Description:
Mind flayers (also called illithids) are so insidious, diabolical, and powerful that all denizens of the underdark fear them. They bend others to their will and shatter enemies' minds. A mind flayer is a strange creature, standing some 6 feet tall, that is humanoid ony in the most general terms. Its flesh is rubbery and mauve, glistening with chill slime. The creature's head looks rather like a four-tentacled octopus, made all the more horrible by a pair of bloated, white eyes. Its mouth, a revolting thing like a lamprey's maw, constantly drips an oily slime when its not siphoning out the brains of living prey.
