Ilsensine, also called the Tentacled Lord or the Great Brain was the patron deity of the illithids and believed by some to be their creator. It was also the patron of evil mages and psionicists who dominated the minds of others.
Description:
lsensine possessed infinite tentacles of infinite length that stretched to all planes. It usually manifested itself like a glowing disembodied emerald-color brain that trailed countless ganglion-like tentacles stretching into the dark.
Personality:
Ilsensine was cold and calculating, using magic and its psionic strength in a merciless combination to manipulate events as it saw fit. It used its psionics to gather information as well, pulling it from the minds of all mortals within the
PRIME MATERIAL PLANE and beyond.
Following:
Illithids did not exactly worship Ilsensine, but rather revered its mental capacity. Some elder brains viewed Ilsensine as the culmination of what they aspired to be and often envied it. It also represented unity between the illithids and universal knowledge. Some of its followers sought to attain this sort of union by dominating or even replacing existing deities of knowledge.
