I got a crazy idea and I had to try it with ShadowKeeper... but I have several problems...

First: My tentacle weapon acts just like fist.
2. How can I add Psionic abilities and Intelligence drain?
3. It seems that race must be some of normal races or leave race blank.
4. Do illithids have other special powers? Do they have immunities to some spells? Do they have Magic resistance?

Thanks for any help :)

I dunno about 2nd edition ruleset, but in 3E if they hit with all of their tentacles and stay latched on for a round, the target's brain is removed.

You can do it via Shadow Keeper.

Edit: This is an old topic but I thought that it is interesting and now people can make a character more fit to them.

Actually, in 2e I think their MR is only 90%.

Agreed the do have a high magic resistance but it isn't 100%
I apparently have a high level of empathy, combined with a low level of sympathy... weird
