Trivia

• The darkglare summoned by warlocks was initially described by Chadd Nervig in a forum thread as a "beholder", a reference to the iconic monsters of the same name from Dungeons & Dragons upon which observers are based. Nervig described the "beholder" as a demon very rarely seen prior to Legion, with Durumu the Forgotten being the most notable one, and at the time the beholder minion used a copy of Durumu's model. However, this seemingly contradicted Durumu's origin of being created by mogu flesh-shaping, as detailed in his Adventure Guide entry. The name of the minion was later changed to "Darkglare", and the model was updated to a completely new demonic species with little resemblance to Durumu at all.
  • Despite this, Glazer, a Vault of the Wardens boss who shares Durumu's model, is still referred to as a "beholder" by Kor'vas Bloodthorn.
