Doomsphere Eye Tyrant
Xakamt was an eye tyrant who attempted to penetrate the defenses of the Flaming Brazier and abscond with its reputed trove of magic in the Year of the Helm (1362 DR). Contigency magics Xakamt had previously obtained to prevent his eventually death were triggered by the burning embrace of a powerful fire elemental and interacted with the beholder’s simultaneous triggering of its disintegration ray. Xakamt survived the resulting conflagration as a form of a ghost beholder – a weird hybrid between a doomsphere and a blazing bones. Ever since its ill-fated infiltration, however, Xakamt has found himself irrevocably bound to the will of Mythalanir. The Eternal Flame has taken pains to keep the flaming doomsphere’s existence secret and forced Xakamt into the role of enthralled bodyguard. How Mythalanir keeps Xakamt under such tight control is an unsolved mystery, but those few who have discovered the undead eye tyrant’s existence and survived speculate it involves a boon of Kossuth.
