Kalkara are large mutated illithids that mind flayers use as brutish guards for their conquests in the Underdark. Instead of the tentacles on their face having hooks or suction cups, they have eight nose-like proboscides giving the kalkara an amazing sense of smell perfect for finding intruders quickly and then dispatching them with their brutish strength. As armor, mind flayers often tan the hides of a kalkara's victims and dress the beast in them adding to their horrifying image. |
