Description

Giant scorpions are vicious predators which are likely to be found even in relatively cold places such as dungeons due to the adaptability of these mutations. They are likely to attack any creature which approaches. The monster seeks to grab prey with its huge pincers while its segmented tail lashes forward to sting its victim to death with poison. The giant scorpion can fight up to three opponents at once. Note that the scorpion's poison kills it if it accidentally stings itself. Creatures killed are dragged to the scorpion's lair to be eaten.
