Within a matter of days, it transforms the body it steals into an adult illithid, and all traces of the creature’s former being are permanently extinguished." so I thought to myself what if your consciousness remained intact... juvenile Illithid invasion 1 you make a DC:24 endurance or wisdom check if you succeed the illithid fails to invade your body juvenile Illithid invasion 2 if you fail the first check then the illithid makes an attack +22 vs. will if it hits you die if not your mind remains intact but your body continues to morph into illithid form juvenile Illithid invasion 3 your mind and the illithids mind occupy the same body you fight to over whelm each other the roll initiative(Illithid +5) the illithid can make an attack +18 vs. will on its turn, likewise you can make an attack wisdom +1/2 level vs. 30. the first to hit kills the other and maintains control of the body
