Illithidae

❌

Illithidae were a branch of aberrations that originated from the same world as the illithids and bore a distant relation to them, in much the same way that terrestrial animals such as wolves are related to dogs, or apes share some kinship with humans. Known types included the cessirid, embrac, kigrid, and saltor.

Habitats
Illithidae inhabited underground areas where illithid lairs or cities could be found. It’s unknown whether these beasts were simply attracted to the regions where mind ﬂayers lived or were deliberately domesticated by illithids.
