Chicka-lisk

"Presents?! I love presents!! Thanks, you guys!!"

The Chicka-lisk (also known as Chicka-lisk the Stormbearer) is a winged bird demon that eats gold.

Appearance
It appears as a giant chicken with dragon wings and dragon claws. Its beak somehow has sharp teeth. Other than scars on its head, it has a devil-like bone handle sword, arrows, broken spears and broken blades stuck on its hide, implying it had been summoned and attacked before.

Personality
The Chicka-lisk is extremely well-mannered, but only attacks the Wartwood citizens through self-defense when they start provoking it. It has a fondness for presents, though it eats them, rather than opening them. When insulted in its own native tongue, the Chicka-lisk is quick to take offense and leave on its own accord instead of continuing its rampage.

Abilities

 * Flight: Despite being a chicken, the Chicka-lisk can use its dragon-like wings to fly through the air with ease.
 * Petrifying gaze: Similar to a basilisk, the Chicka-lisk encases its enemies within shells of stone with a glance. It does this by focusing its stare to unleash beams of purple energy from its eyes. These beams can also petrify inorganic objects like lanterns.
 * Fire-breathing: The Chicka-lisk exhales great blasts of flame from its mouth. Its breath is hot enough to melt even solid gold.
 * Wind-manipulation: By flapping its wings, the Chicka-lisk can generate powerful tornadoes to knock back its prey.
 * Tremor creation: The Chicka-lisk creates shockwaves through the earth by flying up high and dropping back down to stamp with its feet. These are strong enough to cover a large radius around itself to trip up enemies, though they can be jumped over.
 * Regeneration: While the Chicka-lisk is capable of being harmed, any attack made on it can be healed in a matter of seconds. Though it has many old weapons embedded in its hide, none of these seem to bother it at all, likely having fused to its body with age.

Trivia

 * The Chicka-lisk's ability to consume gold is similar to the Chinese mythical creature, except the Pixiu could eat silver and jewels as well.
 * The Chicka-lisk proves that monsters can be summoned in Amphibia by Amphibians through ritual.
 * The creature is likely a meld between the Cockatrice and Basilisk, dragon-like galliforme creatures representing danger for European explorers in myth.
 * This is supported as its original name was The frog eating Cockatrix.
 * It has similar powers to the basilisk, being as it uses its eyes to turn enemies to stone, along with fire-breathing like dragons.
 * It doesn't eat frogs, but would totally attack any kind of amphibian when its life was threatened.
 * According to storyboard artist Joe Sparrow, the idea of a big chicken beast has been floating around since before the show existed. Joe drew the first design of the Chicka-lisk for the show back in 2017. A similar giant chicken monster appears in the Amphibia Theme Song.
