Let’s Play BG2 EE #148: Clearing the Ilithid Dungeon

We’re made some steady progress in fighting our way through the final dungeon of the area and while it’s been relatively plain sailing so far, we haven’t encountered the elder brain yet. Elder brains are a terrifying powerful threat that possess colossal psionic power. Their might is such that they’re capable of magnify the psionic power of other mind flayers as well as being the sole way that the species propagates. Such is their importance that they’re heavily guarded to the point that no non-ilithid is allowed anywhere near them that possesses their own free, save for when they’re needed as vessels for tadpoles to grow within. It’s safe to say that Terri and the party do not have an invitation for an audience with the elder brain but that’s alright, because we’re not going to chat with it. The only way the party can escape this dungeon is by killing it and Ardulace wants us to get something from it for her vague yet important ritual. You’d think that with all the information I gave you in the previous paragraph that slaying such a thing would be a huge challenge, but you need to keep in mind that my party possesses two Korgans, the ultimate pair of ilithid blenders.
