About

The Basilisk is a large serpentine predator classified under the fantasy creature type and introduced with the Aberration DLC. It inhabits the underground biomes of Aberration and is one of the more dangerous creatures players encounter there.

Admins can reference the entity ID Basilisk_Character_BP_C when using spawn commands, setting up creature spawners, or configuring NPC replacement rules. The name tag Basilisk can be used in relevant server config entries that accept tag-based creature references.

Because the Basilisk is tied to the Aberration DLC, it will only spawn naturally on maps that include Aberration's creature spawners. On custom or modded maps, you may need to manually configure spawn entries if you want it to appear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Basilisk Creature class name?
The creature ID for the Basilisk Creature is Basilisk_Character_BP_C. This is the blueprint class the game uses to identify it, and it's what admin summon commands take.
How do I spawn a wild Basilisk Creature?
Run cheat Summon Basilisk_Character_BP_C in the admin console. Summon spawns a wild, untamed Basilisk Creature at your location. Use GMSummon instead if you want it pre-tamed.
How do I spawn the Basilisk Creature over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Send the same command through RCON or your control panel: admincheat Summon Basilisk_Character_BP_C. Log in as admin first (enablecheats <AdminPassword>); if your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat".
How do I spawn a Basilisk Creature at an exact level and position?
Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/Dinos/Basilisk/Basilisk_Character_BP.Basilisk_Character_BP'" 0 0 0 0. SpawnDino takes the full blueprint path followed by spawn distance, Y offset, Z offset and level, so you can place the Basilisk Creature precisely instead of dropping it on top of your character.
