Woooo, Death Star action!

Also, anyone else note that there is now a path directly from the drow throne room to the surface?

Do ... eye tyrants have organs ? Or they are just big balls of abherration magic ?

There is no way this simple small "zip" is the sound of the Dread Evil Goddess of Chaos and Drow-Related Bad Things being defeated / abandonning the fight for good...

Would I be His Royal Roundness, I would immediately go as far up as I can... and get out of reach of a surprise attack from this burrowing avatar.

She was beaten pretty hard just a few seconds ago. I bet that this is a retreat, at least a tactical one.

Lolth looks older, more haggard, after the 'death star'-attack. Is she losing control of her form, or is it 'just' the massive beating she's taking?

As for the Beholder King: Aberrations are just that; aberrant. Their internal physiology is different to that of humanoids and animals. The King's crucial organs may be spread out through his whole body as a series of webs, rather than compact nodes.

I just waiting for that form of attack, too!

That tri-beam attack looked seriously meaty, i think that one put a serious dent in Lolth's strength, it hurled her up in the air and forced her to retreat, so i'd say it's a little of column a and a little of column b.



Beholder organs are actually surprisingly straight forward (if incredibly alien), the only really genuinely aberrant thing about Beholder internals is the fact that they just ignore gravity for no reason.

A Beholder's 'head' is actually mostly filled with mouth and digestive tract, unless you happen to hit the point just behind the main eyeball (where the brain and 'lungs' are, beholders don't have a heart) you can actually poke holes in a Beholder all day and none of them will be immediately fatal.

Given the fact that the Beholder King has at least enough power to go toe to toe with an avatar of a major deity and come out on top in the first round, I'm sure he has the power neccessary to heal himself up from any not immediately fatal wounds. It also wouldn't be too surprising if he had some kind of fast healing or regeneration too.

Hello. I'm helpful.

Or even a "healing ray" eye. Not usually equipped on your standard beholder, but neither are Death Star beams.

That's no moon...

The King may just have some healing items on him. He didn't get to be King by ignoring useful tools, I shouldn't think.

Yeah, he could have a ring of...

No, that won't work.

I know, an amulet of...

Not that either.

Pfft, isn't it obvious.
Contact Lens of....

Though on that point, how would he put them in?

Telekenisis.

No no no, he needs a hat.

And since it appears he lost his hat, obviously he was involved in a bad plan at some point.

There is no reason that a magical device (ring, necklace, etc.) , couldn't be implanted somewhere or worn on a tooth...

Well, other than the rules kind of being a pain in the neck about that, to keep players from having every ring in the DMG implanted in their body somewhere.
