From the waist up, a scorpionfolk appears to be a four-armed humanoid covered with black armor. From the waist down, it looks like an enormous scorpion. One pair of arms ends in vicious claws, while the other pair end in humanoid hands. A scorpionfolk has waxy, gray skin, and its eyes are entirely black.
Scorpionfolk speak Common and Terran.
Scorpionfolk use major image to create illusions of small oases or wells, luring travelers into traps. They then charge their opponents, attacking with their lances. Any who survive are trampled and attacked with stingers, claws, and any melee weapons carried by the creatures. In addition to their claws and sting, scorpionfolk may use falchions, lances, spears, scimitars, short bows, or crossbows.
Reflex half DC 20. The save DC is Strength-based.
A scorpionfolk delivers its poison (Fortitude save DC 17) with each successful sting attack. The initial and secondary damage is 1d4 points of Dexterity damage.
1/day - major image; 2/day - mirror image, Caster level 10th; save DC 12 + spell level.
