Within the chambers of Orthanc, this aberration has been twisted into a floating nightmare of many eyes. It defends its domain by lashing out with numerous undulating stalks and overwhelming its foes with a singular, piercing gaze.

Combat

HP	5,000	AC	75 (10 base + +16 Dex + +41 natural (NaturalAC) + +2 natural (Armor Skin) + +6 dodge (Tumble, 30 ranks))	BAB	+35

Saves shown = stored bonus + ability mod + item bonuses (Saving Throw Bonus: Specific); class-table progression and feat bonuses (Great Fortitude, etc.) are applied at runtime.

Abilities & combat properties

Damage Resistance	Acid 50/-, Cold 10/-, Divine 5/-, Electrical 10/-, Fire 50/-
Misc Immunity	Disease, Fear, Knockdown, Level/Ability Drain, Paralysis, Poison

Dodge AC and save bonuses are factored into the main combat stats above. Dodge AC stacks (cap +20); haste adds +4 more (separate). All other same-type bonuses do not stack — only the highest is shown. Regeneration stacks without limit. Immunities marked (racial) are granted by the creature's racial type by the engine, not by its equipment.
