Level: [[Toxic Caves]]
Fought by: Sonic

Scorpius is a boss from Sonic Spinball, found in Toxic Caves. A giant mechanical scorpion with Robotnik's face (and apparently his distaste for movement, too), Scorpius generally just sits at the top of the level, periodicly spitting drops of green toxicity out of his stinger. His tail is immune to attacks and the body is the only vulnerable spot.

Attack Pattern

Scorpius will turn his tail back and forth, dropping acid that will repel Sonic back down to the entrance to his lair. After accessing this area, Sonic must jump into the space between Scorpius' tail and his body, which will cause him to rebound multiple times. After taking enough damage, Scorpius' tail will fall off, leaving Scorpius defenseless. Note that if Sonic manages to hit all the slots above Scorpius, he will do heavy damage to him by initiating a rockslide.
