The main story is no longer canon, this has taken its place. The illithid penguins were always the heroes.

Penguins are always OP

[@edschramm6757]

They aren't ilithid, they're just chaotic enough to decide that's their ship now. God have mercy on the flayer that tries to infect them. Or the tadpole

[@ObakeOnna]

The choice to use intelligent penguins as experimental hosts for the altered tadpoles instead jumping straight to abducting random citizens of Baldur's Gate seemed like a brilliant move at first, but it backfired spectacularly.

@@JDAWG2111 it’s technically a summarization since the entire quote is longer than the dude actually wrote. Like yes he shouldn’t have used quotations if he was gonna do that but Dawg you knew what he meant by it. Like jeez it was still in the spirit of the quote. Because the guy who replied with the “quote” didn’t even bring the full context. Kowalski line of the two missing passengers is key to make Skipper’s line; first of all to make sense and secondly funny. Like you people are just here trying to “correct” and you can’t even correct right. For shame both of you.
