@Sureal – on one hand I can see where a Mind Flayer would be attracted to an Otyugh (good lord, what would the children look like??)…Yet, on the other hand I can see where some of his friends would make fun of the Mind Flayer for dating an Otyugh. Maybe, in this case, “No shit?” isn’t the best response but the only appropriate response….at least before the laughing in his face and talking behind his back starts.
8 years later, I know there’s next to no way this response will be seen by the person I’m responding to, but if you’re curious about ‘the children’ look up ceremorphosis. There’s a lot of examples of what illithid ‘babies’ end up looking like.
I always thought that Illithids would be scarier if they had no mouth except on the end of each tentacle, which would eat their way into the brainpan (or force their way in through the ears, nose, and mouth) before consuming the living brain in place inside the skull, with the victim remaining alive unnaturally until the brain is completely or mostly completely gone.

Mind Flayers are weird. I see them using their face tentacles in so many drunken party gags…
F*** YEAH!!!
Is “No shit?” really the best response to someone announcing they have a date with an otyugh?

Tentacles… is that the kids called wangs back in 2011?
