scathas because the tunnel dug will not be 1x2. However, if the player mines in the west direction, they will be able to spawn Scathas.
