#i mean it really kinda mostly is like a real human they cannot regrow limbs

I love thinking of L.L.'s properties and the like. Anyway I think when hurt the deeper the would goes the faster it'll heal. Their organs will close up faster than a cut on their skin will. This unfortunately includes burns which makes them pretty weak to fire.

hope this isn't a weird question, but..... i am a bit lost about the whole owynn getting his stinger chomped off during the fight with freddy.......

what exactly happened? (not in the fight i mean. you mentioned freddy getting stung i think but then that would mean he got stung right before he chomped on the stinger? because otherwise once it's already broken it can't sting him)

and in your art i see future (or, well, current) owynn depicted with a stinger. but i thought scorpions couldn't grow their stingers back?

sooo is the current stinger on owynn a fake or artificial one? or did owynn happen to have 2 stingers (that is a thing i think. its very rare between scorpions like 1 in every 5000)? or did it actually grow back due to owynn not being an actual literal scorpion and more of a sort of anthropomorphic version of one (much like the rest of the characters)?

HOPE THIS DOESN'T COME OFF AS RUDE BTW im just really curious............ and lost...

uh uh uh hi very good questions! Not rude at all dont worry bout it !! i love questionsi love interaction i love this lol anyways

yes they were stung before the stinger was bitten off, thaaat is the correct assumption.

And yeah, yeah ur right that would be the case normally!

However comma due to the scorpion bit being fused and scaled up with the human part we took some liberties with anatomy to make stuff work given how on paper they are completely opposite things. 

Small scorpions can and have shown the ability to regenerate though to a smaller scale, and you would be right to think that their tails don't grow back! But that is mostly because they die too fast before it can actually grow back, either lifespan wise or just because of medical stuff that they cannot prevent or treat because they r an animal, however when we scaled scorpions up and made them more human like and all of that jazz we exaggerated some stuff so that it could work anatomically, stuff like the position of the stinger, how venom works, and also as you've pointed out regeneration :D 

it mostly stems from wanting to create some common ground between arachnids since all arthropods being so different from eachother is sort of an anatomical nightmare when you compare their differences with the differences between a bear and a fox.

So we kinda yoinked a fun fact about the poster child of arachnids, (being spiders), and spread their ability to regrow limbs to all arachnids, which isn't too crazy since scorpions CAN regenerate just at a way slower pace.

So that alongside, the fact that he has medicine, he is bigger, and he has human attributes, his regeneration is boosted a lot, but it did take him some years to fully grow it back, that's actually why he started braiding it into his hair :9

if you want more specifics you can ask pia he's the arthropod nerd 😃 @threepoint14art THIS GUY KNOWS ARTHROPODS IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER ARTHROPOD QUESTIONS ASK THEMMM

HI PIA <3

long story short: Owynns current stinger is a real!
