Name: He, or they, don't have one and don't remember how they were called before coming to the Lab. But they had often been mocked by guards and scientists by being called "Splitface", referring to the merging of the siamese twin's faces.
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Mutation: They were mutated with a scorpion. As a result, they can go through impressively long periods of time without any food and can resist up to 2 hours underwater. Along with that, they can withstand extreme cold or extreme heat, although fire is not something they are immune to at all. Being a form of arachnid, they can climb walls and even ceilings as long as the surface has pores and is uneven in texture.
Weaknesses: Sight. Although they can see forms and colors fine, it is very, very poor. Instead, they rely on their very keen sense of hearing, smell, and the vibrations other creatures release while moving, which they perfectly detect through the hairs on their legs. Although there are rumors about scorpions committing suicide when surrounded by fire, 'Splitface' proved not to have done this. But if unable or too desperate to find his way out, he begins to convulse.

Personality: 'Splitface' has an extremely complex behavior, being the merging of two separate sentients and having no memory of ever being human. Although they can talk, they communicate between themselves through clicks and stridulations using their pincer-like chelicerae, folded and hidden behind their teeth. It's easier to make them sit still for a day than to provoke them to talk, however. Knowing not how to control their bestial instincts or to difference them from their normal behavior, abuse, maim and murder are things they are completely indifferent to. Should they encounter a corpse, it is far more likely they'd consume it than be startled by it, as they have too fed on live people.
Fears: They are somewhat arsonphobic.
History: The twins don't remember anything about the life they had before being dragged into the Lab against their will. They had been drugged with a very strong amnesiac before entering, and when they had regained their consciousness later, all they knew was that they didn't look human, and thus assumed they had never been one.
The experiment for which they were used for was one of the last before the Lab had unexpectedly exploded. However, it had been a complete failure.
The siamese's bodies had mostly rejected the scorpion DNA the researchers used, but as was obvious by their appearance, their bodies had been forced into accepting it through all kinds of vile chemicals and practices. This had been an awful mistake.
Instead of succeeding in making what was commonly called a shapeshifter, the siameses suffered dramatic and violent convulsions with sudden horrible morphs in their bodies.
The scientists failed with their methods and theories, resulting in the formation of a creature that seemed to have walked out of a nightmare itself. Although to some degree the brother's anatomy had shape shifted flawlessly, their upper bodies had been stuck in between rejection and change permanently.
In their normal appearance, the siamese had been conjoined in the waist and had, not two independent pairs of legs, but only three legs. Now, their waist and legs had been replaced by the body of an oversized scorpion. Their bodies' muscles and bones had fusioned one on top of the other, and their faces were partially merged to one another and a lower pair of eyes had developed underneath their once "original" pair. Black fragments of carapace covered their abdomen and their ribs, exposing on top of their now-hardy scales, were wrapped in bulging husks that had a texture resembling that of a turtle's shell.
Disgusted with what was truthfully their creation, the scientists threw the mutant into an underground cell, unworthy of being even looked after. They weren't fed for months, and would only be given little water every few weeks. Much to the scientist's surprise, they showed no signs of weakness due to the lack of a proper meal, and thus, the newly named Splitface mutant began its activities in the Lab's Arena. Oftenly, they were seriously injured since most of the other mutants had special powers they did not possess. But they were fiercer, angry and very, very hungry. The venom they injected when piercing with their large sting didn't take long to sicken and paralyze their foes, and when no-one was burning them or biting at their thick insect skeleton, they immediately consumed the closest creature they had beaten. They were never allowed to feed for long before being thrown back into their small dark cell, however, since it was seemingly hunger what drove 'Splitface' into exceeding lengths of violence.
But suddenly, mutants escaped, and things had gotten out of the Lab's staff hands in the blink of an eye. Some grouped together, others fended on their own. What was certain though was that the mutant did nothing about anything nor truly knew what was happening. As far as it was concerned, they lived inside the building and the scientists had been their creators. Despite the alarm and the overwhelming sense of urgency the place was flooded with, Splitface stayed put and curled in the darkness of their cell. But in a heartbeat, the Lab exploded.
Rubble, dust and fire swept over the ruins the siameses once swore was their only home, and they were buried deeply between stone and soil. After days of digging and crawling between the fallen debris, the mutant finally freed himself and immediately began to journey away from the place; the need for a settlement where there was an abundance of food was nothing short of necessary.
