A beholder, e, is a type of monster that appears in EvilHack. The beholder is a large eye creature that can fly and be seen via infravision.
A beholder has a slowing gaze, a sleep-inducing gaze, a disintegration gaze, a stoning gaze, a canceling gaze, and a powerful bite attack. Beholders possess cold resistance, shock resistance, poison resistance, and stoning resistance.
Eating a beholder corpse or tin conveys 2⁄25 additional poison resistance.

Beholders cannot be a target for genocide unless Tal'Gath is killed.
Encyclopedia entry
The beholder is the stuff of nightmares. This creature,
also called the sphere of many eyes or the eye tyrant,
appears as a large orb dominated by a central eye and a
large toothy maw, has 10 smaller eyes on stalks sprouting
from the top of the orb. Among adventurers, beholders are
known as deadly adversaries.
