A Fire Scorpion[1]

Fire Scorpions (or Baalite Scorpions) are a type of creature found in the Galaxy.[1]

Native to the Baal System, they are aggressive scorpions that are far larger than their Terran counterparts. Averaging ten to eleven feet long, others are known to grow far greater in size. Their thick carapace serves as armor against projectile weapons and their tail is capable of punching through armor to deliver its lethal toxin. The toxin burns the victim from the inside out, cooking the victim alive. Although native to deserts and hot climates, they seem to have the ability to adapt to nearly any environment. Some have been seen surviving inside Blackstone Fortresses.[1]
