DIY Stranger Things Pumpkin Carving - YouTube After biting her with one of its tentacles, the Mind Flayer's proxy left a piece of itself inside Eleven, severely weakening her telekinesis later that evening; her powers would eventually fade completely, and would not be restored until the events of March 1986. While the entity was called the Shadow Monster throughout Season 2's production, the Duffers decided they had to give it a more formal name. Looking through the Dungeons & Dragons manual, they decided to name the Shadow Monster after the "Mind Flayer", due to their similarities. [9] Trivia [ ] Owen K.C.

After the gate was successfully formed, the Upside Down's psychic link to Hawkins was also re-established, reviving the fragment of the Mind Flayer laying low at Brimborn Steel Works. The cloud of particles began possessing hordes of rats, and had them consume different types of chemicals; many of the rats would then explode into bloody puddles of biomass to create a proxy form, through which Vecna (via the Mind Flayer) could operate in the human world. When problems arose or the mind flayers wished to discover some secret, they formed "inquisitions", a team of mind flayers, not unlike an adventuring party. Each mind flayer used its own talents and abilities to achieve the inquisition's goal. If a situation was too large for just an inquisition to handle, the mind flayer community put together a "cult". A cult was much larger than an inquisition and was spearheaded by two mind flayers who constantly vied for greater power within it. [4] This type of mission, which put mind flayers temporarily out of reach from the elder brain, was regarded as dangerous but highly profitable if successful. [2] Gwendolyn F.M. Kestrel (2003-10-24).

In many apocryphal descriptions and diagrams, mind flayers were portrayed as having beaked mouths, possibly owing to their octopus-like heads. [20] In reality, an illithid's mouth was more like that of a lamprey, with a circular, jawless orifice ringed by several rows of small, rasping teeth. [15] [17] [18] The tentacles hung above and around their mouths [17] [18] and an oily slime constantly dripped out of their maws. [4] Illithids did not possess exterior ears, rather hosting small, fleshy, ridged holes on both sides of their heads, [20] nor did they have nostrils. [17] Their eyes, sheltered by brow ridges, were uniformly pale and devoid of pupils [18] in addition to being bloated and featureless, similar to those of blind cave fish. [4] [20] The Mind Flayer's presence was almost always accompanied by atmospheric disturbances. In the Upside Down, dark storms would rage in the skies above, with startling red lightning shooting across, illuminating the whole dimension in scarlet light. The storm seemed to be linked to Vecna's emotions; the Mind Flayer was seen looming over Hawkins Middle School, seething with Vecna's anger.

Season One

In the Underdark, the sense of grandeur felt by the derro made them favored foodstuff, while drow, deep dwarves, and deep halflings were also highly valued. [57] In particular, duergar brains were considered delicacies. Kuo-toa were also a great treat, although only if eaten raw and untainted by psionic energy, meaning they were eaten immediately upon capture. [2] [57] The best hunting ground was the surface, where even creatures like goblins, hobgoblins, orcs, and ogres tasted better than their subterranean counterparts, and where the most prized humans, halflings, elves, and dwarves resided. [57] Small humanoids such as kobolds or gnomes were more frequently hunted for food than made into thralls, as they gathered in large groups, were easily forced into line by stronger thralls, and were often easier to drive to terror or despair, which made their brains tastier. [2] This season takes place around Halloween and a new mystery has Hopper on the prowl: Pumpkin fields are inexplicably rotting. The investigation leads him down a dark path, as signs that the same strange ooze he encountered from the Upside Down is in the soil.

Some mind flayers viewed the perfect memory of the aboleths as a manifestation of Maanzecorian, which led to several conflicts between them.

