Lae'zel is the worst character

[Krunkzam]

It is actually painful to have her in my party, it makes zero sense to me why I am beholden to this random person I might on a ship. Why she thinks that I for some reason am her subordinate, and why she is so horrible to literally everyone is obnoxious. If there is some random redemption arc where she acts like this for a reason, it will be pretty lame and an old contrived cliche. This is literally my only complaint about the game.

It makes entire sense....

- Her race is from a different plane, a plane that is by all intents and purposes more powerful and magical than the realm you are from. That makes her feel superior.

- Her race in general has that attitude of being superior. (Look at humans and how many think of them superior simply to other humans... So don't tell me it doesn't make sense).

- She's a warrior, and a no ♥♥♥♥♥ given, and time for ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ personality. It fits...

She's actually a very well structured character..

It doesn't help she could turn into a mind flayer at any moment, so she is a bit pissy you want to screw around with "alternative solutions" and helping other people instead of going straight for her people who she knows can help you.

I'd be a bit ♥♥♥♥♥♥ too in her place to be honest... but she sticks around for the time behind, because you're still the best chance of getting to her people, or a cure.

I mean also her race has females as the superior (not sjw wokeness just the lore, not that I GAF either way just saying before someone slips out of the cracks.)

It just feels like she's an obvious callback to Planescape torment's Githyanki companion- of course, if you had the proper specs, you could unlock his whole dialogue from the getgo, and this is early access.

Planescape: Torment has no Githyanki companion!!!!!!!

Dak'kon is a Githzerai !!!!



There cannot be two skies!



But he might have a good advice for you, in this adventure!!


A divided mind is an unfocused mind. A divided mind fractures walls and weakens stone. Many divided minds may destroy a city.

Cmon.. just kill her.

Hello OP, I hope this site will make it a little bit more clear: https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Githyanki
Short: The Githyanki are very very arrogant to other races and think they are superior. Most other would not even have spoken to you, or even tried to kill you. They are after all an evil race of the astral plane which pillage like pirates in the material plane.

Gale is my worst character.

Gale is the only good one

[IRON FIST SOUND DOLPHIN]

I think she is at worst, bland. I have some reason to think that might change though, without getting into spoilers. It's not much but, it's something.

also, at least in EA, she didn't treat my githyanki cleric of Vlakith any differently. I'd have expected at least a line or two of recognition...

Well they are superior. They was slaves of MF and managed to get free. In fact they nearly extermintaed MF so now they hiding in darkest courners afraid to be noticed by Gith.
Still they arrogant and generally evil. Githzerai same race but different attitude and.. mortal enemies.

Not to mention that she looks awful...

I donno I could tug on those ears, it's the sharp teeth that gives me pause.

Clerics were not really popular among Githyanki, they did not really recognize gods, as they even build cities on dead gods in the astral plane. Since she is a fighter, she is from the highest one. A Clerik would maybe be recognized as spellcaster, being of the mlar-caste (specialized tasks and crafts). So she might have think you are lower caste :P .

[john BASED walker]

Lol I killed her after the ship crash-landed.

[ForbiddenSlurp]

I like all the characters, and I'm interested to play all their stories when they're available.
Maybe I'm just easy to please, but I feel like I've seen far worse characters in RPG games.

Also I don't expect any game to ever satisfy my vanilla BGI&II or planescape itch. Its been 20 ♥♥♥♥♥♥ years even if the same teams did a reunion their personal styles have probably changed since then and a new game even by them wouldnt feel the same. Thats what happens when time passes. You can kinda deal with it or become uber elite online game critic and die mad about it. Ask EVERY edition war ever.

I completely agree. In my opinion, Laz is the best companion in this game.

[Spritefall]

I agree. She is evil and mean. I do not wish to engage with unpleasantness.

I think the issue people have with the characters in this game is it is put together in the TTRPG way of our party rather then the RPG video game way of my party. everyone has there own reasons for being part of the party that have nothing to do with the player. and i do find that i like the characters and the game more because of that.

we are a bunch of people who would not give each other the time of day if it were not for the fact that we need each other. in a way it also simulates that awkward time in the first 2 - 3 sessions of a new campaign.

I do agree that Lae'zel is a bit high on her own supply but it makes me want to see where we go with that character.
