Note, that the mindflayers homeplane has never been revealed! Also their connection to the brain collector hints at their origin.MM2:AvolakiaGrellKopruMoonbeastMooncalfWysteNote that it is possible that the Morkoth, Neogi, and the Windghost also have some sort of connection to the Far Realms. Also, the Rukarazyll may look like an escape from the far realms, but it does in fact originate on the elemental plane of earth.MoF:<None>Fiend Folio:KaortiRukanyrSkybleederThe ocularon and the sporebat are most likely also escapees from the far realms IMHO.ELH:Mu SporeNeh-Thalggu (Brain Collector)Uvuudaum-Additionally, there are the two Psudonatural templates.-Anyways, on to the creature!

When it changes shape to it's natural form, it resembles a vaguely wormlike creature composed of hundreds if not thousands of writhing purple-green tentacles, although only fourteen of those tentacles can be used as weapons at any one time.Combat: Taihatath knows only one emotion, hunger. And it will attack and try to devour anything it percives as food.Constant Insight (Su): Tiahatath makes all it's attacks with a +15 insight bonus, regardless of it's form. It is not affected by the miss chance that applies to attacks against a concealed target.Improved Grab (Ex): If Tiahatath hits an opponent smaller than itself with a tentacle rake or bite attack it attempts to start a grapple as a free action that does not provoke an attack of oppertunity.Poison (Ex): Sting, Fortitude save (DC: 50) negates, Initial damage 1d6 points of strenght, secondary damage 2d6 points of strength.Rotting Constriction (Su): Once Tiahatath has ahold of an opponent with it's tentacle attacks, each successfull grapplecheck it makes during subsequent rounds, permanently drains 2d4 points of constitution from the grappled creature (No save). At the same time, Tiahatath heals 10 points of damage.Spell-like Abilities: At will - Blur, Dimension Door, Shield, and Unhallow; These are as the spells cast by a 20th level sorcerer.Swallow Whole (Ex): Tiahatath can swallow a grappled creature of huge size or smaller by making a successfull grapple check. Once inside the creature is dealt 4d6+str points of crushing damage and 2d6 points of acid damage each round from Tiahatath's gizzard. A swallowed creature can climb out of the gizzard with a successfull grapple check. This returns it to Tiahatath's mouth, where an additional successfull grapple check is needed to get free. A swallowed creature can also can also cut it's way out by using claws or a small or tiny slashing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC: 20). Once a creature exits, muscular action closes the hole and another creature must cut it's own way out.Tiahatath's gizzard can hold two huge, four large, eight medium-sized, sixteen small, or thirty-two tiny or smaller opponents.Swallowed creatures are also affected by the rotting constriction ability of Tiahatath.Alternate Form (Su): Tiahatath can assume it's natural pseudonatural form. This form resembles a mass of writhing tentacles covered with barbs, eyes, and mouthes. But all it's abilities (save it's natural attacks) remain unchanged despite it's alien appearance. Changing shapes is a standard action. This alien form is highly unsettling to other creatures , who recieve a -1 morale penalty on attacks against Tiahatath.Tremorsense (Ex): Tiahatath can automatically sense any creature within 60' that is in contact with the ground.-Comments and critizism is appreciated. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
