Beholder Physiology

The power to use the abilities of a Beholder. Variation of Mythic Physiology.
==Also Called==
*Sphere of Many Eyes Mimicry/Physiology
*Eye Tyrant Mimicry/Physiology
==Capabilities==
Beholders were inherently magical creatures, with each of their eyes possessing an innately magical nature. Beholders, who often attacked for seemingly no reason, would often try to end a battle as quickly as possible, unleashing their terrifying abilities all at once. Among the most basic of these attacks was their deadly ability to project magical power from their eyes, in varying forms such as instilling fear within, charming, knocking out, petrifying, disintegrating, slowing, or killing their enemies. Any combination of these was possible.
Many, but not all, beholders also had the capacity to use their central eye to project a field of Anti-Magic, which canceled the effects of all supernatural abilities within a small cone of 150 feet in length. In addition to enemy spells, prayers, or similar effects, this also affected a beholder's own eye rays, suppressing their power. However, the inability to cast its eye rays at full strength was hardly a hindrance—it allowed a beholder to attack its foes with its large, toothy maw.
