The scroposting replaced its ancestor the hoverlar stinger in Huck Limestone Caverns. It no longer can fly and will walk around on the cave floor with what was once its wings. What's left are its wing membranes which can sense some vibrations in the air; however it will mainly use its legs to pick up vibrations in the floor. They have gone completely blind and have almost no eyes. All of their pigment have disappeared as well and appear pinkish from their red blood.
Once it senses prey it will flip them over and sting it with its sharp cloaca. Like its ancestor its cloaca is not only used for mating and waste disposal but contains poison. It releases this into its prey then it uses its two front "leg-fangs" which hold on to the prey while it consumes it with their elaborate mouth tentacles.
They live alone and only meet to mate. When they will release their genetic information into the cave pools where it will mix and form short chains of soft eggs. These will eventually hatch into young which take care of themselves.
