Nymessa is a [[Tiefling]] [[Ranger]] who has captured a dangerous [[Githyanki]]: [[Lae'zel]]. She is found in the [[Wilderness]] alongside [[Damays]].

=== Act One ===
== Act One ==
Nymessa and Damays disagree on their next steps for {{CharLink|Lae'zel}}, who is trapped in an elevated cage. Nymessa argues that it is safer to leave "it" in the cage, but Damays argues that Lae'zel should be brought to {{CharLink|Zevlor}} in the [[Emerald Grove]]. If approaching, Lae'zel telepathically demands the party to free her, initiating {{Quest|Free Lae'zel}}.
After escaping the Nautiloid Wreck on the [[Ravaged Beach]] the player may come across Damays and Nymessa. The two have captured Lae'zel and are discussing what to do with her. Damays wants to take Lae'zel back to their camp, while Nymessa wants to leave her behind. Lae'zel will telepathically tell the player to free her. This starts the quest [[Free Lae'zel]].


The player can then convince Damays and Nymessa to aid the party in killing Lae'zel, or set her free by passing an [[Ability Check]]. If the player is either a [[Drow]], [[Half-Elf#Half-Drow|Drow Half-Elf]], or a [[Githyanki]], the tieflings will be scared. The player can then dissuade the Tieflings with an [[Intimidation]] check.  
The party can convince the [[Tiefling|tieflings]] to leave the area or offer to help kill Lae'zel. If Nymessa and Damays are not dispatched through intimidation, the party can ask about nearby healers. They suggest seeking out {{CharLink|Nettie}}, which advances {{Quest|Find a Cure}} and {{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 [[Find a Cure]] and starting the [[Get Help from Healer Nettie]] [[Quest]].
