Mind flayers perform terrible experiments on others, tinkering with their bodies and minds until they reach some result that pleases their alien sensibilities, but they will also experiment on themselves occasionally. The results of such mind flayer self-experimentation are rarely acceptable, either they expire in painful spasms or are hunted by their kin. Rarely, the result is allowed to survive. |
