As countless tales relate, basilisk companions are able to turn any person they wish into stone. This power extends to all living creatures as well, though, and even plants. However, there is an ability silex basiliks possess that not many know of. Whatever they freeze resembles any normal boulder, and as such blends seamlessly in with its environment. A very important addition to this power is that silex basilisks are able to mobilize their victims, with no harm done to them. Perhaps even more intriguing is the fact that humans remember everything that transpires while they were immobile. This is extremely useful when there is spying to be done, or in times of great danger. Of course, basilisks are vain creatures, and must be treated very kindly. If they feel vindictive at all, they will simply not turn the magi back into living flesh. For this reason, it's wise to have several people be aware when a magi is undergoing this transformation, in case they need magical aid. When in good moods, these companions can be more trusted. A well trained basilisk will close its eyes around people, moving based on its sense of smell and hearing alone. It's more typical for these companions to simply squint when around magi, which causes most people to suddenly feel very heavy and cold.
