That’ll work!
*Rolls beneath the blast and stabs a sharp rock into the eye before falling back quickly*
Lily, status update!

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

Access to spellcasting cannot be immediately restored. Estimating time required to disable the enemy ability.
*Continues to analyze the structure and source of the attack*

<Snipped quote by Source>

*The barrier explodes outward, maintaining form but expanding rapidly*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*The structure is one of anti-magic as far as you can tell. Simply a force that cancels out magical effects. The source is, seemingly, the Beholder itself. Almost as though it is a natural ability or trait rather than one it has learned*

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

Target appears to be using an innate skill. Continuing scan.
*Searches for any weaknesses that might be leveraged to disrupt or cancel the ability*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*You do not find anything to cancel the ability, other than destroying the creature's central eye to prevent another attack of the same kind, although you do find that the anti-magic field will dissipate in the next five seconds or so*

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

Target attack to expire shortly. Suggestion: Prepare rapid-casted magical counterattack.

How large will this get?

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Targets the eye that emitted the beam with my right hand*

<Snipped quote by Source>

Large enough that he can't kill or overly cripple anyone like that again. Not so big as to give him too much room.

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

*One of the Beholder's eye-stalks swivels to glare in your general direction, a beam of pure necrotic energy surging from it in mere seconds*

<Snipped quote by Source>

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

*Lurches to the right, my left shoulder catching part of the attack, but the effect slowed by my necrosis resistance skill*
Agh... magic thief.

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

*The Beholder unleashes another torrent of necrotic energy. I dodge another one of its disintegrating beams before summoning up a spike of ice, which I send hurtling towards its necrosis spewing eye, taking it out of commission*

That's two down!

*The beast roars*

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

*Summons my own beam of necrosis magic after the cancellation effect ends and shoots it at the other eye of the creature*

<Snipped quote by Source>

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

*The flow of my mass becomes much less of an omnidirectional flow as a kind of current forms in it, taking up a steady yet intense flow and smashing into the both of you with far more pressure than even before*

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

*The eye takes the full brunt of the blast, rotting away within seconds, and leaving nothing more than a blackened and shriveled stump of flesh behind*

Three down! Only a few more...

*The Beholder gnashes its teeth before sending a silvery beam of energy hurtling directly at me. Drawing upon my power, I manage to reduce it to nothing but a glancing blow, albeit one that leaves the right of my right leg petrified*

Gah! Damn it!

*Summoning a shield, I deflect its next disintegrative blow*

It turned my leg to stone!
