The Basilisk could grow up to fifty feet in length, were a dark green or a colour with a lighter green underbelly. [1] They also possessed rows of incredibly sharp poisonous fangs and large yellow eyes. [1] These eyes had the power to instantly kill anyone who looked into them. [3] In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry's battle with the Basilisk has considerable parallels to the tales of the Edda concerning Thor's battle with Jörmungandr at Ragnarök, from the significance of the beast's release to the retributive poisoning it unleashes on him in its death throes. Mating between these lizards is a unique process. While females only mate with one male during the mating season, males will take multiple partners. century Vilnius University historian Professor Adomas Ignacas Naramovskis (Adam Ignacy Naramowski) wrote of the basilisks that were said to have lived in Warsaw and Vilnius in his book Facies rerum Sarmaticarum. [13] Romantic historian Teodoras Narbutas ( Teodor Narbutt) describes the location of the Vilnius basilisk's lair as having been near Subačius Gate.

Psalm 91 in the Hebrew/Protestant numbering, 90 in the Greek/Catholic liturgical sequence – see Psalms#Numbering A basilisk's eyes were also capable of viewing the astral and ethereal planes, though not at the same time, and only if they concentrated to do so. Their gaze also worked against creatures on these planes, killing creatures on the astral, and turning those on the ethereal into a different kind of "ethereal" stone. [11] On the material plane, they could see both the infrared, and ultraviolet spectrums of light, granting them darkvision. [11] The Basilisk in mythology has many similarities with its depiction in Ark. However, the Basilisk in Ark cannot kill creatures with its glare like the Basilisk in mythology, though its eyes do look pretty soulless and creepy.
As a pet, basilisk lizard babies require up to three meals a day, gathering as much as they can eat within just ten minutes. Just over 70% of their diet consists of insects and other animal life, while the rest is plant matter. What Eats Basilisk Lizards? An adult basilisk is 13 feet long from head to tail and weighs roughly 300 pounds. These reptiles make hissing sounds when moving about that turns to a guttural gurgle when they’re agitated. Though they are normally solitary creatures that come together only to mate and lay eggs, there are periodic reports of regions being infested with unusual numbers of basilisks. What causes these unusual congregations of basilisk activity is unknown. Basilisks could be found nearly everywhere, including subterranean biomes. Typically, basilisks sheltered within burrows, caves, or other similar areas. These dens were sometimes distinguished by what appeared to be statues, although these were, in fact, creatures that had been petrified by the gaze of the creature. [3] Despite their adaptability, and although they still lived in such places, they didn't appear to thrive in cold climes, [1] presumably due to their cold-blooded nature. [10]Travel: Due to it’s high speed and ability to borrow underground, the Basilisk is excellent for travelling underground; it is more certain an underground travel mount. It is ill advised to ever fight a Basilisk alone, so make sure to at least be mounting a decent creature or have good weaponry.
Though its eye gaze alone could potentially kill its victims, basilisk venom was an extremely poisonous substance that only had one known antidote: phoenix tears. [1] Basilisk venom was so powerful that it could kill a person within minutes, making the person drowsy and blurry-visioned before they died. It had a very long lasting effect which still remained potent even up to five years or more after the snake had died. [1] It could also damage inanimate objects so thoroughly that they were impossible to restore, and thus it was one of the few substances powerful enough to destroy a Horcrux.

John Benjamins Publishing Company. p.127. ISBN 978-90-272-6512-8. Ironsworn: The Flooded Lands are home to the beastly basilisks. Mercifully, they don't have the petrification powers that basilisk in other settings have, but they do have a "mesmerizing gaze." And they eat people. Frank Mentzer (January 1985). “Ay pronunseeAYshun gyd”. In Kim Mohan ed. Dragon #93 ( TSR, Inc.), p. 25.This section displays the Basilisk's natural colors and regions. For demonstration, the regions below are colored red over an albino Basilisk. The colored squares shown underneath each region's description are the colors that the Basilisk will randomly spawn with to provide an overall range of its natural color scheme. Hover your cursor over a color to display its name and ID. I looked up the passage... I guess the first part of your quote comes from an earlier part of the prologue? In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry watches the Basilisk by its shadow on the floor. Even when not burrowed, the Basilisk will gradually lose both taming progress and taming effectiveness. One way to prevent this is to continuously keep it aggro either on you, or on a creature(tested on PC version 322.6).
Spawns at an uncommon rate in The Portal and rarely in The Edge areas. It can also be found sporadically across most of Aberration.In European bestiaries and legends, a basilisk ( / ˈ b æ s ɪ l ɪ s k/ or / ˈ b æ z ɪ l ɪ s k/ [1]) is a legendary reptile reputed to be a serpent king, who causes death to those who look into its eyes. According to the Naturalis Historia of Pliny the Elder, the basilisk of Cyrene is a small snake, "being not more than twelve inches in length", [2] that is so venomous, it leaves a wide trail of deadly venom in its wake, and its gaze is likewise lethal. In general, the tail accounts for about 75% of the lizard’s total length. The average length (with the tail) is about 2.5 feet long. Their feet feature unique adaptations – like hinges and hollow bones – to help keep them on top of the water. Colorful blue Basilisk Lizard in a terrarium.
