The '''Armored Scorpion''', also known as the '''Armorpion''', is a recurring monster in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'' series]].
 
The '''Armoured Scorpion''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first introduced in {{DQ4}}.


==Description==
==Description==
The Armored Scorpion, just like its namesake, is a scorpion that is heavily armored. As such, its defenses are higher than the surrounding enemies.
The Armoured Scorpion, naturally, is a [[Bug family|scorpion]] that is heavily armoured. As such, its defenses are higher than the surrounding enemies. Its body is covered in yellow armor plates, giving it the appearance of a knight, and it attacks using both its pincers and its stinging tail. These fearsome arachnids are not to be taken lightly, as they are some of the first enemies the player encounters that are capable of landing [[desperate attack]]s.
