This flash affects all creatures in a 60-foot cone. The baleful flash blinds creatures for 2d6 rounds and stuns them for half the duration of the blindness. A DC 22 Fortitude save negates the stun and reduces the blindness to dazzled. Sightless creatures are immune to this attack. The save DC is Constitution-based.\r\n\r\nConstrict (Ex): An eye of the deep deals 2d6+5 points of damage with a successful grapple check.\r\n\r\nEye Rays (Su): Each of an eye of the deep's two small eyes can produce a magical ray once per round as a free action. A beholderkin of any kind can tilt and pan its body each round to change which rays it can bring to bear in any given arc. Each eye's effect follows the rules for a ray. Each ray has a range of 150 feet and a save DC of 18 (caster level 12th). The save DCs are Charisma-based. The two eye rays include:\r\n\r\nHold Monster: The target must succeed on a Will save or be affected as though by the spell.\r\n\r\nCone of Cold: This works like the spell, but affects only the creature touched by the ray (Reflex save for half).\r\n\r\nImproved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, an eye of the deep must hit with its claw attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking attacks of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can constrict.\r\n\r\nPersistent Image (Sp): As a standard action, an eye of the deep can create a persistent image (as the spell at caster level 12th). The eye of the deep cannot use its eye rays in the same round that it casts persistent image.\r\n\r\nAll-Around Vision (Ex): Beholderkin are exceptionally alert and circumspect. Their many eyes give them a +4 on Search and Spot checks, and they can't be flanked.\r\n\r\nAn eye of the deep uses its baleful flash ability and eye rays to hinder foes at range so it can swim up close and tear them apart with its massive claws.","jsondata":"","tags":"","templateId":"4842","blockId":"1386122","world":"ceefbea4-4979-4620-9336-f87037beb5f1","folder":"","isShared":"on"}
