Appearance:
A Gaunt, hideous, humanoid creature with mottled purple skin and voluminous vermillion robes, Thorasis is an imposing creature to those who know his species. He looks to the uninitiated like a strange, eerie and stocky creature with an octopus for a head. For those more familiar, however, the aura of power is palpable all around his being.
The bulk of his frame is unusual for his species. In fact, one could say it is almost shocking. It stems from an odd aspect of his Ceremorphosis, the process by which he achieved maturity. He is a surviving experiment by which an Ogre's body was used, rather than a human or elf. Massive in girth, he is much more physically capable than the average Illithid.
Personality:
Thorasis is a Sadist. To explain him in any other fashion would be insufficient. He delights in pain. The 'lower races' are his food, his property and his toys. He loves to break them repeatedly and in violent fashion on occasion. Above all, however, he delights in fear and mental torture. It is his personal delight to devour the brains of those whose cranial cavities are saturated with the endorphins attending a fear reaction bordering on psychosis. He knows no greater rush.
History:
Nothing is known of Thorasis' history. It is a secretive, hidden text that even most of his own species have either forgotten or been made to forget. Whether he is exceptionally powerful or exceptionally forgettable remains to be seen.
If you wish to know? I suggest that you speak with Thorasis and hope he doesn't eat you first, rather than tell you what you seek. There is no other true way to learn these secrets.
He has captured the heart of
Teiya_Luneferra and is using it both to reform her, should she die, but also to keep her under his thumb as his pupil in the dark arts... and personal toy. Each reformation requires the consumption of a Star Ruby of sufficient quantity. How many he has, and where the heart is stored (trapped between heartbeats in a mystic jar), remains his own tightly controlled secret.
Preferences:
Only one key preference needs to be noted. Thorasis is an Illithid. As such, he is capable of only two kinds of devouring:
1) He eats your brain. Yes, he uses his saw like teeth, hidden within those tentacles, cuts open your cranial cavity and devours your brain whole. He has no interest in the rest of your body (though a scavenger might)
2) He devours your soul psychically. This he does less frequently, and only on request. It actually bores him sometimes, so it's really not his preference.
Otherwise: He is almost 100% predator, prone to taking prey unwillingly. Sex is an option, but do you really want to sleep with this thing?
