My variants Optima and Nova Chess, which once were but are no longer available on these pages, featured a basilisk that immobilized at a knight's move. So there is precedent and your piece is not a new invention. Quite a coincidence (?) that you chose the same name for the same effect. Nova Chess is still in development, but Optima is not.
