[QUOTE="Bronz Dragon, post: 590731, member: 2508"] For added effect, have a narsty little ghoulish mind-flayer wandering around the chamber.. A kind of caretaker taking a bite here, a nibble there, but more horrific, he reaches into the minds of the poor afflicted innocents, relishing their terrified memories of the ghouls' attack on their little village. [i] They see their entire family torn up and devoured with hungry abandon, gore splattering and entrails flying as the frenzying undead sate themselves. Then when they are no longer hungry, they hear the whimpering from beneath the baseboards, haul the victim from their hiding place and hurl them down a twisting turning tunnel faster and faster, then sending them plunging into a void.. filled with spikes reaching up like greedy claws for them. Then hours of suffering as they slowly slide down the hideously barbed stalagmites, watching the hoary death-wizard working his way toward them with languorous cruelty, and then... [/i] At this point the Defenders should somehow gain the mind-flayer's attention, and he'll send this gobbet of memory lancing directly into some sensitive individual's brain via a [i]Mind Blast[/i], torturing them psychically during the stunning period. Neat little flavour nugget, and a cool way to insinuate a mind-flayer into your game, everybody LOVES mindflayers! EDIT -- cool idea inserted :D [/QUOTE]
