In the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' fantasy roleplaying game, the cockatrice is a small avian magical beast. Any creature that a cockatrice bites can be permanently turned to stone. A cockatrice is intelligent, and is always neutral in alignment. ==Publication history== The cockatrice is based on medieval alchemical folklore, which believed they came from a snake or a toad hatching a rooster's egg. The cockatrice is sometimes called a basilisk in ancient mythos. The cockatrice first appeared in the original ''Dungeons & Dragons'' set (1974).
