Scorpion tail

A scorpion tail is a miscellaneous item in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics and Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel.

Characteristics
They are the tails taken from dead radscorpions, cut at the base where they meet the body, and they are prized for the poison sac it contains, which is used to make a poison antidote. The tail is comprised of the segmented sections of the tail ending in the stinger, they vary in size depending on the radscorpion, and vary slightly in appearance across the different games, with the Tactics version showing a small amount of poison on the stinger. The cleanness of the severing point varies slightly, although this does not affect its value or potential uses.
