This can go in a Rock or Hole/Mound (CoveredPowerUp), or just lay in plain sight (InGameIcon).

When the Rock is broken (or the Mound dug up), the solver pickz up the Object,
which lookz like the Grim Reaper's sickle .

"I've got the Touch of Death, baby!" "Here. Pull my finger."

That's right, the slightest touch, and the enemy Grunt is history.

The drawback is that the Grunt travels slower ... 800 millisecondz per tile.

Kinda makez one think of South Park (oh my god they killed kenny!), doesn't it?

The amount of time the effect will last dependz on the Level designer;
lazy onez will let the time default (usually 60 secondz);
mean onez will set the time just a little too short to be able to complete the task,
so you have to scramble when the effect wearz off.
