In the Forgotten Realms setting and in the broader Dungeons & Dragons mythos, few creatures are more feared and reviled than Illithids - more commonly known as Mind Flayers. These tyrannical beings propagate by converting captives of other species; but what's left behind after a person becomes an Illithid? In this episode, Bruce and Caleb examine the events of Baldur's Gate 3 and weigh examples from other media to explore the question of Illithid identity. Expect heavy spoilers for the third act of Baldur's Gate 3.
