Basilisks are great 14 ft lizards with eight legs, able to turn material to stone by channelling a supernatural gaze attack. Their lairs are often surrounded by pieces of incredibly life like statues, which the monster consumes. The basilisk's gaze attack requires one organic target within 120 ft to make a Luck (Con) save or be turned to stone. Such petrification can be reversed with tears from a unicorn or sprite, or a Flesh to Stone spell.
