Partial-illithid

Becoming Partially-Illithid

Once you leave Act II and move your camp to Wyrm's Crossing, you will be attacked by Githyanki monks upon long rest. After the fight, the Emperor will offer you the Astral-Touched Tadpole. If you open your mind to (or eat) it, you will undergo a partial transformation. Your appearance will change, but non-party NPCs will not make any comment about it. After doing this, you may offer companions the Astral-Touched Tadpole as well; but they will require a persuasion check.
