new illithid characters, with colors based on cephalopods i found on google images! Tellik is a gnome ceromorph, she’s kind of a mad scientist type and loves to cause chaos. Kimah kind of tries to rein her in, she’s a lot more level-headed and kind of shy but also really curious. they both got sent on an away mission by their elder brain to scope out new territory far away, and got lost, which was the hive’s intent, because they were both “flawed” and they didn’t want them around. Kimah was looked down on for still having tiefling traits from before ceromorphosis, and Tellik was born this weird mix of different illithid types, so everyone was freaked out by her. now the two of them explore the world together, unaware that they’ve basically been banished.
