A puff adder. That would be funny.

imagine a black mamba or a cobra, scary
I am the harbinger of the spicy rooster apocalypse,
I am the hydrogen bomb in a necktie,
I hold the flames of a thousand collapsed stars,
I am Bobracha!

There are adders in Taggerung.

..In the hush that followed, Song noticed Dippler weeping.

All this talk of terrifying adders, and then we have Mister Death from Rakkety Tam... ::)

Good old Mister Death.

Also, what do you think would happen if Gulo fought Asmodeus?
The fastest way to a man's heart- Or anyone's, in fact- Is to tear a hole through their chest.

Gulo, naturally, would use his greater strength and power to bull throught the snake. Asmodeus isn't stupid, and could dodge quickly, sustatianing small, minor injuries before attacking Gulo himself.

The Skarzs

They would probably both end up killing each other, Gulo because of his great size, strength, and endurance, and Asmodeus because of his cunning, his own size, and his venomous bite.

I did some research.

The only venomous snake native to Great Britain, which Mossflower is based off of, is the common adder. Thus, Asmodeus would have been of this type. Well, honey badgers prey on snakes that are more poisonous and dangerous than the adder is, and the wolverine's hide is at least as tough as a honey badger's.

Even if Asmodeus was able to penetrate his hide, his poison might not be up to the job -- apparently, if a snake penetrates the badger's skin, it isn't unheard of for the badger to kill the snake anyway, get knocked unconscious for a few hours, then wake up and eat.

Even if Asmodeus bites him and even if the venom is fatal, it's very unlikely to work fast enough to prevent Gulo from getting the kill. So, it should be a curbstomp for Gulo.

For the same reasons as James, I think Asmodeus would win. What would happen if Baliss and Urthstripe, the badger lord from Salamandastron, fought?

Baliss is foolish because he didn't know that a hedgehog had spikes  :o
