Spoiler:

Abilities: Aside from being really loud, distracting, and kind of fast, the Cockatrice has few assets available to it in battle. It's more or less utterly useless - smaller than a man, and with a head of a chicken and the body of a reptile, it doesn't look too appealing, and whilst tasting almost excellent if cooked properly, it's got a fairly powerful bite, but is rather easy to fend off. Even novice Demon Hunters can take care of a Cockatrice fairly easy.

Unlike what lore may state, a Cockatrice can not turn that which it gazes upon to stone, and cannot breathe fire or anything remotely Demonic like that. It's just a little spot of irritating fauna that occasionally jumps characters and waddles around prodding its head through the air in a pseudo-hilarious manner. The Cockatrice is to Deus Mortuus what the Mudcrab is to the Elder Scrolls.

Miscellaneous Notes: - Really stupid.
- Sometimes reared by Demon farmers for food. Or fun.
- Rotisserie Cockatrice is a specialty of the Ashlands.
