Romance with Lae'zel can begin if If the player character has at least medium (20) [[approval]] with her. At this threshold an exclamation icon [!] may appear above her head. If spoken with, she states she misjudged the player character, that they have proven their courage, and she is aroused by their scent. She then offers a night of sensual pleasure. If the player character begins a romance with another companion (where an evening cut-scene occurs) first, this scenario will not take place and she cannot be romanced unless the prior relationship is ended first. Instead, she will only mention her interest with some regret. Also, if the beginning stages of romance are started with two other companions even before a night scene occurs, Lae'zel ultimately dismisses any advance by the player character, stating she prefers "fresh meat". | Romance with Lae'zel can begin if If the player character has at least medium (20) [[approval]] with her.

Additionally, the night celebration (regardless of side or approval) offers another opportunity to romance Lae'zel. However, if the party sided with the tieflings, the night celebration offers an opportunity to romance ''any'' one companion, Lae'zel being one of them.{{ref|Normally, the player character cannot have the beginning stages of romance with more than two companions. They also cannot have a beginning romance with Shadowheart ''and'' Lae'zel, unless Shadowheart is selected first and the evening cut-scene with her has not yet occurred. However, if the party elected to save the [[Tiefling|tieflings]] from the goblin raid at the [[Emerald Grove]], the night celebration presents a unique opportunity to start romance with up to three companions at once. Specifically, if the player character is not actively romancing any companion, and approval with other companions is high enough, the night celebration dialogue is scripted to allow the player character the opportunity to start a romance with one of any of their companions (but only one), even if previously refused (but not one already ended). This is because, at the night celebration, a check is only made for the prior occurrence of at least one evening romance cut-scene with a(nother) companion. If none has, the player character may start a third beginning romance here. To be clear: the '''first two romances must be started ''before'' long resting and the night celebration begins''', but can be done on the same "day", and even right after each other, and if one wants Shadowheart and Lae'zel to be included in this trio of budding romances, the player character must '''start the romace with Shadowheart first'''. After the first two romances are queued to begin, when the night celebration starts, the player character may approach a third companion and agree to meet with them later in the evening; the remaining queued romance scenes (and their progressions) still proceed with subsequent long rests.}} | Additionally, the night celebration (regardless of side or approval) offers another opportunity to romance Lae'zel.
