THE ITO BROTHERS.

divinity will stain your fingers and mouth like a pomegranate. it will swallow you whole and spit you out, wine-dark and wanting.
you will reach for it again and again, greedy human fingers clutching at everything you can reach.
the divine will curl its way through your veins and take you over, and it will not leave you quietly.
i feel divinity in my bones like aching ; like fire.

CAVERNA REGULI. --
BASILISCUS.

"Of the many fearsome beasts and monsters that roam our land, there is none more curious or more deadly than the Basilisk, known also as the King of Serpents. This snake, which may reach gigantic size, and live many hundreds of years, is born from a chicken's egg, hatched beneath a toad. Its methods of killing are most wondrous, for aside from its deadly and venomous fangs, the Basilisk has a murderous stare, and all who are fixed with the beam of its eye shall suffer instant death. Spiders flee before the Basilisk, for it is their mortal enemy, and the Basilisk flees only from the crowing of the rooster, which is fatal to it."

- most macabre monstrosities

it was a voice, a voice to chill the bone-marrow, a voice of breath-taking, ice-cold venom.
' come ... come to me ...let me rip you ... let me tear you ... let me kill you ... '

M.O.M classification :
XXXXX

the first recorded basilisk was bred by herpo the foul, a greek dark wizard and parselmouth, who discovered after much expirimentation that a chicken egg hatched beneath a toad would produce a gigantic serpent with extraordinarily dangerous powers. the basilisk may reach up to fifty feet in length and the male has a scarlet plume upon its head. it posesses venomous fangs and large yellow eyes. anyone looking directly into these will suffer instant death. the creation of basilisks has been illegal since medieval times because they are uncontrollable, except by parselmouths.

ABILITES :
instant death gazeWhen a live victim looks directly into the Basilisk's eyes, it results in instant death. If the victim is a ghost, then they can look directly into the serpent's eyes without suffering death, as the dead cannot die again; however, they would suffer petrification. Should a camera be reflected onto the serpent's eyes, the lens and film will be melted.
petrficationWhen a victim looks indirectly at the Basilisk's eyes, such as its reflection, they will merely become petrified
