OOC: Supreme Coolness :D, you Rat Bastard :p

Yeah, and now I gotta forget that Marck just unwittingly blabbed to the opposition. Rrrggg. :mad:

Oh well, that's why it's roleplaying, I guess. Still, the thought that this illithid just waltzed into Marck's head without any sort of hindrance is both intimidating and infuriating. If there's one thing I hate as a person, it's such situations where someone has no control at all over what happens.

But that's tempered by the fact that Marck is so arrogant he refuses to admit that such a thing is possible, and the OOC knowledge that if he challenges that illithid, he'll most likely get his ass kicked.

:) Heheh, bugbear PC.

Yeah, way cool.

I hope this is more balanced than the last bugbear PC I saw run... the player sweet-talked/browbeat his wife/newbie-DM into letting him have four or five HD in a second-level campaign.

Remind me sometime to post something about the Quixotic "paladin" I ran in that same game....

Three Mind Flayers is a tough combination. With 3 Psionic Blasts, two of the Mind Blasts penetrated Marckarius's SR. Marckarius made one saving throw and failed the other, which meant he was stunned for 6 rounds.

He was then subjected to a variety of psionic powers, including Detect Thoughts, Domination to force him to talk about certain subjects, followed by a variant of Mindwipe to eliminate a recent memory, and Tailor Memory to substitute the new memory.

If it only had been one Mind Flayer, it would have had to have been a very high level Mind Flayer to be able to get past Marckarius's SR and Will saves.

I'm guessing that would not be a very good idea. By now those Illithids know everything about what has happened in Menzoberranzan and, more importantly, about the silence of Lolth. If they were to spread that knowledge things could get really ugly for our little group. For now it would be best to not provoke them.

At least that's what Ki'Willis would say if you told her about it, among other things...

But isn't that also a good reason to get rid of them as quickly as possible? ;)

With the ECL of 12, pretty much like everyone else, I think it's pretty well balanced... I could have been worse by making an armored tank fighter in full plate and natural armor. I still think if given the choice bugbears make awesome barbarians, rangers and rogues, and at least I took the archer combat path instead of the two weapons fighting to go along with rage from the barbarian. :D
 

Quertus and the Illithids

The Illithids that Quertus has seen in Mantol-Derith wear a similar style of clothing to the Illithid in the visions. They have similar but different symbools on their clothing.

A knowledge nobility and royalty check for Quertus is (drumroll): 32 (12 + die roll of 20). You think the red star contained within the purple circle, the symbol of the Illithid in your dreams, might be the insignia of Syrzan, the Alhoon that led the revolt against Menzoberanzan and was later destroyed by the drow wizard Phaerun, one of the masters of Sorcere.

You don't know whether the Illithids in Mantol-Derith are associated with Syrzan. You doubt that living Illithids would work with an Alhoon. Most Illithids despise the undead, particularly undead Illithids.

I would tend to agree, but Narcelia on the other hand would most definitely wish to proceed with caution. :)
