Article	Illithid
Portion used	Entire image, one pixel of white space cropped off from top.
Low resolution?	Yes.
Purpose of use	To illustrate the fictional creature Illithid, in the article on said fictional creature, in a way that words alone cannot substitute for.
Replaceable?	No free use replacement exists. Fan art exists, but it is itself legally problematic since the Illithid concept is wholly the creation and property of Wizards of the Coast.
Other information	Dungeons & Dragons is an interactive medium. As such, still images of Dungeons & Dragons monsters, such as the Illithid, do not impede on the ability for Wizards of the Coast to profit from their property/creation. The commercial value of the Illithid lies in the associated stats/spells/flavor text for the monster and with the rulebooks and playing materials that individuals purchase and use for 'campaigns' (interactive play).
