so is there a point where if you use too many tadpoles you have no choice about accepting the partial morph? I had to reload a few times with The Emperor because only one option let me get out of it.
I've used 10 so far, but I just looted 3 more in one spot and kinda want to get Cull the Weak. plus I haven't googled the outer ring of abilites so I have no idea how good those might be
I had a character where I unlocked every single tadpole power that was available and was able to refuse becoming a half illithid, I did have to pass a speech check ( I think it was wis?) though.
