Beholder Namesīeholders have names, and some of them are quite unique. For example, a beholder might find the syllable “skai” important, because they love flying, as it gives them the height advantage. Alternatively, the beholder has specific syllables that are important to it. Instead, a beholder makes noises with it’s mouth until it finds something that sticks.

This would almost become psychosis in any race, but for a beholder, this is required. Luckily for the beholder, their eyes are constantly active, scanning for threats in the shadows. They don’t have too many options, but it’s at least a step up from randomly generating it! Do Beholders Have Names?īeholders are more intelligent than almost any human can ever theorize.
