Thalynsar

Thalynsar was an illithidlich wizard leader of the illithid city of Ch'Chitl for a time.

History
Thalynsar was an ultharid in Ch'Chitl when in c. 1272 DR a raiding party of githyanki assaulted the city and mortally wounded the elder brain. Using desperate measures, Thalynsar transformed himself and several other illithids into liches so they could devour the elder brain and take its place. As the most powerful of the resulting Concord of Elders, Thalynsar attempted to keep the majority of the elder brain's lore within himself, but the great amount of knowledge slowly drove Thalynsar insane. Finally, in 1370, the other Elders were obligated to kill the insane Thalynsar.
