Interactions

Kethk is a brutal taskmaster, not above killing his own students if it means hardening the survivors. He will do exactly this to Youth Varrl, unless interrupted by the player, who can step in to save the youth's life or kill the child themselves.

He firmly believes in survival of the fittest, and will espouse his beliefs on child rearing and other tenets of traditional githyanki philosophy when further engaged in conversation.

He and his students will become hostile if the player progresses far enough in Discover the Artefact's Secrets.
