Ulitharid!Omeluum AU again! Boy, do i love AUs. Lemme put my favourite NPCs with barely a few spoken lines in a different world and give them full fledged lives.
Plus a little accompanying story under cut:
…First, they shoved them into the cleaning chamber – a tiny, dark room, with cold water constantly spraying from the ceiling. Then, the culling – an angry looking mind flayer (though to Blurg they all looked angry) made the prisoners line up and passed along the line, occasionally pointing the long clawed finger, and obedient thralls in the same black coveralls pulled people – usually sickly or old – from the line and dragged them away with surprisingly little resistance – seems like Blurg wasn’t the only one who accepted his fate. When Y was taken, Blurg briefly closed his eyes and did a small prayer in his heart, with words half-forgotten, to no one in particular – neither of his people’s gods cared for him, nor he cared for them.
Those who remained were dressed appropriately to their new illithid masters’ tastes – in an unknown rubbery material that wrapped itself over the body as if alive, obeying the mind flayer jailers’ mental commands, flowing like a quicksilver, sticking to the skin like a slime, wet and disgusting. As if the look of anything that is not gray and moist was offensive to their captors’ eyes.
He expected to be placed with those who can do the heavy work and sent to be enthralled, but instead was separated from the group. Many, many narrow and dark passages later, so many that his head was spinning, he felt a distinct foul and salty smell in the air. More passages – and, flanked by two thralls he did not dare to look at, he entered a vast chamber with a dimly glowing lake of pungent smelling liquid – an illithid brine pool, his memory prompted. A creature so tall it towered over its brethren stood near the edge of it. It turned, as if sensing a presence of a mind not yet broken, and approached them, flowing gracefully, its six tentacles snaking in excitement. Oh, so his brain was deemed worthy to become a snack for an ulitharid master of this colony. What an honor.
An inaudible conversation was clearly happening between the ulitharid and his mind flayer escort. Blurg’s internal debate whether having your skull dissolved would feel just painful or debilitatingly painful was interrupted by a mental command to look up. He obeyed – not that he could do otherwise - and creature’s burning gaze pinned him down. A voice, calm and devoid of emotion, yet almost kind in comparison to others, rustled in his head: “I am informed that a group of scientists is present among the new arrivals in our colony today. Fascinating to meet fellow researchers in a place such as this. My name is Omeluum. Let us share in each other’s knowledge”.
Without waiting for an answer, it turned and left through one of the many passages. A painful jab from another thrall pulled Blurg from his stupor and he hurried after.

squid au squid au squid au
the illithid!tav model in-game is so. skinny. and small. but ulitharid tadpoles are literally indistinguishable from normal tadpoles so not even canon lore is stopping me from turning saar into a horrific eldritch nightmare even by mindflayer standards :D

It throughout the timeline of this verse does change its name, deciding Om.eluum no longer fits it and instead changing it to Aphrungolt- meaning loosely "The Barbed Tendril", "The Thorned Tongue", "The Spiked Limb"- any of those or various alts of those fit.
Using a hc I talked about that Absolute born illithids are hybrids between ulitharid and normal illithids, and the ulitharid genes can be triggered under certain conditions, Aphruns condition was eating the brain of a ulitharid that caused its ire. This caused unexpected metamorphosis, and the colony as desperate as it was and just by the nature of having no other head latched consciousness to the newly changed Ome.
It tried to resist but due to coercing and overstimulation its brain eventually shut down, making it more malleable and giving in
It became hateful and resentful, proving to be a cruel leader to the colony.
Initially it is Lawful Evil with an interest in twisting illithid agendas- one major way is its Grand Design being a "peace by force" plan. Though it can later become Chaotic Evil, it's interests purely on its own desires and actions born out of resentment becoming those eliciting sadistic pleasure.
Even after resentment becomes enjoyment most of its victims are other illithids. It also only eats illithid brains
Experimentation and self experimentation are not uncommon, and one resulted in its partial elder brain-ification where it keeps most of its ulitharid body but still has mental and physical properties of an elder brain
It is unstable and by all accounts mad
Also sketch I never finished of it

Unfun fact: I've stated my hc that the reason the absolute / bg3 illithids are so weird is cause they actually a cross breed between normal illithids and ulitharids.
Additional hc is that one of these illithids for whatever reason eating a ulitharid brain would trigger the ulitharid genes within them, causing late stage metamorphosis into a ulitharid themselves.
Ome would eat illithid brains, they fit within its moral code. All that being said, if the cards were played wrong this metamorphosis could happen to Ome and it would have no idea what or why it happened.
Ulitharids are the ones that can become Elder Brains- there is a good reason why ome would freak the hell out if this unlikely event ever happened to it (unlikely aka I wanna cook up an au oop)

I know I said I'd wait till I finished the drawing but I wanna talk about evil!ome au before my mind hyperfixates elsewhere:

In iteration with @illithilit Blurg they are an awful power couple (I can talk more about them in a different post hehe)
....may be pursuing godhood
