Coven Scouts are recurring antagonists of The Owl House. They are members of the Emperor's Coven, often seen patrolling the Boiling Isles or participating in various missions when led by one of their superiors, the Guard Captains.
Appearance
The Coven Scout uniform of the Emperor's Coven consists of a dark gray long-sleeved shirt with brown gloves and a brown belt with a gold buckle, followed by black harem pants and pointed brown boots. On their heads, members wear a white cowl with a pointed hood and hide their faces behind a light gray bird-like mask resembling masks worn by plague doctors, 17th century physicians who treated victims of the Bubonic Plague in certain European countries. Coven Scouts appear to have slight variations in appearance, with some members possessing different body builds and physical features.
Coven Scouts are usually armed with any kind of weapons, but mostly spears, though can use various types of magic due to being part of the Emperor's Coven.
Background
Like Coven Guards, Coven Scouts can often be seen in various government-operated facilities, such as the Conformatorium or various Police Precincts as guards or as law enforcement officers. However, unlike their Guard peers, Coven Scouts can also been seen outside of cities and often participate in missions assigned by their superiors, such as raids or recruitments.
As part of preparation for the Day of Unity, Coven Scouts raided the Owl House and confiscated everything inside; some items were later stolen back by Luz and Eda. When the draining spell began taking affect during the day of Unity, some of the Coven Scouts try to flee the area after realizing its true effect, only to be blocked by Abomatons.
