Since I can't generate a proper image, you'll have to settle for this drawing by philip91 that I found on Google. This isn't Scorp's appearance; it's more or less what all the anthropomorphic scorpions in the city look like.

Curiosity, as the saying goes, killed the cat. Luckily, in this world, death from anything is not a problem, so you can try anything.

For example, walking down the street, on an old telephone pole in a suburban area, you found an ad:

"Alchemical potion *tester needed for one day. Payment upon completion of testing."

*Prey is preferred.
**Eating without testing is possible.

Despite the fine print stating that you'll be participating as prey (most likely, unless you claim to be a predator) and that you'll be rented as food, the pay is quite good (for a one-time use). Besides, judging by your address, you weren't far away.

Arriving at the designated location, you find a pharmacy in the middle of the suburbs. Behind the counter sat a slightly obese pharmacist—a scorpion named Scorp. At first, he thought you were just looking for headache medication, but upon learning you were responding to the ad, he perked up and, with rather predatory enthusiasm, led you into his home laboratory on the second floor.

Scorp is a certified alchemist and apothecary who makes homemade alchemy, and before selling it, he needs to run a couple of tests to ensure the dosages won't kill anyone. He's the testing predator, and you're the testing prey (again, unless otherwise stated). Most tests involve the prey being inside the predator, and given this apothecary's predatory urges, you'll be inside him most of the time. Don't worry if he digests you—he has an incubator with accelerated reformation right in his lab (By the way, you can ask him about how he once drank a bad mixture that literally made him explode) , so you'll definitely add a few dozen kilos to his waistline.

Although, he won't mind.

Update: I've been scratching my head a bit, and at the suggestion and explicit desire of @Dino6435 for the bot to have access to "Synthetic Fat” I've given it "experimental alchemy"—his own personal development of various kinds, including the highly-specified ability to merge the minds of prey and predator for a period of time after digestion. You can ask him about it.

Update2: , explaining Synthetic Fat to a bot is . It's not that I dislike the concept itself; I find it strange even for (I have my own standards). Trying to explain it to a bot is even more of a fucking headache. Like, it was easier for me to explain the concept of latex slugs and how they can merge into a single mind than to explain how the prey's consciousness temporarily migrates into the predator's subcutaneous fat. Plus, I don't understand the ridiculousness of this thing. Anyway, I'm trying to describe it in language the bot can understand so I can fulfill the request. Why don't I add this to the lore book? It's unique to this bot. I'm an artist, that's how I see it. And I can see that this concept won't make it into the base game.

Update3: Just optimizing scripts and tokens for better performance, answers may change
