They call me SCARETHROW. I am stuck in the ground.
Throw things at me... and hear a strange sound!

— MR. SCARETHROW

MR. SCARETHROW is a character and NPC in OMORI. He is encountered inside a special area within the JUNKYARD, and can be attacked by using KEL's tag ability.

PROFILE[]

APPEARANCE[]

MR. SCARETHROW is a sentient scarecrow with blonde hair and a straw hat. He notably wears an orange and white shirt tucked together, and has various hula hoops donned on his "arms" and hat.

He also has a red target drawn on the center of his body. Like with MR. SCARECROW and SCAREBRO, the two scarecrows he bears a resemblance to, MR. SCARETHROW is held together by a wooden stake and multiple straws.

PERSONALITY[]

At first glance, MR. SCARETHROW is shown to be an amicable individual, willing to talk to the party about his own life. However, when KEL continuously uses him as target practice, MR. SCARETHROW will become irritated at his actions, to the point of begging him to stop while recounting the times people have bullied him by throwing random objects at him.

He also occasionally thinks back about his past, lamenting over how cruel his fate is, and wishes for a better life than the one he currently has. In the end, MR. SCARETHROW resigns to his miserable lifestyle and accepts being used as target practice for anyone who comes across him.

STORY[]

MR. SCARETHROW can be found in a special area within the outskirts of the JUNKYARD. It can be accessed by entering a trash bin located left of where the KEYMAGNET was originally standing. The entrance to the area is at first blocked by two GATOR GUYS, both only leaving once KEL uses his tag ability for the first time.

When inside the cave, interacting with MR. SCARETHROW will have him invite the party to throw things at him. This can only be done with KEL, as he is the only party member that has a throwing tag ability. Doing so will lead to him producing multiple sound effects while monologuing about himself.

Continuing to pelt MR. SCARETHROW with various projectiles will prompt him to speak more dialogue, ranging from rambling about his past to desperately begging KEL to stop. Doing this for a total of 68 times will exhaust his initial dialogue, prompting SCARETHROW to repeat his first line of dialogue. This will yield the They call me SCARETHROW. achievement.
