These are on volcano island in Fjordur, be careful they sometimes come in pairs of two.

Basilisk like to hide under u so if u see a W in the ground don’t go any were near it and if you see a basilisk itself... run

LIKE SO MORE PEOPLE CAN SEE

Aberration survival rule #1: if you see a strange "v" in the ground, run for your life and don't look back

This legless lizard spits poison, one hit knocks you, and it loves to kill your Bulbdog named Spike

They spawn in the volcano biome on genesis

Me: Sees a cool V on the ground, explores

Basilisk: Hey did you come to feed me?

STAY OUT OF ITS WAY TO AVOID CONFLICT

What a pretty plant let’s touch I-

Basilisk: nom

So, my friend and I are playing Fjordur until I have the great idea "Let's go tame a basilisk!" So we go to Balhmeir and find one burrowed. My friend was in a mech and shot it, and the splash damage got it out of the ground. We were on the ground with it, and turns out it was an ALPHA BASILISK. I think the ark Devs were a little high when making this...

I GOT 3 SHOT BY IT AND I HAD 800 HEALTH AND FULL ASCENDANT FLAK ARMOUR

(It also snapped my griffin out of existence)
