Do Using Tadpoles Have Any Consequences?

-

I’ve seen discussions on this before, but I want to confirm: if I stick to using regular tadpoles and avoid the astral one, will there be any consequences for using them? I’m concerned about potential negative effects, especially since I know the astral tadpole has a significant impact, like transforming into a half-illithid. Just looking for some clarity here!

Well, it depends on how you define consequences. If you’ve used your tadpoles, you might face some dialogues that require a deception roll based on how much you’ve used your power. Just keep in mind you’ll need to roll to avoid the astral tadpole effects!

Yeah, I’ve mostly avoided using mine, except for the first time. I think that’s why I got the powers I wanted without any additional issues!

No worries! You can safely use regular tadpoles without any consequences. Go ahead and enjoy your power-ups!

Awesome! I’m running a sorcerer and wanted to make sure I wouldn’t mess anything up. I’ve seen how the astral tadpole messes with you, so I’m steering clear of that.

I just can’t resist the half-illithid transformation! It’s a game changer for melee builds, making them super powerful.
