=== Appearance ===
The Scrake appears as a tall male wearing bloody medical scrubs, an earloop mask, and a rubber glove on his left hand. A chainsaw is in place of his right hand.

==== Events ====
During the [[Twisted Christmas]] event, the Scrake was reskinned into Jack Frost (See picture). 
For the [[Summer Sideshow]] event, the Scrake was reskinned into "the Incredible Man Monkey", a psychotic man in a giant cymbal monkey costume bearing big, beady, demented eyes, quoting lines from psychotic movies and making circus puns such as: "Organs for the grinder, Organs for the Organ Grinder!", "This sh*t is bananas", "Mother says I'm allowed to have the applesauce.", "and not a single f*ck was given that day.". For the [[Halloween Sideshow]] event, the Scrake was reskinned into the "Extraordinary Rabbit," a man in a rabbit costume with a psychotic grin and a pink-and-white shirt and pink-and-white shorts, it is based off the Man Monkey. During the [[Hillbilly Horror]] Event, a newer version of the Halloween event, the Scrake was reskinned into a lumberjack with a boar's head, known as Cousin Otis. The boar's head more than likely represents his sexual nature, as he makes sexual quotes such as: "I bet you squeal like a pig *squeal*" and "Them panties, *snort* take 'em off." Also to represent his pig-like nature as he will often squeal or snort.  All three times, he retained the Chainsaw arm, apart from the Twisted Christmas event, in which the Scrake utilizes a frost saw.

=== Behaviour ===
The Scrake's behaviour and abilities are similar to the [[Gorefast]]'s; it picks a target based on proximity, and may change target based on the actions of the players to charge and chase them. After spawning, it walks at a slow pace towards their target. The main difference is its conditions for charging players, which is based primarily on its health and the current difficulty of the game; the harder the difficulty and lower the player count, the more likely they are to charge the players upon enduring damage. As alive player count in the map is dwindling the new spawning Scrakes will have their health backscaled and become more susceptible to rage at any weak attack that doesn't kill them.

A Scrake, starts charging when it reaches 50% health threshold and doesn't slow down unless flinched or stunned; in [[Difficulty#Suicidal|high difficulties]], they start their enraged charge at 75% health threshold.  Its modes of attack are very similar to those of the [[Chainsaw]] that players can carry, and it favours the powerful swinging attack when something angers him. When enraged, he rushes at target, slams his Chainsaw twice  followed by a mow down to the target's guts. At this state, trying to get away from Scrake is not recommended and ill advised as each step you take away from Scrake will result in him catching up and slashing his Chainsaw twice again which deals more damage than his mow down state. Before the enraged state they show signs of losing temper, as they lose their 10% of maximum health or more, they do small dashes to nearby players instead of waiting them to get to their attack distance then get to calm down a while, until picking another target that provokes him.

In original KFmod of UT2k4 sometimes, the Scrake can say humourous quotes such as "April Fools." and "I like trousers".

=== Historic data ===
{{KF-mod notice|s|specimen}}
The Scrake's behaviour was almost identical in the ''Killing Floor'' mod (the scrake could not "rage" but it could grab the player), however, there were several key differences in its appearance. The most noticeable was its face, which resembled classic depictions of Frankenstein's monster with its skin even bearing greenish tinge, beneath all the blood. Its chainsaw was attached to its left arm instead of its right, and it wore what resembled a grimy butcher's apron instead of the medical scrubs and face mask worn by its successor.
