Exploring some fashion with Auzzimaks, the handsome old illithilich. Art by Tealix.

I headcanon that undead illithids tend to maintain themselves better than human liches, as mindflayers are generally more vain. Auz takes extreme pride in his appearance, and takes any opportunity to show off his excellent taste. Man has an unrivaled skincare routine.

He easily has the most extravagant and luxurious wardrobe, only matched by Felix (who he regularly spoils with shopping trips.)

Thoon falling asleep out in the compound courtyard on a delightfully sunny afternoon.

After having the Q-therapy that allows him to be outside during the day without discomfort, he takes full advantage of all the outdoor siesta potential the quad provides. He sneaks out regularly to the big tree for a peaceful snooze.

Some stickers made of my characters Thoon and Auzzimaks drawn by Tealix (Teabiscuits). My partner and I are working on a D&D supplement and sci-fi romance featuring our characters that is a reimagining of the Thoon lore in D&D and we’re very excited to share it with everyone as we produce more.

You can follow it closely on Patreon

Thoon and his beast of a bike, by Tealix.

Auzzimaks hates that Thoon rides this thing, as Thoon is still mortal. Auz thinks it is unnecessary risk taking. Thoon, on the other hand, thinks it projects an image to have a roaring symbol of unadulterated masculinity between his legs, "Look at me on this thing and tell me it isn’t good for the Thoonist brand."

Felix just thinks he looks handsome on his bike, and likes riding on the back with his arms around him.

Auzzimaks, your local old gay illithid priest, in Animal Crossing style. It suits him. What a cutie. Art by Tealix.

He’s a grumpy villager for sure. 💜

Some of Thoon’s acolytes eventually become angels in his choir. Gil’eath is one such case. Art by Tealix.

Gil’eath was encountered some time after Thoon’s final ascension into full godhood, living in an isolated colony deep underground. When Thoon liberated Gil’s colony from its elder brain, Gil decided to join him rather than stay behind and rebuild under the new management (more on that to be revealed later.)

Some more outfit studies for Auzzimaks, by Tealix.

His wardrobe is notoriously large, extravagant, and often stolen. For the 80 years he spent alone in The Underdark he found himself at odds with many an adventurer who wandered through his domain, using his many sleep spells to pilfer anything that caught his eye. This included clothes, food, exotic treasures, and, (of course) romance novels.

Some illithids adopt disguises that allow them to pass among humans unnoticed. Auzzimaks is one such case, and used this projection to get near adventuring parties. He used this method most often to steal items when travelers crossed through his domain, but keen eyes would notice that elves typically do not have fangs or stubble. Nor are they 6’3".

I cannot stress how much I love drawing illithids, Thoon in particular.

Meet Thoon, the culmination of many years of work finally coming to fruition as the main driving NPC of a cyberpunk D&D campaign I'm running.

The unaabe are the indigenous race of Undairimsh, the large moon on which they live. They are a species of mammal-esque frog-like mushroom-folk that populated much of the surface and underground of the planetoid for millennia. Most of the unaabe are now modernized and acculturated to the colonizer way of life, though recent movements to celebrate the old way have seen recent and wide-reaching support.

Here is some of the traditional regalia designed for Felix by Tealix, which were inspired in part by their own regalia. They drew from their own experience as an east coast indigenous person to write Felix’s character and to design the custom species. The clothes above are made from a fibrous substance derived from local flora. They incorporate preserved flowers, leaves, and wooden or clay beads, as well as semi-precious stones and metals as decoration.

Did I mention Thoon was a bard?

A recurring green hag character across our d&d campaigns, a curiosity/magic shop owner named Mora. Mora’s shop can mysteriously pop up anywhere there’s a large enough city, and she always manages to have rare components and unique/interesting items in stock.

She also, importantly, has a mail-order catalog. In traditional campaigns you can pick up paper catalogs at her shop. The Old Crone’s Catalog can be filled out and burned in a fire pit with the appropriate amount of money (which magically disappears) and your items will be delivered by Raven within a few days.

In modern times, you can just download her holophone app.
