[laughs] Jumping straight into the news this week, 'cause that was the opening question, we have an Unearthed Arcana.
So if you want to, just like in Baldur's Gate 3, spoilers, transform into a mind flayer, this, uh, footpath kinda lets you do that by taking the path of ceremorphosis, or ceremorphosis, which is a general feat.

Uh, it gives you higher intelligence, gives you the mind sliver spell, gives you a psionic energy dice, which I have a question about that actually in a moment, so that you start kind of...
You know, it's very inspired obviously by the abilities that you get in Baldur's Gate 3.
