General
A peculiar species of reptile which has developed a number of ingenious adaptations for self-defense.The large bulbous eyes on their heads are in fact fake and act as deterrents to would-be predators;
Basilisks are also capable of spraying a petrifying mist which has earned them their well-deserved name.1
