Some ideas for illithids:
- Vampires that feed on mindflayers become psychic but also gain a vulnerability to the powers of elder brains.

- A dying flayer can turn its brain back into a tadpole to find a new host.
- A few weapons they use against surface cities include rats that manipulate emotions, emotion-draining pigeons, blues (psi-using goblins) that target religious organizations and sites, and a plague that induces a compulsion to go as far underground as one can.
- Several groups of illithids are working on a psionic version of Reincarnate to boost their food supply.
