Some grimlocks have psionic abilities, seen as gifts from their illithid gods. These rare creatures are called mindspeakers by other grimlocks because they can telepathically communicate with others. The mindspeakers use this to better coordinate raids, and they wield enchanting magic that they use to sow discord among enemy ranks.
Most grimlock mindspeakers wield staves crafted from bone or wood and topped with a simplistic image of a mind flayer, seen as a symbol of their devotion.

gollark: A vaguely convincing argument I heard about the humans-liking-punishment thing is that it effectively works as a species-wide precommitment to punish people for doing bad things, which discourages people from doing those bad things in advance.
gollark: I mean, the only real arguments I can see for it:- humans just like punishing people if they do bad things (for evolutionary psychology reasons?)- a deterrent, but that only works if... people actually believe it as a serious threat
gollark: Also, it's pretty pointless.
gollark: ...
gollark: I also do not believe in the afterlife, but I am still against eternal torture abstractly speaking.
