	In [[2845]], Loremaster [[Ethan Moreau]] spoke to the Scorpion [[Bloodname]]d warriors, telling them about a vision that he had of the future.  He said he was shown a great vision of how the Goliath Scorpions would restore the Star League.  He instructed each of the warriors present to go to [[Tokasha]], one of their colony enclaves, and scour the planet for a cache left behind by the [[Not-Named Clan]], and that this would be the first key to their eventual dominance.  The warriors searched Tokasha for years, making their Clan neighbors upset at their disregard for boundaries, but finding no cache.<ref name=FM:WCp103,104/>		In [[2845]], Loremaster [[Ethan Moreau]] spoke to the Scorpion [[Bloodname]]d warriors, telling them about a vision that he had of the future.  He said he was shown a great vision of how the Goliath Scorpions would restore the Star League.  He instructed each of the warriors present to go to [[Tokasha]], one of their colony enclaves, and scour the planet for a cache left behind by the [[Not-Named Clan]], and that this would be the first key to their eventual dominance.  The warriors searched Tokasha for years, making their Clan neighbors upset at their disregard for boundaries, but finding no cache.<ref name=FM:WCp103,104/>

Loremaster Moreau suggested a new test to thin out the ranks. Each of the young warriors would subject themselves to the sting of a goliath scorpion to prove their worthiness physically and mentally, but also as an echo of certain ancient [[Terra]]n warrior rituals. While this proved an excellent way to weed out the weak, it killed too many warriors, endangering the Clan's genetic stability. Khan [[Shandra Dinour]] was intrigued by the reported visions that the survivors had witnessed, but still considered the cost too high to continue using the ritual.<ref name=FM:WCp103,104/> After a two-year effort ordered by Khan Dinour, the Goliath Scorpion scientists invented a less-deadly alternative, [[necrosia]]. A green luminous liquid, it had the hallucinogenic "vision" effects of the scorpion venom, but without an overwhelming fatality rate. It soon became very popular with the young warriors, who claimed it allowed them to see the future when looking at things from the past.<ref name=FM:WCp103,104/> In [[2845]], Loremaster [[Ethan Moreau]] spoke to the Scorpion [[Bloodname]]d warriors, telling them about a vision that he had of the future.
