SCREW the 'Illithid levels'. You fight an Illithid? You're dealing with a 12th level Psion, with the Illithid's Su, Sp, and Ex abilities, not the OTHER stuff that comes along with it.The vampire rodent has a point. But while he has a point, there's still the problem that monsters with class levels are really hard to deal with, in mid-high levels. A 12th level Psion Illithid isn't exactly a good CR 20 match. Too bad you can't take the ECL calculator, run an Illithid's Su, Sp, and Ex abilities through, then calculate the ECL, add it to a Psion, and get the CR, since CR!=ECL.Ah well.</blockquote>
