The mindflayer that infects the pc in the intro certainly looks like the Emperor. No other in the game with that same sized collar as the Emperor.

I can link larger versions of either of these. I used Bing’s Image Creator if you want to mess around with it using the prompt: photorealistic picture depicting a pink felt puppet of Cthulhu on the set of Sesame Street

Same as the original post, just swapped green for pink.

Very cool. What was your prompt for this?

A mindflayer in the 15th century.

How could I not name my Dark Urge bard Dirge?