Pop Culture Pumpkins: Free Stencils for All Ages [Printables Mind flayer colonies operated as a single hive mind, with control centralized by an elder brain, a singular entity that exerted its telepathic control simultaneously over all mind flayers within a radius of 5 miles (8 kilometers). [1] The elder brain was the heart of the community. Held in a pool of briny fluids, the elder brain consisted of all the brains of the dead mind flayers in the colony. [4] It served as the center of the communication network, relaying information received from one mind flayer to the entire colony, storing all the collective knowledge of the colony, and issuing commands to individual mind flayers. The degree of control and organization exerted by the elder brain over a mind flayer community was so absolute that it was more convenient to think of a mind flayer colony as a single individual: the elder brain. [2] Maanzecorian appeared as a 10‑foot-tall (3‑meter) illithid with purple-green skin and yellowed tusks on the sides of his tentacles. [6] Personality [ ] The multiplication of mind flayer colonies happened when a tadpole, quite rarely, through ceremorphosis, created a more powerful form known as an ulitharid (meaning "noble devourer" in Undercommon), [12] which was biologically bigger, stronger, and more powerful and cunning than regular mind flayers. They possessed six face tentacles instead of the regular four. Most notably, however, they were not controlled by the elder brain. The appearance of an ulitharid caused a burst of growth in both the colony's size and capabilities. Elder brains grudgingly accepted the appearance of a potential rival, because eventually the ulitharid broke off from the colony. When doing so, it took a few mind flayers with it and sought to establish a new colony in a distant location from the original. Eventually, the ulitharid transformed into a new elder brain. [2] [64] Their abundant psionic powers allowed them to levitate at will, as well as to detect the thoughts of nearby creatures and to dominate or charm any kind of creature in their vicinity. Additionally, there were reports of mind flayers capable of controlling others by power of suggestion. [1] [4] They were also capable of teleporting themselves to other planes of existence by plane shifting. [1]

The scene in which the Shadow Monster infects or enters Will bears resemblance to the possession sequence in 1973's The Exorcist. Through a telepathic link, Vecna, via the Mind Flayer, could directly control additional entities and beings:

The mind flayer god of secrets was a veritable treasure trove of lore and knowledge, some of it of multiversal importance and other pieces seemingly innocuous bits of trivia and personal information. [9] The Philosoflayer had a desire for omniscience so great as to be a risk to his own life. [11] Powers [ ] On rare occasions, due to the small size of his clergy, Maanzecorian would attend the conclaves of his priests as an avatar to converse, meditate, and share knowledge, preferring to do the lattermost activity directly rather than with omens. If a situation seemed highly favorable, it was possible he would even appear to negotiate conflicts between mind flayers and other races. [6] Relationships [ ] Bruce R. Cordell (April 1998).

There is a great deal of action from here on out with the creatures pursuing various groups of characters through the tunnels beneath the pumpkin patches, through the lab and so forth. Bob is tragically killed right in front of Joyce. Despite being capable of doing so, a mind flayer that limited itself to such a restricted diet was rare. [32] Mind flayers savored the minds they consumed, [57] and the brains of thinking beings were preferable to those of lesser lifeforms. [6] Experiences and emotions were the part that made the meal truly fulfilling, and the intelligence and imagination of the victim were a key factor in how highly rated a brain was. Various other elements influenced the flavor of a brain: a sense of great self-importance gave brains a pleasing tanginess, [57] those afflicted with demonic madness were more succulent than sane ones, [60] and active, magic-filled, and experienced minds were among the tastiest of all. [34] [57] Following the machine’s deactivation, and the gate’s closure, the psychic link to the Upside Down was cut off once again, causing the flesh monster to collapse and become inanimate. The creature’s corpse fell into the hands of either the American or Russian government, or alternatively, burned up in the ‘mall-fire’ that apparently broke out following the battle’s conclusion. The US military arrived to assess the aftermath and stormed the Soviet base; Dr. Owens reached the room containing the Key, and surveyed the smoldering remains of the shut gate.

Pay Tribute to Eleven with a Stranger Things Pumpkin Stencil

In Volume 1, we discovered Eleven removed Henry's chip and Henry in turn...killed everyone in the lab except for Eleven and Dr. Brenner. Henry offers to take over the world with Eleven and Eleven, horrified, decides to kill Henry with her powers. Unfortunately, she accidentally sent him to the Upside Down and opened the first ever portal. So this entire time Henry's spent time gaining his powers and becoming Vecna, waiting for the chance to take over the world. She teams up with 12-year-olds Mike Wheeler, Dustin Henderson and Lucas Sinclair. The trio is searching for their missing friend, Will Byers, who was taken by the Demogorgon to the Upside Down, though nobody knows this yet. Hopper guided Eleven through the lab to the Gate, so that she may finally close it for good. Drawing on all her strength and pain, Eleven successfully used her powers to seal the rift. Vecna and the Mind Flayer's psychic link to the human world was cut off, causing the Demodogs and the tunnel-organism to die. The particles of the Mind Flayer’s fragment scattered across the floor of Brimborn Steel Works: dormant, but not destroyed. Instead, even when aware of the option of serving in the afterlife, the last desire of most illithids upon death [49] was to be rejoined with its elder brain, thus attaining a form of immortality by having its life experiences merged into the elder brain's consciousness. Elaborate funerary jars, also known as brain canisters, [47] with the individual's biography inscribed in Qualith were commonly used by mind flayer colonies to preserve a dead mind flayer's brain until it was consumed by the elder brain.
