+A short, squat, pale, hairless, vaguely-humanoid creature with an enormous head, glowing red eyes, and an enlarged, exposed brain surrounded by hard, bony protrusions. Although generally believed to be a myth, this creature dwells deep underground, ruling over all of the other morlokks.

+-   Native language (Morlokkian) comprised of screeches and clicking noises.
+-   [Truesight](/rules/adventuring.html#truesight): 20'
+
+### Control Morlokks
+
+As a combat action, may gain control all Morlokks of lesser HD within 40'.
+
+-   Must [concentrate](/rules/magic.html#concentration) to maintain control.
+-   Controlled Morlokks function as an extension of the master:
+    -   Master can see through all of their eyes.
+    -   They move how and where the Master tells them.
+-   Morlokks typically submit willingly, must **Save** at -4 to prevent control (if they try to resist).
+-   If battle goes poorly, lower HD morlokks will fight to the death to allow their leaders to retreat.
+
+### Psychic Blast
+
+As a combat action, may force up to 2 targets within 120' to each **Save** at -4 or take 2d6 damage.
+
+-   Typically manifests as bleeding from nose, eyes, and ears.
+-   If this inflicts 11+ points of damage on a single creature in a single combat round, the victim falls [unconscious](/rules/adventuring.html#unconscious) for 1d4 turns.
+
+### Telepathy
+
+May read (and respond to) the thoughts of another living creature within 120'.
+
+-   Must [concentrate](/rules/magic.html#concentration) to maintain connection.
+-   Unwilling target may **Save** at -4 to prevent master from gaining an empathic understanding of their thoughts.
+-   Once connection is established, may initiate bidirectional telepathic communication with target (although it does not have to respond).
+-   May be blocked by lead.
