| − | In the ''[[Dungeons and Dragons]]'' [[fantasy]] [[roleplaying game]], the '''boalisk''' is a [[Magical beast (Dungeons & Dragons)|magical beast]], created by crossbreeding a [[boa]] with a [[Basilisk (Dungeons & Dragons)|basilisk]]. It was introduced in the D&D module S4 - ''[[Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth|The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth]]'' and later reprinted in the ''[[Monster Manual II]]'' [http://www.enworld.org/cc/converted/magical_beast/boalisk.htm] [http://www.thekyngdoms.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=26&view=previous&sid=f3e76ef4a2ff41d8bdc92b61fcbedf94].

| |
| − | The boalisk resembles a 25 foot long [[constrictor]] [[snake]], and it dwells in the tropics. Though the boalisk lacks the numerous legs which is a signature of the basilisk, it does have the eye weapon; any who meets its gaze are infected with a rotting disease similar to that which is inflicted by the [[Mummy (Dungeons & Dragons)|mummy]]. Even if the boalisk's gaze is not met, mere knowledge of its presence will inflict armor damage instead. The boalisk can also use normal bite and constrict attacks. Boalisks cannot talk, being animals.
