Southern deserts

On the south of Cybertron, there exists a group of dark and barren deserts collectively known as the Southern deserts, their surface covered with powdered particles of iron.

At least sometimes, the occasional traveller in these parts were stalked by Scorponok, who even before the war preferred to lurk in shadowy and unpopulated areas such as these, where his prey wouldn't suspect his presence until the moment he jumped out of the steel sand. <ref>Stalker Scorponok bio</ref>
