If food became scarce, they were capable of going into a state of heavy hibernation, from which they could only be roused by a sufficient level of heat. This somehow generated electricity within them that was released if they bled. They could only survive by digesting the blood of other entities. The most common result was a mid-air fight to the death, with the loser becoming an incubator for the offspring of the victor.ĭeath kisses were lone hunters who haunted the Underdark.
When two death kisses met, they might attempt to kill one another, leave each other alone, or even team up depending on the situation. They might submit to a more powerful being, although only so long as they could not escape. Society ĭeath kisses preferred to hunt alone, preying on whatever they found. The greatest strategy they might show in normal situations was to pull prey upwards as they drained them. This weakness showed in their tendency to play with their prey, leading them to make easily avoidable mistakes. While not stupid, death kisses tended not to strategize unless a foe was completely superior, such as against a dragon or other beholder. They typically hunted alone, preying on anything around them with blood, and when in combat were neither sophisticated nor subtle, violently lashing out at any nearby food source.

When on the hunt, death kisses would retract their tentacles and suddenly extend them to full length, surprising the target and catching them off guard. Because of the electricity in a death kiss's blood, causing them to bleed out would shock those nearby, and their death could cause a complete electric discharge. Ingesting blood also caused the death kiss to recover from injury, so death kisses would seek to restrain their prey with their tentacles before draining their blood until death. Abilities īy ingesting blood, the death kiss could generate electricity, which it could use to further damage its foes. They might impersonate true beholders to scare off greater threats. They were also sadistic, enjoying playing with their prey and draining them slowly and not taking combat seriously.
They were only paranoid about the loss of blood and so drained the blood of any creature they could find. They would typically submit to more powerful entities if only to keep their lives, lacking the egotistical nature of normal beholders. Behavior ĭeath kisses would attempt to escape the clutches of their creators at the first opportunity, as they were clearly superior. Only those who were not familiar with beholders could mistake a death kiss for a beholder. They could speak through their mouths and they sounded high-pitched and nasally. At the end of each of their tentacles was a toothy mouth, and each tentacle was fully retractable.

Their bodies were 10 ft (3 m) across and their leathery skin was a mottled gray, or a muted hue of the original beholder's skin. Death kisses resembled beholders but lacked their eyestalks and their mouth below their main eye, and instead were covered in ten, 20-foot-long (6 meters) tentacles ending in mouths.
