== | ==Gameplay== | ||
* During [[Act One]], the player may first encounter Voss if they venture close enough to the "Mountain Pass" area to the northwest of [[Waukeen's Rest]]. Voss will first be seen astride Qudenos, landing nearby to give orders to the other Githyanki. | |||
** After this initial cutscene ends, Voss will begin pacing the area around the dead Flaming Fists' and the other Githyanki under his command. At this point, the player has the ''option'' to walk up to Kith'rak Voss and initiate conversation with him, and if present, with Lae'zel ''and'' Voss. | |||
** Several possible outcomes for this scene will trigger a combat encounter where Voss orders the other Githyanki to attack. However, Voss ''himself'' has not yet been observed to take part in an encounter triggered ''by this conversation.'' | |||
** It is plausibly still possible to attack Voss without triggering this conversation,{{Verify}} but he will always leave the scene on his own once the conversation concludes. | |||
* Wiki contributors have not yet observed (or recorded here) if Voss does anything special during his later meetings, and if conversations with him ever end up with him joining in combat after Act One.{{Verify}} | |||
==Interactions== | |||
==Act | ===Act One - Conversation=== | ||
If Kith'rak Voss or his Githyanki underlings are approached by the player, he will interrogate the player about the object of his mission, the [[Mysterious Artefact]], which he believes is a powerful weapon that can be used against the [[Mind Flayer]]s. Regardless of how the interrogation ends, Voss will depart on Qudenos once the dialogue has finished. | |||
[[Lae'zel]], if alive, will have interesting interactions with this sequence of events whether she is in the party or not.<ref>Players have observed that if Lae'zel is freed from the Tieflings' cage but not partied up with, they can later encounter her running up to Kith'rak Voss just after this introductory scene triggers.</ref> Voss will still speak to, and can even be friendly, to non-Githyanki speaking characters, but Players using a custom origin [[Githyanki]] or simply using a Githyanki racial appearance (e.g. via [[Disguise Self]]) will observe interesting dialogue choices, and responses from Voss, during this first conversation with him. | |||
It is possible to allow Lae'zel to approach the Kith'rak alone, which will cause her to leave the party - but this ''may'' be temporary depending on what the player does next. If the player decides to let time pass such as by performing a Long Rest, and specifically does this after Lae'zel has approached Voss, but before the player walks up and speaks to Voss themselves, Lae'zel '''will die''', Voss will be gone, and the other Githyanki under his command will be '''hostile.''' | |||
===Act Two - Campsite Visit=== | |||
{{SpoilerWarning|act=2}} | {{SpoilerWarning|act=2}} | ||
After completing the [[Discover the Artefact's Secrets]] quest, Kith'rak Voss will make a surprise visit when you fast travel or [[Long Rest]] outside of the Creche. He will speak directly to [[Lae'zel]], trying to reason with her about the truth of Vlaakith's tyranny after her own recent betrayal. Further, he will claim to be opposing Vlaakith's reign and how the occupant within the Artefact is the key to her being overthrown. A critical choice must be made: | After completing the [[Discover the Artefact's Secrets]] quest, Kith'rak Voss will make a surprise visit when you fast travel or [[Long Rest]] outside of the Creche.
