Large, huge and giant scorpions are vicious, fearless predators found almost anywhere. Their usual tactic is to attack anything smaller than themselves. The scorpion will try and grab its prey with its huge claws then sting it to death with its tail. While its tail only does 1d4 points of damage the victim must save vs poison or die. The scorpion can use its attacks independently of each other on 3 different targets. Anything that the scorpion kills is taken back to its lair and consumed. It should be noted that the scorpion is not immune to its own poison; if it stings itself it could die.
