abstract
  • Pyrolisk is an enemy fought at Mount Gulg and Mirage Tower, and as a Monster-in-a-box at Waterfall Cavern. They appear in large groups, but typically run away from the battle, and if they don't, they battle with basic physical attacks and the Instant Death Gaze.
  • The pyrolisk, c (from the Greek word πῦρ “fire” blended with basilisk) is a monster that uses a special fire-based gaze attack that may burn up your potions, scrolls, and spellbooks. Armor is not affected, and engaging it does not run the risk of petrification like its cockatrice brethren. Its attack is useless if either one of you is blind, so the easiest solution is to wear a blindfold, then treat it like any other monster. Another good practice when encountering fire using monsters or traps to conserve your scrolls, potions and spellbooks is to keep these types of items in some kind of container, like a sack or bag of holding, or on the ground if lacking such tools and desperate. Having fire resistance prevents damage but can still affect your items. A pyrolisk corpse is a good source of both fire and poison resistance, with no risk of poisoning when consuming it.
  • In the Dungeons and Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the pyrolisk is a fictional creature that is very similar in appearance and physical strength to the cockatrice (a rooster/lizard hybrid). Their differences lie in the pyrolisk's red tail feathers and special abilities. While the cockatrice is often cited as having a stoning touch or gaze, pyrolisks rely on their own special gaze which causes any who meet it to burst into flame, along with any nearby source of fire. Pyrolisks themselves are immune to all sources of fire. Unlike the cockatrice, which has an animal intelligence and is considered to be of neutral alignment, the pyrolisk has a somewhat increased intelligence, and is an actively evil creature. While it normally detests all creatures, its mortal enemy is the phoenix.
