A '''scorpion''' is one of the hostile [[:Category:Creature|animals]] in the game. A single scorpion won't cause significant trouble for a healthy [[blockhead]]. They may cause problems for the wounded or when multiple scorpions are encountered, particularly at [[Astronomy#Night|night]]. They were introduced in [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]].

Scorpions are a vivid green color that's relatively easy to see, particularly against desert sand. They have six legs, a tail that curves up to point forward, and blocky pincers in front. They are about one block tall overall.

Scorpions wander the ground aimlessly. Like other [[Category:Creature|creatures]], they do not pass two-high level changes on their own. They will respond to attacks by launching a large drop of [[poison]] at their assailant. This is able to harm [[blockhead]]s several blocks away.

During the day, scorpions do not routinely attack nearby blockheads. Remaining near one or encountering large groups of them is still inadvisable, as they will make occasional attacks and the increased numbers make those attacks more likely.
