Quick Facts

---

Appearance...
- A large constrictor snake, with a heavily armored head and studded scaly armor.
- Eyes are supposedly yellow, however all daguerrotype pictures show only a dark spot with a faint blue ring.
- Favor damp regions of the grykes valley, through they have been known to range farther north.
Habitat...
- Northwestern Centra
- Grykes Valley, a supposely ancient seabed where now only shows the ruins with petrified remains of animals and wooden vessels.
- Typically have large burrows, but they themselves do not make the burrows.
Behavior...
- They stalk prey through large cracks in the ancient seabed, and with a brief flash of their eyes they stun targets instantly and consume them.
- While they are fearsome with their demonic eyesight, Basilisks are also constricting snakes that have powerful muscles that allow them to crush nearly anything if immune to their vision.
- Powerful venoms allow them to dissolve their prey with weak acids, making their rather fragile teeth less likely to break while chewing. Some report that they have beaver-like incisors for crushing rock, but no skeletons have proven such rumors.
