Scorpion (Designed by Peter Engel, Folded by Me)

The scorpion is tough, loyal, and persistent. Its poisonous sting is deadly. However, it moves rather slowly, and cannot defend itself from fast-moving enemies. Despite its deadly aspect, the scorpion seeks long term alliance and will defend its allies and their mission to the death.

Give the scorpion to thank a loved one for their longstanding loyalty and service.

Made from black and red tissue paper, laminated into one square sheet using konyaku starch.

Figure 1. Deadly from the front, the scorpion is slow to manoeuvre. It may be vulnerable to attack from behind, and has less protection on the underbelly.
