This has bedeviled me since I first wrote this part of the plot, but I have an entry in my game's achievement journal that I can't quite find an alternative with enough punch while also sidestepping concerns related to context. Reason being is that it's a "cockatrice"-class boss and the only thing I can think of right now in terms of direct logic is literally written as "insert c**k joke". And obviously I'm not completely sold on it, considering that it can also reference "the s**k and the s***k".
Any thoughts on alternatives that fit the scenario in question?
