Aqrabuamelu
The scorpion, or Aqrabuamelu, is a hideous creature from ancient Mesopotamia, particularly from Babylonian creation myths. They’re a cross between a scorpion and a man, with a scorpion’s body and a person’s face, torso, and arms. Because they are hideous and were created to fight the Gods, they serve as guardians and occasionally warn travelers who are in danger.
