Lae'zel/Approval

Overview

Approval

Banter

Romance

Lae'zel prefers direct (if sometimes rude and harsh) approach in interacting with everyone around.

She approves firm-handed leadership and domination, manifests of bravery and self-denial in the name of common good. She is not interested in wasting any time to get rid of the tadpole infection, more so that she knows the one and only correct solution to the problem. Lastly, Lae'zel favors choosing cool-minded practical options over the ones that come from emotions and passions. The only exception to this are the player's decisions that somehow engage the githyanki culture, customs and religion.

Lae'zel disapproves most acts of mercy and compassion. She dislikes expressing feelings openly, showing submission to others, using diplomacy or subterfuge, or loosening the grip when dealing with subordinates - and in her vision, most individuals around herself are the latter, including some of her own race. She also doesn't approve unnecessary spending any resources on issues that distract the party from the direct path to finding a cure. Finally, Lae'zel despises paying respect to any other deity except her own and hates everything connected somehow to mind flayers' culture.

The actions and choices listed on this page will raise or lower Lae'zel's Approval.

For more information about the approval system, see Approval.
