At a Glance

A beholder —also called an eye tyrant or a sphere of many eyes— is an aberration.

Beholders are believed to come from the stars; the most likely candidate is H’Catha.

In cases where individual beholders recognize anything greater than themselves, they tend to venerate a being they call Great Mother.

Intriguingly, this is one of 11 monsters in the Monster Manual which are considered “Product Identity” by Wizards of the Coast and therefore could not be included in the d20 SRD.
