The nyraala golem is the mind-flayer's ideal servant: totally obedient, easily replaced, extremely strong, and covered in tentacles. Unlike the brain golem that is more commonly-associated with the tentacular ones, the nyraala does not require any tissue from an elder brain. In fact, it can be assembled merely from fresh corpses and an alchemically-treated fungal mat. Sapient corpses make the best nyraala golems, but in a pinch, anything with sufficient musculature will do. Due to the semi-fungal nature of the nyraala, it can disguise itself as a thick patch of nondescript fungus coating a sufficiently large area of wall, ceiling, or floor. This same fungal-flesh hybridization also permits it to heal from injuries with unnatural speed. It also stinks horrifically. Worse than the dead flesh which made it. Pray that you never have to smell one yourself. Finally, its grasping tentacles have suckers covered in tiny teeth, which both strengthen its blows and permit it the chance to disarm its enemies. Instinct: To destroy intruders
