Scorpion Dragon

## Base Stats

It has the appearance and characteristics of a scorpion. Its large eyes and sharp teeth are a great advantage when observing an opponent. There is a venom gland at the end of its stinger, and its front feet are pincers. Its clawed forepaws and sharp tail are very advantageous in combat as it can instantly grab the opponent and paralyze them with its stinger. It waits on rocks or in caves, and when it sees tasty prey, it quickly captures it using the stinger in its tail. If you are stung by a Scorpion Dragon, you may feel a tingling sensation, but over time you may experience hallucinations and even paralysis.

It mainly appears at night, but it rarely appears during the day to startle people. It is fearless and has a habit of trying to correct anything that goes against its beliefs.

## Story

### In the Midst of Carelessness

In the night when everyone sleeps, Scorpion Dragon goes hunting to find prey. Scorpion Dragon prepared to hunt elsewhere because other fellow dragons informed it that there were many young individuals in this area because they avoided hunting to prevent endangerment. It sharpened its pincers and checked that its stinger moved well.

But when it passed the area, there was an incredible sight. A cowardly Dragon, who overheard the story, made the area a mess.

"What's the benefit of protecting these weak prey?"

The other dragon smiled.

"Hahaha. Scorpion Dragon, you went to the water. I wanted share your information a little bit. Why do you hunt alone every day?"

Scorpion Dragon maintained a calm face without shaking at all. When the response did not come out, the other dragon was embarrassed and was afraid and ran away from the expression of Scorpion Dragon, who looked at it coldly.

Scorpion Dragon has three beliefs to keep: to not stop doing the right thing, to not be swayed by others, and to not stop. That's why the other dragon's actions were very annoying for it. The dragon acted bad to it. It was over for the other dragon because Scorpion Dragon was acting cold to it without attacking, but the other dragon did not know what it did was wrong for weak dragons. Scorpion Dragon hoped that the cowardly dragon would never do this again.

The next day, the other dragon no longer appeared in the village. According to the rumor, the dragon did not wake up even when sun was out, and it could not happen to the strong poison. Do you know what happened? Scorpion Dragons move in broad daylight when they're hunting something they really want.

## Evolution

### Egg

It is an egg that gives a tingling sensation.

The red eggshell has green spotted patterns. It may look like an ordinary dragon egg at first glance, but it is poisonous. The red areas are okay, but the green spots should be avoided. Mild toxins circulate on the green spots. Touching it doesn't affect you, but you may feel a tingling sensation on your skin.

### Hatch

From the moment of hatching, it moves solemnly and cautiously.

It usually raises its stinger on its tail and hits its pincers together making a crackling sound. This shows a willingness to fight at any time. The closer you get, the higher its tail goes, and the faster the sound of its claws is heard.

### Hatchling

Unlike hatches, hatchlings go out to hunt prey at night.

As its two front pincers become larger and stronger, it can grab its desired target more clearly. The size of its stinger also increases and a greater amount of poison can be stored, making hunting for long periods of time more advantageous. Because it has reached a physical condition that allows it to secure a lot of prey, it often goes hunting at night when the creatures are off guard.

### Adult

It uses the stinger on its tail and its large pincers to present a difficult battle to its opponent.

It feels like a tricky battle because you have to take care of both its pincers and its poisonous tail. If you are stung by its stinger, paralysis symptoms will worsen over time, and if you are trapped by its pincers, you will be unable to move. Moreover, because it is good at reading the opponent's movements and patterns, it shows attack patterns that are not easily recognized by the opponent. It goes hunting at night when the temperature drops rather than during the day when the sun is up. It has clear visibility even at night, so it can hide itself and then take down its target in an instant.
