History

Scorpio are notoriously hard to find on Quatros, but one was found by Witch Doctor and implanted with a spike of corrupted Quaza. This Scorpio began protecting Witch Doctor, though it despised doing so.

The Scorpio, teamed with an enslaved Waspix, attacked Alpha 1 Team members William Furno, Julius Nex and Jimi Stringer while they traversed the jungle on the way to the temple serving as Witch Doctor's base of operations. The Scorpio repeatedly overpowered the three Heroes, and they eventually fled the area after defeating the Waspix. However, the scorpion gave chase, pursuing them all the way to the temple. Furno was able to remove the the beast's corrupted Quaza spike, and it attacked the Witch Doctor, seeking revenge for its enslavement. Witch Doctor directed the Raw-Jaw under his command to fight the scorpion. After a brief battle, the Raw-Jaw eventually dispatched the Scorpio, tossing it off a ledge to the jungle floor.

Abilities and Traits

Despite their large stature, Scorpio are adept at slipping through small spaces. They have a stinger tail and a mounted ball shooter for capturing prey, which utilizes pure Quaza. It also bears heavy, spiked armor plating, and powerful pincers. Scorpio are highly intelligent, and are capable of speech. They are incredibly fast, and sometimes use the pincers on their mandibles to capture prey if close.
