Sand Titan

A giant scorpion that rules the deep desert with venomous sting and crushing claws.

An abomination of chitin and venom the size of a covered wagon. The sand titan is the undisputed king of the deep desert — nothing challenges it, nothing escapes it, and precious little survives it. Its tail, thick as a tree trunk and tipped with a stinger that drips luminous green venom, arcs overhead with deceptive speed. Each claw can close with enough force to crush plate armor like parchment. The ground trembles when it moves, and the desert itself seems to part before it. Caravans that spot one change their route. The smart ones, anyway.
