The region is divided into three code-named sections: *   **Sargas**: An open plain. *   **Lesath**: A series of fractured steps and trenches. *   **Antares**: A large tar lake.   A trail of unfinished [Cicada](Cicada) debris can be followed from the top of Sargas, through Lesath, and down to the bottom of Antares.   South of Sargas is a drained reservoir that once held tar, which has since spilled out and flooded the rest of the region. Presently, this is where the [Collector Leviathan](Collector Leviathan) is located, as well as a small meeting of four [Waterslugs](Waterslug).   With the exception of the reservoir, the entire region is currently beyond the Early Access barrier, meaning that attempted exploration will bring with it the threat of [Shiver Leviathans](Shiver Leviathan).  +![An early tar cascade](Scorpius Tar Cascade.png)+![A trench](Scorpius Trench.png)+![A large wreck on top a tar lake](Scorpius Wreck.png)+![Fog-disabled overview of the entire region](Scorpius No Fog.png)+  ### Future In the future, Scorpius will be home to many more lifeforms including, and perhaps most notably, a large population of [Great Jaws](Great Jaw). The Collector Leviathan currently found at the reservoir will be moved, likely to a deeper part of the region.   Based on concept art and developer videos, the [Axum](Axum) will have had a strong presence in the region, including a large dam in Sargas that was made to restrict the flow of tar. The dam has seemingly since been sabotaged.   In addition to a wreck containing [Bullfrog Workmech](Bullfrog Workmech) fragments, the [BigSub](BigSub) itself will also be found somewhere in this region, waiting to be restored.  -## Gallery- -### In-game-![An early tar cascade](Scorpius Tar Cascade.png)-![A trench](Scorpius Trench.png)-![A large wreck on top a tar lake](Scorpius Wreck.png)-![Fog-disabled overview of the entire region](Scorpius No Fog.png)- -### Concept Art ![Concept Art of a biome within the Scorpius region](Collector_Biome_concept_art.png)   ## Trivia-*   All code-names for this region are based around the constellation [Scorpius](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scorpius), with [Sargas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_Scorpii), [Lesath](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upsilon_Scorpii), and [Antares](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antares) being three of its stars.+*   All code-names for this region are based around the constellation Scorpius, with Sargas, Lesath, and Antares being three of its stars.
