Krixsis spent his childhood in the Underdark learning the unpleasantries
that his kind are most noted for. By day he traveled in small parties that
stalked common trade routes and small villages. Those that fell victim to
the Illithids were enslaved; some as laborers, fodder, and even some were to
be consumed. Krixsis is particularly fond of the young. Their feeble minds
are so tender... At night he trained his mental faculties. The minds he
imprisoned were tormented and tortured. Most of the test subjects did not
live past their first night in the Underdark. Day after day, month after
month, this routine continued for many years.
It was a cool autumn morning that they noticed his absence. His desire for
knowledge, thirst for power, and hunger for destruction guides Krixsis in
his quest for dominance.
