And it is about a 5% chance of a Mind Flayer becoming a short "gnomish" version. Even his transformation story doesnt match up. As Moonrise wasnt built till the early 1300s and that individual vanished in the mid to late 1000s, 300 years prior.
I thought that was the idea ...

400y ago he was a human ...
+/- 300y ago as an old human he was infected ...
And few unspecified years later he found an astral prism and entered it, since there is no flow of time, he didnt age ...

What am i missing? laugh
