She can easily withstand heavy damage and deal heavy damage back to enemies in return. At level 3, Lae'zel gains a [[Fighter]] subclass which allows her to broaden her list of martial abilities or diverge into something different, such as enhancing her combat abilities with spellcasting. | |||

Lae'zel is a Githyanki Warrior, originally from an Asteroid in the [[Astral Plane]], known as "Stardock" (or "[[Crèche]] K'liir" to Githyanki). Before the events of Baldur's Gate 3, Lae'zel was captured at an unknown point in a time and from an unknown location, by [[Mind Flayers]]. Not much is known about her life prior to this, however, as she is a young, low-ranking Githyanki, it can be assumed she was spending most of her time in Crèche K'liir and conducting raids on Toril. After being abducted, she is encountered by the player on the Nautiloid. They join forces in order to commandeer the Nautiloids transponder and escape. | |||

Lae'zel is depicted as xenophobic, arrogant, and quick to anger. She is proud of Githyanki, and frequently makes comments to the party detailing Githyanki customs and the nature of her people.

She also approves of evil-aligned actions from the player, such as betraying [[Astarion]] to a vampire hunter. She is fiercely loyal to [[Vlaakith]], the queen of all Githyanki. | |||
