Scorpions are Insects in Fable, Fable: The Lost Chapters and Fable Anniversary. They are encountered in the Arena and are one of the weakest monsters in Albion. They are the only creature to not have a natural location.
Description[]
Scorpions are weak creatures and only pose a minor threat. They can be killed with chained Lightning or a single Enflame spell. They lack any potential to do any serious damage even in numbers, and are more of a minor annoyance than an actual enemy. They can be summoned by Wood Nymphs or the deadly Arachanox. They are the third lowest possible category of creatures available for Summon (above wasps and beetles).
According to the book Creatures of Albion Book I scorpions were "bred out of the fires of Bolewood." and that some larger scorpions were occasionally bred to monstrous size in captivity for heroes to fight in the Arena. Arachanox is one such giant scorpion. How it grew to such enormous size is never determined. However, in the book The Arena it is stated that creatures were brought from across Albion to fight Heroes in epic battles.
Types of Scorpions[]
- Normal: The ordinary scorpions are summoned by Wood Nymphs and Arachanox. Nothing too serious to be worrying about. A nice arrow, sword slash, or even a magic spell will depose of them quickly.
- Arachanox: A massive scorpion that Heroes must face in the Arena. The final round of the Arena pits the Hero and Whisper against a giant scorpion named Arachanox. This giant boss attacks with its pincers in wide swings that are difficult to avoid. It also attacks by charging the Hero in a sudden burst, which is nearly impossible to dodge, and by burrowing underground, leaving a small swarm of scorpions behind it. As Arachanox weakens, it will also plunge its stinger into the ground and charge up what is possibly a blast of Will. The only weakness in its thick armour is the face, right between the dangerous pincers and stinger.
