'''Nymessa''' is a [[Tiefling]] NPC in [[Baldur's Gate 3]]. She can be found alongisde [[Damays]] in the [[Wilderness]], having captured [[Lae'zel]]
== Involvement ==
=== Act One ===
Nymessa and {{CharLink|Damays}} captured {{CharLink|Lae'zel}} and are discussing their next steps. Nymessa wants to leave her in the cage but Damays wants to bring Lae'zel back to their camp. When the party arrive in the area, Lae'zel telepathically demands for the player character to free her. This initiates {{Quest|Free Lae'zel}}.


== Chapter One ==
A party member can offer to aid Nymessa and Damays in killing Lae'zel, or persuade them to release her by passing an [[Ability Check]]. If the interacting party member is a [[Drow|drow]], [[Half-Elf#Half-Drow|drow half-elf]], [[Duergar|duergar]], or [[Githyanki|githyanki]], the tieflings will attack out of fear. Their attack can be dissuaded by passing a {{Ability Check|Intimidation|5}}.


After the fall of the [[Nautiloid]], she and her partner Damays captured Lae'zel and are discussing what to do with her. The player can then convince them to aid the party in killing her, or setting her free by passing an [[Ability Check]]. If the player is either a [[Drow]], [[Half-Elf#Half-Drow|Drow Half-Elves]], or a [[Githyanki]], both will attempt to fight. The player can then dissuade the Tieflings with an ability check.  
Before leaving the area, if the tieflings were not dispatched through intimidation, the party can ask if they know of a healer. They will direct the party to seek out {{CharLink|Nettie}}, which updates {{Quest|Find a Cure}} and initiates {{Quest|Get Help from Healer Nettie}}.


Before leaving, the player can ask both of them if they know of a healer. They will send the player to [[Nettie]], updating the [[Remove the Parasite]] and starting the [[Get Help from Healer Nettie]] [[Quest]]s.
