=== Personal quest ===

Lae'zel's personal quest is [[The Githyanki Warrior]], spanning all acts of the game. In it, she will explore the strong feelings of duty for her people and her zealous devotion to her queen, and begin questioning where her loyalties should truly lie.

===Recruitment===

Lae'zel can be recruited as a temporary companion during the [[Prologue]] on the [[Nautiloid]] by agreeing to fight with her when encountered. She can then become a permanent companion during [[Act One]].

* Lae'zel is first encountered on the nautiloid during the prologue. While escaping from the ship, she joins the party as a temporary companion. She leaves the party after successfully escaping.

* Lae'zel is encountered again a second time in the [[Wilderness]] near the [[Roadside Cliffs]] at {{Coords|242|370}}. She has been captured in a wooden cage by two [[Tiefling|tieflings]], [[Damays]] and [[Nymessa]]. If the player is able to free her, she can be invited to join the party.

* If she dies aboard the Nautiloid, her body will be found at the beach starting area. She can be brought back to life and recruited.

Lae'zel dislikes acts of mercy and compassion, showing submission, respect or diplomacy when force is also an option. She doesn't agree with helping others for the sake of benevolence, despises showing weakness and will vehemently disapprove of any form of neutral or positive interaction with Illithid of any sort.

Lae'zel can be romanced by characters of any gender. At first only about sex, the relationship will eventually turn more serious as Lae'zel starts seeing them first as an equal, then as a partner.

== Description ==

Lae'zel has yellowish-green skin, with black accents under her ochre eyes and on her cheeks. Her scars, most prominent of all one that runs from her nose to her chin, give her the mean look of a seasoned warrior. Black mottles adorn her face on her cheeks, becoming proper bumps near her eyebrows. Like all githyanki, she has a small nose and her ears are long and pointed, with ridges protruding on the outer edges. Her hair, kept shoulder-length, is brown and straight, with a few adorned braids running along the side of her head. Though shorter than the rest of the companions, and with a wiry, though muscled frame, she stands proud and intimidating.

Lae'zel is depicted as xenophobic, arrogant, and quick to anger. Proud of her race, she frequently makes comments to the party detailing githyanki customs and the nature of her people, often as a means to illustrate githyanki superiority. She can be rough in her expressions and often cares little for the feelings of others. In her mission to remove her mind flayer parasite, she does not hesitate to intimidate or harm those who would step in her way. She is fiercely loyal to her queen Vlaakith, desperately seeking to prove her worth to the Lich Queen. Over time with the party, she becomes more accepting of her companions, though never losing her biting edge. Despite her often brutish behaviour, she is keenly observant with people and frequently understands the feelings of party members. Lae'zel isn't above pragmatism either, willing to go along with a plan she disagrees with or work together with someone she dislikes, as long as the party stand to benefit.

When romanced, Lae'zel will slowly begin to soften to her partner, and start enjoying the small things together with them, even seeing worth in Faerûn as a place to live in.
