Death spawns may be summoned when players are fighting Nechryaels or their greater variant; when attacked, they may summon up to two death spawns to help attack the player. While having an extremely low max hit of 2, they are able to hit through protection prayers. Unlike their summoners, death spawns have no Slayer requirement in order to be harmed. Players who use Guthan's equipment may prefer to heal on death spawns rather than Nechyraels due to their lower combat stats. After being summoned by a Nechryael, the death spawn will despawn after some time has passed.
