    Yeah, that's pretty much what I did. I picked up a Cultist Mask to "begin the transformation" and before that I hadn't "matured".

    Have you read the original Dark Elf Trilogy? I think Exile had quite a few illithids if I recall. Probably best part of that book too!

    Yeah, I agree... and don`t agree at the same time lol. I am a confusing person, and sometimes I just give insane ideas to see if something good comes out of it. Nevertheless, what feels right in roleplaying and what doesn`t is a very personal perspective, in my opinion. It was your choice and it is perfectly valid. I still probably would do it if I played your build though! (just cause I like crazy stuffs). But like I said, I did enjoy your build very much. Even not being here long I can tell it`s a rare sight. Good job. I probably couldn`t have done it myself.

    That's the best part about Character Builds, you get to do whatever you want with the base build. I like your take on it though and it would definitely allow the Illithid to become a true master of all races. You'll have to let me know how your playthrough goes ;)

    I haven't played D&D bu have always wanted to. I actually read some stories about groups having to fight illithids in campaigns while I was researching the build. They sound horrendous to happen upon but that makes them so much more fun to play as. You finally get to be the brain extracting mind controller :D

    Started from the DET and worked my way through to the Ghost King... running out of books in the series :o Without a doubt, the DET is the best of them all. And yeah, I remember there was one where they destroy an Illithid hive or whatever you call it... that one kind of creeped me out. There's something unsettling about watching kick-butt-and-take-names characters freaking out whenever an Illithid shows up; it let's you know just how much trouble the Illithids are, and now get a colony full of them... yikes!
