- Today on The Demonic Compendium, we look at a figure that's been a surprisingly frequent partner of characters in Shin Megami Tensei, Persona, and Devil Summoner! We answer the age old question of whether it's a lizard or a chicken and explore what makes it different from the Cockatrice! That's right, today, we're talking about Basilisk!

Basilisk also has a small role in Strange Journey as part of the group of demons keeping Ouroboros alive in Sector Eridanus, and needs to be beaten to stop Ouroboros' regeneration. It's also one of Ouroboros' special fusion ingredients.
Welcome to the school of shadows where you learn where demons gather
Personally I prefer the lizard design for Basilisk because I associate the chicken look with Cockatrice and I’d rather every demon have their own unique design
Sweet video, John. While I do like the chicken design (3:08 its dance is just too captivating), I do hope that its lizard design can get the 3D treatment at some point.
I think the chicken design is a perfectly fine design. I like it! I just like it and think it's a perfectly fine design for Cockatrice is all.
Maybe they could make the lizard design a baby Basilisk as a separate demon?
The Basilikos axe in Tokyo Mirage Sessions is likely not a related to Basilisk, and is instead just a reference to the axe of the same name that appears in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
WHOOOO FINALLY CATCH UP! (Been binging this series over the last few days and been loving it) I’d love to see an episode on either Loki or Black Frost. I’d also ask for the OG Jack Frost, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up being the 100th episode. I don’t envy you having to lost off all the games he’s in, it’d probably be quicker to list the games the little guy doesn’t show up in
im also reminded of the Cockatrice/Basilisk design from the Disgaea franchise! They have snakes for tails too x3
Just want you to know that while I don't comment on your vids much, I really appreciate your compendium and SMT/Persona videos \^.^/ They're always fun to watch while eating dinner...uh, totally not chicken lol
Thank you! That really means a lot to me! And hey, don't feel bad. I was eating chicken while EDITING this video! XD
I just ate some Mcdonalds chicken Mcnuggets while watching this video. 😮😅
I think Basilisk would've worked as the October entry because there is a monster movie called Basilisk: The Serpent King from 2006, but in that movie its powers are more befitting of a Cockatrice with it being able to turn people into stone.
Smt chicken basilisk looking at Raidou
Basilisk: "your gonna be talon licking good human"
Raidou: "hah i won't chicken out on this fight, alright were going have some chicken wings tonight"
Basilisk: "okay this joke is running old...i think were chicken running out of jokes"
Raidou: "yeah lets just fight"
Rasputin "...Raidou you gotta stop watching comedy shows"
So what did you think of the dialog idea for Raidou 3 whenever that happens...any day now....hehe we can wait....we can right?
Had Jim Morrison not died in 1971, he should've went on and started a seperate prog-rock band called 'Basilisk' after his preffered nickname of the "Lizard King".
I much prefer the lizard design, as the chicken design fits Cockatrice better
Please Do Dai-Sou-Jou Next , one of my favourite Demons and Personas.
It's also noteworthy that the Basilisk is really important to Polish people, since one of the biggest legends is of Warsaw cellar's basilisk. How important? About as important as Princess Kaguya is to Japanese people or the Golem of Prague is to Czech. Every child knows what a basilisk is, even if it's not described
Can you do huang long since it's gonna be the year of the dragon during 2024
Funny you mention that…
The yellow design makes me think of the troop we need more dromeasaur based basilisks
Haha fantastic . im eating shoyu chicken while watching this 😅
Ooooh, I could totally go for some shoyu chicken right about now
I don’t like either design too much. The old one just looks too much like a big chicken with no reptile features, and the DeSum one is just a reptile.
Ironically, just going more by the book and basing it on its usual depictions with dragon wings would’ve helped it stand out more imo.
Suprised you haven't done Jack Frost yet, considering he's Atlus' mascot.
Come to think of it, why not throw in Black Frost and King Frost as well? May as well get the entire Frost family out of the way in one go, lol.
