Post mindflayers

This is a Japanese mindflayer

>supposedly a terrifying enemy
>gets wrecked by a k-pop boyband

I'll be honest here. I've been a part of much worse parties than that while killing equally terrifying things

This is the original mindflayer

For example? Because I can't really think of anything as terrifying as k-pop boyband,

Now just what is this game?

This is the coolest mindflayer imo

Apparently mindflayer is inspired by this?

Pretty cool. I like how it's a little less squid while still pretty alien

Mindflayers? I don't think they really exist.

FFXV

The vitruvian illithid

So how does githyanki becomes a D&D producy identity if it's actually stolen from GRRM's book?

They basically just stole the name. The githyanki as presented in D&D are nothing like the ones GRRM wrote about.

I see.

Also of note is even though mindflayer is a D&D product identity, FF still has mindflayers till now without getting sued by WotC.

Technically Charlie Stross invented both Githyanki and Githzerai, but did so as D&D related entities in Dragon magazine so has no rights to them.

Okay so I think that's a matter of the ™ not being properly defended in Japan so when WotC finally got the rights to D&D and ™'d mindflayers and beholders it didn't hold up in japan (and/or Square is too large an entity for WotC to try to fight on this)

Kek, what book is this in?
