Yeah, goblins or orcs would have been a better choice for this comic

Remember, that horrifying monster is destined itself to be eaten by the elder brain. What's worse, being an aboleth that's evil because you were born with memories and a personality that has existed since the dawn ages, or being evil because your entire existence is a tortured joke.

Died so young... he barely ate any brains at all 😭

Dommy mommy took little Timmy's seed away and fed it to her boyfriend

A fine battle tactic - I had not considered disrupting ghaik supply lines before. Like killing two ghaik with one red dragon.

Lae'zel approves.

find Timmy and give him more disease

Him and his pidgeons

Will always side against The Emperor

Seriously. Mindflayers and Aboleths I feel absolutely no pity for at all when my characters inevitably declare Genocide on those things.

I'll go further out of my way to not fight goblins and kobolds than the brain eating fucks.

Or a good way to cause the normally not murder hoboes to genocide their entire race for merely existing. Every wizard I play takes a ton of languages because I end up with more SP per level than rogues, so by the time the DM is throwing Mindflayers at us, I can speak to basically any intelligent creature, in their own language. I'm a walking peace treaty waiting for a place to happen, that just so happens to have DBF spells just in case. Mindflayers and Aboleths are Kill On Sight. I'm not daring to piss off the gith in any way, those guys are cool.

Depending on their level and tactics, yeah.

Maybe Daddy was sick too.

I have taken one out alone in bg3 several times, as a pretty high level character

My level 17 wizard took out multiple mindflayers, solo. I needed the rest of the team up until then, just to be sure I wasn't being overconfident, but I happened to have a scroll of Wish that I copied into my spellbook, and I took Unfailing Missiles, and Mind-rape, (for counter spelling purposes only. I don't play evil characters,) as my level 17 spells.

Unfailing Missiles was designed by me.

Level 9 Wizard Spell

Components: V, S

Casting: duration: instant

Range: Long 400' + 40' per caster level. (1080' @ Lvl 17)

Unfailing Missiles gives the caster 3 "lances" of energy that may be directed at any three targets that are no more than 20° apart. The caster can also direct multiple lances at any single enemy. Each lance does 17 d6+1 points of sonic and force damage split 50/50. There is no saving throw. If you can see it, it gets hit.

I was a bit irritated that Magic Missile was the only spell that was guaranteed to hit. The DM capped the spell at 17 d6+1 with no level scaling because he was already having difficulty designing encounters that the group was having any difficulties with. He did allow the range to scale normally, so with magical glasses I could eventually hit shit at well over a quarter of a mile.

Technically mindflayers don't grow up. They're monsters from the beginning, and if they persist as tadpoles it's worse.
