For that trait, fine. But, organisms have loads of traits affected by
loads of different things. I'd go with my idea just because it allows a
reason for more silly chaotic features, and perhaps a way for characters
to do something about it.
BTW Rory, those eggs...rumour has it that this is a special caste of
scorpion man which looks like eggs. They are actually functionally hand
grenades, being stockpiled...
I am just starting to get this image of the scorpion men as neonazi
extremists stockpíling arms for the day they finally decide to run
everyone else out of town.
