She later may have raided the [[Lost city of night|abandoned Night Kingdom]] as well, for the SandWings were suggested to have done so by [[Darkstalker]] when he noticed the treasure there was almost completely depleted.

Scorpion was also shown greedy. She forced [[Jerboa]], the first known SandWing animus, into casting many animus spells, such as granting herself longevity. [[Jerboa III]] mentions that she even tortured the original Jerboa in order to get what she wanted.
