Neither. Play a Human Bard.

make sure he has an evil twin

Every character should have an evil twin. They need someone to blame for their deeds.

Seriously. I'm not familiar with the half-illithid. I couldn't give advice on it. I do like Half-dragons. What is the rest of the group made of? What setting is the DM using?

Half Illithid? how the heck would that happen? I mean... wouldn't the squiddy eat yer brain first? or would it be like a Black widow.... mate then grab a snack....

What would the offspring look like? That would depend on the other half I suppose...

Dwarf - short, hairy tentacles
Elf - tasteful mauve skin... eats brains with a knife and fork.
Halfling - tends to trip over own tentacles.
Orc - Really ugly. Eats own brain. Dies.

What kind of adventures does your DM use? Having tentacles may cause alarm within many communities... as would scales and sharp teeth.

1/2 Dragons seem over used. 1/2 Illiad.

Course there are other options. Savage Species has so many fun templates to consider assuming your world is tolerate to claws, jaws and looks that awe.
