Description

The designs of Tyrant Ships are as different from each other as one beholder is from another. Some may appear wrinkled like a walnut, as huge disembodied eyeballs, a series of globes supported by tentacles, or even just as a massive beholder. The crew of a Tyrant Ship always includes at least one hive mother and one orbus, without whom the ship would not function, though a number of regular beholders and additional orbi are usually present as well.

Special Weaponry

While beholder ships may lack conventional weaponry, this does not make them any less dangerous. This apparent shortcoming is more than made up for by what the ship does have: lots of beholders in one place. While on board a Tyrant Ship, a circuit of beholders consisting of a hive queen, orbus, and a common beholder may each use their action to create a beam of energy 1,000 ft long and 50 ft wide. This beam mimics any of a beholder's normal eye beams and affects all within the space of the beam.
