Scamps are a common Daedric creature, known for their simple-mindedness and cowardliness. Though smaller and weaker than most other Daedra, they can still be a dangerous opponent, especially in large numbers. Their lack of intellect also means they are often used by conjurers to perform mundane tasks and act as messengers.
