Origin: Greek mythology
Type: Ant-eating serpent
Said to have been born from the blood of Medusa, the Amphisbaena is depicted as a scaly serpent with two or more chicken-like legs, eyes like glowing coals, feathery wings, and two heads on both ends. It is said that if it is cut in half, it will rejoin itself again. It moves by slithering or grabbing onto it’s tail to roll.
It is believed that wearing a live Amphisbaena will bring a healthy pregnancy, that wearing just it’s skin will cure illness, and eating it’s meat will attract a lover.
