Description
Mind flayers are found only in subterranean
places, as they detest sunlight. They are greatly evil and consider the
bulk of humanity (and its kin) as cattle to feed upon.
The mind flayer's physical attack is by
striking a victim with its four tentacles. If a tentacle hits an opponents
head, it will automatically do 1D of damage each turn unless the character can
break away (Impossible: Unarmed Martial Arts) or the mind flayer is killed.
Once the mind flayer's victim is killed, the mind flayer draws out the victim's
brain and devours it. The mind flayer's more feared attack is its Mental
Attack.
If an encounter is going against a mind flayer
it will immediately flee, seeking to save itself regardless of its followers or
its treasure.
These monsters speak only their own arcane
language and several other weird tongues — purportedly those of terrible races
of things which dwell in regions of the subterranean world far deeper than
mankind has ever ventured. It is also rumored that these monsters have a
city somewhere deep beneath the earth.
Description: The mind flayer's
skin glistens with slime. Its skin color is a nauseous mauve, its
tentacles being a purplish black. A mind flayer's eyes are dead white, no
pupil being evident. The three long fingers of each hand are reddish, but
the hands are mauve. |
