Sand beetle

The sand beetle appears to be some sort of giant insect. It looks a little like some misshapen scorpion, but its tail is not as long as a scorpion's would be, and it flares like the tail of a lobster rather than ending in a poison sting. Its segmented body is wide, supported by six short multi-jointed legs. A dull red chitinous shell covers most of its body, and a broad carapace protects its head. Two massive claws provide the creature with formidable weapons.
