About this deal

The main villain/monster for Stranger Things 3 is the Mind Flayer. Named after the Dungeons & Dragons monster, the Mind Flayer is a monster that possesses a host, and uses its body as a vessel to carry out its evil. Billy is the main vessel in this latest season, and the Mind Flayer, through him, possesses a number of people (most of whom are eventually turned into flesh goo), including Heather Holloway, his fellow lifeguard, Tom Holloway, Heather's father and the editor of The Hawkins Post, and Doris Driscoll, an old lady who tells Nancy about the infected Rats. Oh yeah, that's right—the Mind Flayer possesses and melts down a whole lot of rats. Pieces of the Mind Flayer could only operate when psychically linked to the Upside Down's hive mind (via a gate). However, if the gate closed, the Mind Flayer's particles wouldn't die, unlike the Demogorgons, or the Spider Monster. The particles would instead scatter and turn dormant; if and when a new gate was opened, the particles could immediately reconnect with each other and continue to serve the hive mind's will.

The following morning, Hopper was called to Merrill Wright's farm to investigate a strange rot that had decimated the entirety of the pumpkin patch. While speculating the shadow monster's weakness, Lucas, Mike, Dustin, and Max theorized that if they destroyed the monster, they would also destroy the monster's army. When they realized that the shadow monster controlled everything in a hive mind, they compared it to the Mind Flayer, a monster from Dungeons & Dragons that similarly controls the minds of its victims. The boys' D&D manual also stated that the Mind Flayer's goal was to spread and take over other dimensions, making them speculate that the shadow monster wanted to do the same. The group decided to interrogate Will to find the shadow monster's weakness. Mind flayers had utterly alien thought processes and enigmatic objectives. [14] They saw themselves as masterminds that twisted others into serving their own sinister and far-reaching schemes. [1] [16] While some individuals could show extreme variance in mindset, the majority shared many common beliefs and precepts. [21] Warning! This list contains some spoilers for Stranger Things Season 3 and 4, in case if you haven't seen them yet. Be aware! Don't read further, unless you don't mind being spoiled. As Chief Hopper remarked, the hub appeared to be a "graveyard" of sorts; dead and decomposing bodies of animals were strewn across the floor. The hub also appeared to contain piles of shedded Demogorgon skin.The second season of Stranger Things introduces new characters to the cast. Joyce has a boyfriend, Bob Newby, and there’s a new fiery-haired girl at school—Max—who Lucas falls for instantly. Unfortunately, Max’s older brother Billy Hargrove is a lot bigger and more frightening, and promises to be nothing but trouble.

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] On the ring long abandoned by the mind flayers themselves, residing in one of his temples not entered in ages, was a pale reflection of Maanzecorian's power, barely capable of forming a shadow of an avatar. This was the last trace of Maanzecorian's being in the multiverse, at least for some time. [22] Mind flayer colonies still adhered to Maanzecorian's precepts in late 15 th century DR, [4] but the true fate of the Philosoflayer, whether he still remained or had been truly scourged from reality, [22] was uncertain. [4] Appendix [ ] Further reading [ ] Visual-effects producers Paul and Christina Graff were tasked with designing the creature. Because the first season incorporated several electrical interferences, they knew the second season would involve storms. Once it was decided the monster was “storm-like”, the Graffs began reseraching the look of storms and tornadoes. Steve Messing, a matte painter who was also consulted on the designs of several other Stranger Things elements, created concept art of the creature based on tornadoes, volcanoes, and other natural forces. In addition, they were inspired by volcanic eruptions with lightning storms in South America. [1] 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.

For Season 4's 'Dimension X' scene, concept artist Michael Maher, Jr. pitched that the Mind Flayer particles were "an anti gravity element" that would lift boulders into the air, "effectively falling upwards". However, the idea was scrapped, as it would have taken too long to explain in the context of the story. [8] Name [ ] Arcane magic was especially sought out by renegade illithids looking for ways to shield themselves from the elder brain's influence. [2] Although most mind flayer arcanists were wizards, a few were also born with the gift of sorcery. Because a mind flayer sorcerer was naturally more intelligent than other mind flayers, it was better able to resist psionics. For the most part, an illithid with the gift of sorcery would use defensive spells such as greater invisibility and resist energy, as well as spells to further hinder enemies, such as ray of exhaustion and touch of idiocy. [4] 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 [ ] Aerdrie Faenya | Angharradh | Corellon | Deep Sashelas | Erevan | Fenmarel Mestarine | Hanali Celanil | Labelas Enoreth | Rillifane Rallathil | Sehanine Moonbow | Shevarash | Solonor Thelandira Some illithids dedicated themselves to studying and honing their innate abilities. Known as illithid psions, they were capable of even more remarkable feats of psionic power, including telekinetic abilities akin to mage hand and telekinesis; further mental control abilities such as charm person, command, sanctuary, fear, crown of madness, phantasmal force, and confusion; and even divination abilities such as guidance, true strike, see invisibility, clairvoyance, and scrying.
