An embrac flanked by a kigrid (left) and a saltor (right), source The body of an embrac is similar to that of a large hermit crab upon which a thick, slimy membrane has been laid, and topped with a bundle of tentacles. In their natural habitat, embracs are ambush predators, utilizing their invisibility to lie near the entrance of subterranean passageways. An embrac always has a bolthole to escape through if it is ever threatened. Illithidae. Embracs are a member of the order illithidae, a classification of life that hails from the same strange world as mind flayers. Wherever mind flayers settle, other illithidae begin to appear, though it is unknown whether this is deliberate, or a result of stowaways. Universally, illithidae begin as parasites in a living host, which more often than not dies upon maturation.
