Abilities[]

Petrifying Breath — The caster expels petrifying dust in a cone 12 yards long for 3 sec. Enemies caught in the cone suffer Physical damage every 0.5 seconds and are affected with Petrification.
- Petrification — The victim slowly turns to stone, moving and attacking slower for 30 sec. This effect stacks, causing the victim to move and attack even slower. After 10 stacks, the victim is completely petrified. Exposure to the elements petrifies the victim, turning them to stone temporarily.
Sinkhole — The caster periodically creates a Sinkhole nearby that will pull in nearby players towards its center. Players that reach the center of the Sinkhole suffer severe Physical damage.
Tail — The caster lashes out with their tail, inflicting physical damage and knocking back any players caught behind them.
Thrashing Bite — The cast lashes out, biting at all enemies within 15 yards in front of them, inflicting Physical damage to the closest player caught in their jaws. Victims of the attack are thrashed about, suffering Physical damage for 3 sec.
Vile Blood — Hydras all have blood that is toxic to their enemies.

Bashmu may be named after Bašmu, one of the children of Tiamat in Mesopotamian mythology. It was a venomous serpent sometimes correlated with the Greek Hydra.
