Not THAT good at fighting, but has a very special and useful skill: the "petrifying gaze". Usable every 5 turns, it targets an enemy that is in the same line or column than the basilisk (that is, an enemy that is in a + area centered on the basilisk), ignoring distance, and the target is petrified. Petrified targets are unable to act, but also dont take any damage. They can be cured with any sort of healing (regeneration included). (I hope it's not too much work to code

Cost: 3 (ground) (can use petrifying gaze. Has poison attack. Gem upgrade unit.)

Description: This deadly reptile can petrify enemies with a cursed gaze, and also have a lethal poison. However, it is not very resistent or fast, so use it cautiously.
