At the 12 Skull Farms, mind flayers meticulously select gifted human infants. From the age of three, they are forced into learning and regularly examined, with batches eliminated if they fail. Those deemed unfit are sent to the mind flayers' dining halls; those who pass continue their forced education, as failing usually means a cruel death. The best among them are well-cared for since these humans are of immense value and are sent to high-ranking mind flayers, or even directly to the main brain's brain golem.
Humans bred here are culled every 18 years as part of a mind flayer feast. The last 5% of humans survive, allowed to have offspring, and are then sent to various feast arenas once they are no longer of use.
The 12 Skulls are advanced farms with a pleasant environment, much like human cities, apart from the rigorous testing and forced learning, with mind flayers providing them with all the food they need.
