Black Lizard

A subspecies of basilisk. It gathers objects that shine, and are known to attack travelers and merchants for their jewels and accessories. Their nests are adorned with the goods they stole, and some have collected enough to exceed the value of manors. Many seek black lizard nests to gain the treasures they hoarded, but the black lizard is able to turn whoever it stares at into stone, so most are thwarted even before they get close to the black lizard's nest.
