Do Gnome PCs become tiny little mind flayers? (self.baldurs_gate_3)

Like if you go full tadpole as a Gnome, do you end up as a pint sized Illithid?

I just thought about this, and if so I need to start a new playthrough immediately!

Yes but also no. Ceremorphosis only truly succeeds on certain kinds of species, generally only those of the human sized variety and a few kinds of monster. Gnomes can be technically transformed but only through heavy magic manipulation and there is still a chance of failure. All others just die along with the tadpole
