Basilisk
Chapter 5
Basilisk is a brilliant green serpent that may reach up to 50 ft in length. The male has a scarlet plume on his head and especially venomous fangs, its most dangerous means of attack is the gaze of its large yellow eyes. Anyone looking directly into these will suffer instant death. The basilisk may attain a very long age. The first recorded Basilisk was bred by Herpo the Foul, a Greek dark Wizard and parselmouth. Who discovered after much experimentation that a chicken egg hatch beneath a toad would produce a gigantic serpent possessed of extraordinary dangerous powers.
