— Naoise Nallinto commenting on the mind flayer she just saw

Overview

Naoise (standard Irish pronunciation “NEE-sha” – /ˈniːʃə/) can be found on the third floor of the building in her room Nymph's Grotto at X: 23 Y: 85. The party can first learn about her when entering Sharess' Caress and talking with  Mamzell Amira; she mentions that they have a "nymph", but she is currently busy with a client.

Involvement

Act Three

Upon entering the room Nymph's Grotto a cutscene begins. The player character and the client  Fist Jara have a moment of tadpole connection. Jara announces that she recognizes the player character, as the Absolute has shown her. This triggers her transformation into a  Mind Flayer and a fight begins.

Afterwards, when talking with Naoise, she expresses admiration of the mind flayer's beauty. Passing a  DC 10 Insight check grants additional dialogue choices^[verify], allowing the party to comment on her arousal towards the mind flayer. This opens up an option to experience rapture.
