EWM seeks Mindflayer for harmless fun

Chrismills · Post by **Chrismills** » Mon Jan 10, 2005 5:37 am

I'm getting ready to sculpt a lifesized bust of a mindflayer from D&D for my sculpture class. I'm doing research, but good images are coming up short via google and yahoo. If anyone knows of a few they could point me toward I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm reading http://www.dndorks.com right now, and the earlier strips at least have a player as a mindflayer. The pics aren't bad, so try that out?

Actually, Ethan's character is only part mindflayer, if I remember correctly.

Anyway . . . well, what exactly are you looking for in an illithid picture? I tried searching Google myself and found several excellent pictures . . .

those things are nasty... I'm so glad my DM has never pitted us against one

Thank you, Jim for pointing our again that I'm a dumbass. I searched under MindFlayer, but didn't think to look under Illithid.

You win the geek prize this time...

Don't be silly.

I win the geek prize every time.

I'm actually planning on having one of my groups go up against one here soon . . . and he may be an undead flayer, too, which'll make him extra nasty . . . 8)

Only because you haven't gone against me or Ryan.

For once, I'm glad to be a wannabe.

Don't feel bad, we are all rpgers here.

So is RPing how we all got to be super cool nerds, or were we just born that way?

JexKerome · Post by **JexKerome** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 8:08 am

I go with option C.

Lyren · Post by **Lyren** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 8:15 am

Did you roll a dice to decide? 1-9=a, 10-17=b and 18-19=c?

Nyke · Post by **Nyke** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 8:21 am

Where'd 20 go?

Lyren · Post by **Lyren** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 8:28 am

What you don't have a 19 sided dice? ......dammit!!!

Blank. What the fuck does blank mean?

It means we get to come to your house and take your face. And in response you can say: "...!"

I like these dice... We need to put them into mass production!

I've done worse. I've built up my players to believe in the power of psionics, because they are nearly the only ones in the game with them. Now, they're headed toward the pit of the world, where garbage from the five kingdoms is shipped to be disposed of.

There, they will meet up with my world's version of a mind flayer.

Take a mind flayer, cross it with a tinker gnome, and put a hive of them in an entire island of garbage.
