Illithid Union

The Illithid Union are, while not quite as unreasonable as planet-bound Illithid, still not likely to see you as anything but food or a slave. They do, however, respect diplomatic alliances, and generally obey the common Wildspace law. That does not mean you should trust a Union ship met alone in Wildspace, merely that they MIGHT not attack first if you are flying a flag they have a treaty with. The Illithid Union is a civilization of illithids, also known as mind flayers, who have taken to the stars in search of new sources of food and power. These creatures are fearsome predators, known for their ability to control the minds of other beings and their insatiable hunger for the brains of intelligent creatures.
The Illithid Union is ruled by a council of elder illithids, who are said to be the most powerful and intelligent of their kind. They are ruthless and calculating, using their psychic abilities to bend others to their will and to further the goals of the Union. The illithids of the Union are feared throughout the galaxy for their powerful minds and their insatiable hunger.
Despite their reputation for savagery, the Illithid Union is a highly organized and technologically advanced civilization. They have developed sophisticated spaceships and weapons, and are able to travel freely through the void of space. They are also highly skilled in the use of psionic magic and are able to communicate telepathically over vast distances.
The Illithid Union is not averse to diplomacy and is known to respect the laws and treaties of the common Wildspace. However, they are still a dangerous and unpredictable civilization, and should not be trusted. They are likely to see any non-illithid as nothing more than food or a slave, and will not hesitate to attack if they believe it will benefit them.
