so....this means that I could make my half-succubus?

I think I need more justification for this one. Half succubus...no problem. Half-illithid....I'm not really seeing how we're going to keep it fed.

nameless npc sacrifice?

nameless npc sacrifice?

Because the wards and staff are totally gonna allow that.

better than eating PC brains

noone said it had to be human brains....
try pig/cow/monkey...

Oh, I see how it is! It's alright if it's not a "human" brain, but say the brain came from, oh, I don't know...a fox, maybe, it's perfectly fine. RACIST! DX

...All this energy, and I don't know why I have it. o3o

the brain only has to be from a sentient being, besides what if I see you eating calimari? hmmmm?!

while the brains of nonthinking animals (eg animal intelegence) will extend the time needed to be fed for a time they will need to eat someone who thinks at least once a month, more often if the ones he eats are stupid, and they usually eat more on principle.

also true

Yeah, I just can't see having a PC who needs to eat sentient beings to survive. That just doesn't work. Or it ends up like the shark in Finding Nemo....which is hilarious for five minutes and then gets old. :)

bottled brains, just as good as the real thing with half the calories, lol, might work though

I have had two PC illithids, one was in the underdark and well underdark, the other was hiding it and went the maximum quantity of time between meals (little over a month) and ate from the evil people that the group fought, it helped that it was a monster PC campaign

so Illithid only need to eat once a month, cool

but they almost always will eat much more often,

and that's once a month a sentient creature, plus several animals

so it can kinda work in a school?

... ah... in this school... with as often as someone 'evil' attacks it... maybe... probably not, and even then no one will be happy about it

well, I could be a Chaotic Good outcast and turned my back on most of the ways.

sure you can do that but you can't turn your back on your biology, you still need to eat, and people hate illithids, even more than they hate drow, drow may be seen as evil until proven otherwise, but illithids are monsters, they are a powerful empire one that has conquered several planes of existence...

but mine's different.

yes but you still need to eat, and people will see you that way, and biologically you have an urge to conquer comparable to a dragon's urge to have a hoard

I want a hoard... but that's cuz im greedy...

there's ways around the conquering thing via sim.

but he will know that to be fake, though it may lessen if he has people watch and have him be visibly superior, but more impottantly where do you get the food

ummmmmmmmm, maybe from the local npcs that want to eat me?

RING OF SUSTANANCE!!!! hah... I had the answer

no one wants to eat you... wait... I just remembered in my underdark campign the smerf nibbling did use the blood from the troll and her own alchemical stuff to chop off various parts from my (and the other party members') body and grow it back without me noticing and then feed it to us ..(well not me as it wasn't brains)... it was very weird when she died and we found her cook book...
but truly unless treated correctly an illithid is mildly poisonous

wtf where did the smurf pic come from

and there's anouther one! am I the only one seeing this????

oh it stopped....

that was disturbing....

ohhhhh it still is smurfing !!!

so it could work if I found a way?

eh I guess it'll work I consider myself a bit of an expert on illithids, but the illithid would almost have to be a teacher not a student

LISTEN TO ME! RING OF SUSTINANCE

IT WILL WORK!!!! Thanks Tre

yes yes we heard you tries, but that's only one of the problems, there is also the point of the fact that you would be connected to the Elder Brain, that Brain would always be able to find you and send other illithids to kill you. illithids don't take lightly to deserters.

We can kill them... and you said they were mildly poisonous.... I can make poison from their dead bodies

Illithids invading? Wooo something for Caedes to do.

mildly as in upset stomach kinda mild, as in at most you'll puke a bit and then be fine, and it won't taste right unless you really know what you are doing

and besides, illithid that attack the school will last six seconds, give or take.

any poison kills if used right...

no illithids are strong and smart very much so, they will attack in force, with slaves in tow, giant brain gollems war machines and braineater dragons, that and each and every one of them are powerful psionicist, without even training it, every one of the standard ilithids have equilivant of 8 lvls of psion, with the master mind flayers having 11, and the royal illithids having 15, that's on top of being really good at using poisons and arcane magic, and each and every one of them have magic resistance out the wazu, paralysis inducing tentacles that on a crit one hit KO, and if they get all four on you (which is easy after the first one because, paralysis) you insta die, they are at least as good at making weapons as dwarves (if an ilithid makes a weapone it get's the illithidwrought enchantment for one) and they cheat what about conqured several planes of existence don't you get

My point stands.

and besides, illithid that attack the school will last six seconds, give or take.

That's because it's more fun when they can see certain death coming.;P

Also, yes, it does appear that a ring of sustenance would do the trick. At that point it's no longer a nutritional requirement, but a compulsion to be battled, much like Ginni's desire to snack on souls or a dhampir's hunger for blood.

and dude, we have UBERSPELLCASTERS AND SALIS, we're fine

or a smurf needing to be smurfy

sorry just had to do it....

yeah, that is no longer the issue, though we could work that he is here seeking shelter, but seriously, think about the devistation of an army of devils getting through the wards, ok now imagine that those devils were actually smart, could sense every one of you could get inside your head and make you kill your best friend, and were armed to ther teeth and had golems

Plus... Fighting these masters of psionics and poison would be a challenge... I LOVE IT

Did someone say devil?
