From D&D Wiki
Scorgon
Foul beasts of the warmer regions of the world, scorgons are mixtures between humans, dragons, and scorpions. They roam around the wastes and deserts, looking for prey to either feast upon or for other scorgons to challenge. Living harsh and brutal lives from birth, scorgons carry a menace with them wherever they go.

Combat
Scorgons prefer to ambush their prey from beneath the surface of the ground. They then attempt to poison their quarry with their stingers and then finish them off with their pincers.
Breath Weapon (Su): Once every 1d4 rounds a scorgon can unleash a bolt of electricity from its mouth as a standard action. Line, 60 ft., reflex half (DC 21). Damage dice equal to HD/2 d6 (10d6).
Damage Reduction (Ex): 20; (magic/-)
Immunity to Electricity (Ex): Scorgons are unharmed by magical or mundane electricity.
Immunity to Poison (Ex): Scorgons are unharmed by magical or mundane poison.
Improved Grab (Ex): When a scorgon hits with its pincer attack it may begin a grapple against an opponent as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. Upon a successful grapple, the pincer deals an additional 2d8+3 damage.
Poison (Ex): When the scorgon successfully hits a target with its stinger it immediately injects them with poison that paralyzes them until cured. Fortitude negates (DC 24). If the target needs to breathe, then after 1 minute it must make fortitude saving throws against suffocation every turn until it can breathe again. If they fail then they suffocate and die.
Rake (Ex): When grappling, the scorgon may make two claw attacks against the grappled enemy for 2d6+7 damage each.
Skills: A scorgon has a +4 racial bonus on Hide and Move Silently checks. It has a +8 racial bonus on Climb checks and can always choose to take 10 on a Climb check, even if rushed or threatened.
Vulnerabilities: Cold +50% damage.
