The Basilisk, also known as the Sauria in the NES version, is an enemy in the original Final Fantasy. They only appear later in the game, as a random encounter on an island in the dragon chain. Later, they appear in Chaos Shrine, where they are easy to defeat.
To defeat this monsters, simply attack, as you may be saving your magic for the bosses in the Chaos Shrine, due to their average Defense, they aren't hard to defeat. Beware of their Gaze ability, as they can Petrify you easily. They drop Gold Needles to cure that status ailment, however.
The Basilisk first appeared in Final Fantasy, but later reappears in a lot of other titles and remakes, they have the shape of a reptile, such as lizards, chameleons, or even snakes. Basilisks are recurring enemies that appear in other RPGs as many other mythological creatures.
