Royal Beasts are a more powerful breed of the War Beast that appears exclusively in the Leviathan Raid.

Overview

The Royal Beasts are the protectors of the Pleasure Gardens, and will seek out any intruders. Should they spot a Guardian, they will all unleash a psionic howl that will kill all players that have not found the safe room. Six Royal Beasts will prowl the Pleasure Gardens during the normal version of the raid. In the Prestige version, that total is raised to eight with the addition of Gra'ask and Za'ahn.

Known Royal Beasts

• Za'ahn

Trivia

• Most, if not all, of the Royal Beasts appear to be named after an individual in the Cabal military: Val Aru'un, Valus Ta'aurc, and Bracus Tho'ourg all share their names with a Royal Beast. Following this pattern, Gra'ask and Za'ahn may be named after Grask (a Phalanx who became the Taken Grask, the Consumed), and Bracus Zahn. If this is correct, there may be significance to the dropped apostrophes in Grask and Zahn's names.
