Introducing... Black Scorpion!

Listen up! This is Black Scorpion introducing himself! So pay attention!

So yeah, I’m Black Scorpion. I’ve held the most awesome job working on the powers team for some months now, alongside Castle and Synapse. I’ve been working on a bunch of things I can’t really talk about... but I can say I’ve been delving into the Mission Architect Custom Critter powers most recently. I’ll also be tackling Mission Architect powers issues from here on out. I’ve been really impressed by the team here and looking forward to what we’ll put out together.

I am super stoked at the chance to introduce myself to the community. I was a long time player before I became a dev, and I have to say, what a rush! I’m very excited to see how the rest of this year goes- can’t wait!

So it’s very cool to officially be here on the boards and just know that you’ll be seeing me around.

Your bud in the high-powered armor,

Black Scorpion

Welcome to the madhouse.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

Hey, all they need to do is offer to weld something cool onto him. And pretend to be scared when he shouts "FEAR ME!"

Scorpion's a guy with simple tastes.

Maybe he went Rogue. *ducks flying tomatoes*

Good to have you aboard, BS! looking forward to any and all positive effects your work will have on the Ma power system ... especially if it eventually allows me to fight a proper version of my Crab Spider doppelganger. As it is, he doesn't last very long just using an Arachnos rifle and a few melee spider leg attacks.

One day, a scorpion looked around at the mountain where he lived and decided that he wanted a change. So he set out on a journey through the forests and hills. He climbed over rocks and under vines and kept going until he reached a river.
The river was wide and swift, and the scorpion stopped to reconsider the situation. He couldn't see any way across. So he ran upriver and then checked downriver, all the while thinking that he might have to turn back.

Suddenly, he saw a frog sitting in the rushes by the bank of the stream on the other side of the river. He decided to ask the frog for help getting across the stream.

"Hellooo Mr. Frog!" called the scorpion across the water, "Would you be so kind as to give me a ride on your back across the river?"

"Well now, Mr. Scorpion! How do I know that if I try to help you, you wont try to kill me?" asked the frog hesitantly.

"Because," the scorpion replied, "If I try to kill you, then I would die too, for you see I cannot swim!"

Now this seemed to make sense to the frog. But he asked. "What about when I get close to the bank? You could still try to kill me and get back to the shore!"

"This is true," agreed the scorpion, "But then I wouldn't be able to get to the other side of the river!"

"Alright then...how do I know you wont just wait till we get to the other side and THEN kill me?" said the frog.

"Ahh...," crooned the scorpion, "Because you see, once you've taken me to the other side of this river, I will be so grateful for your help, that it would hardly be fair to reward you with death, now would it?!"

So the frog agreed to take the scorpion across the river. He swam over to the bank and settled himself near the mud to pick up his passenger. The scorpion crawled onto the frog's back, his sharp claws prickling into the frog's soft hide, and the frog slid into the river. The muddy water swirled around them, but the frog stayed near the surface so the scorpion would not drown. He kicked strongly through the first half of the stream, his flippers paddling wildly against the current.

Halfway across the river, the frog suddenly felt a sharp sting in his back and, out of the corner of his eye, saw the scorpion remove his stinger from the frog's back. A deadening numbness began to creep into his limbs.

"You fool!" croaked the frog, "Now we shall both die! Why on earth did you do that?"

The scorpion shrugged, and did a little jig on the drownings frog's back.

"I could not help myself. It is my nature."

Then they both sank into the muddy waters of the swiftly flowing river.

Self destruction - "Its my Nature", said the Scorpion...

You are a villain.

Why do the other devs hate you ?

Did you steal War Witch's cookies or something ?
