The player can first meet Omeluum after talking to the Hobgoblin trader Blurg at the Myconid Colony. Blurg is a fellow scholar of the [[Society of Brilliance]], who will bring Omeluum to help the player.

The player has several opportunities to attack Omeluum during dialogue, and some [[Companions]] might actually suggest it. Still, if the player listens to Omeluum they will learn that it is a rogue member of its society who was born with special powers that allow it to resist the control of the [[Elder Brain]] of its colony. Omeluum feeds on the brains of creatures of the Underdark 'that oppose the Society's goals', and wishes to help others of his kind by discovering a brain-free diet.


Should the player accept the [[Help Omeluum investigate the parasite]] quest, Omeluum will ask the party to find some rare mushrooms to prepare its special decoct. The recipe includes [[Tongue of Madness]] and [[Timmask Spores]], which both supposedly can be found in the Underdark. However, [[Blurg]] will interject and suggest that the player might very conveniently look them up in the [[Arcane Tower]] of a local cleric, [[Lenore De Hurst]].

If the player listens to Omeluum they will learn that it is a rogue member of its society who was born with special powers that allow it to resist the control of the [[Elder Brain]] of its colony. Omeluum feeds on the brains of cruel and sadistic creatures of the Underdark, and wishes to help the Illithid society by discovering a brain-free diet.


Once the player brings Omeluum the required ingredients, it will attempt to remove the tadpole. Omeluum will not only fail, but also make the tadpole more powerful (granting whomever drank the potion [[Survival Instinct]]). The Mindflayer will be surprised and worried about the power of the tadpole, and will apologize for not being of service.

Unable to bring the tadpole issue to a close, Omeluum will then offer the player the [[Ring of Mind-Shielding]], which can limit the powers of the larva. The player can either buy this ring or convince Omeluum to give it to them in several variants: by {{Ability check|Persuasion|15}} (a githyanki Tav will have an unique dialogue line for this option), {{Ability check|Intimidation|20}}, or proposing to describe the inner structure of a [[Nautiloid]]. The latter demands either an {{Ability check|Intelligence|10}} which has an [[Advantage]] if the player has read a relevant [[Rune Slate]] while being on the ship in the [[Prologue]], or a {{Ability check|Performance|10}}.

The player can either buy this ring or convince Omeluum to give it to them by PERSUADING (DC 15), INTIMIDATING (DC 20), or proposing to describe the inner structure of a Nautiloid.

After passing the ring to the player (by any available way), the quest [[Help Omeluum investigate the parasite]] will be complete, and Omeluum  becomes open for trading with the party. He has several unique items in stock (see below).

=== Act Three ===
=== Act Three ===
If [[Steal a Githyanki Egg]] was resolved without [[Lady Esther]] receiving the [[Githyanki Egg|githyanki egg]], then in Chapter Three the party will meet Omeluum's companion [[Blurg]] at the [[Society of Brilliance Lodge]]. Blurg informs that they both returned to Baldur's Gate to report to the Society of Brilliance their findings about the player's condition. However, shortly afterwards Omeluum decided to investigate the situation on its own… and disappeared. Blurg tells that his friend believed the problem to be connected to the [[Cult of the Absolute]]. He seems not to be overly concerned with Omeluum's whereabouts, but shall agree if the player proposes to track the illithid down.
If [[Steal a Githyanki Egg]] was resolved without [[Lady Esther]] receiving the [[Githyanki Egg|githyanki egg]], then in Chapter Three Blurg informs us at the [[Society of Brilliance Lodge]] that Omeluum travelled with him to report their findings to the Society of Brilliance, but it has now gone missing. He asks you to track Omeluum down. This starts the [[Retrieve Omeluum]] quest.
 
This starts the [[Retrieve Omeluum]] quest.
 
There are no clear hints as to where to start searching, apart from Blurg's vague assumptions. However, if the party decides to help [[Zanner Toobin]] and/or servants of [[Umberlee]] (quests [[Save the Gondians]] and [[Avenge the Drowned]] respectively), Omeluum will connect to the player's mind telepathically upon docking at the [[Iron Throne]]. It will altruistically prompt the player to save [[Duke Ravengard]], who is also held in the underwater prison, and bide the party not to be concerned with its own fate. Nonetheless, it is possible to save the rogue illithid along with Ravengard and some (or all) [[Gondian]] captives.


Omeluum is held in a separate cell in the south-west corner of the [[Iron Throne]], restrained to a surgical bed. It will become a temporary companion with the ability to [[Teleport to Submersible]].
You will find Omeluum in the south west corner of the [[Iron Throne]]. It will become a temporary companion with the ability to [[Teleport to Submersible]]. Once rescued, Omeluum returns to the Lodge. It cannot be traded with, although it can be pickpocketed.
Once rescued, Omeluum teleports to the Lodge. Unlike Blurg, it cannot be traded with, although it can be pickpocketed. To finish the [[Retrieve Omeluum]] quest, the player needs to talk to the illithid once more. Omeluum will tell that the Society won't actively help the party in its further battles, but provides the player with several items selected from the Society' vaults, in gratitude for saving its tentacles.
