There are many "Wanted" posters depicting Thal'Issa in very different ways. Due to the fact that githyaki are a rarity in faerun, Issa always gets mistaken for more common races. Such as elfs. Especially when she wears the mask to cover the lower half of her face. She does nothing to correct the assumptions though, more than that — she plays into them and uses them for her own benefit (or just for fun).
"Huh? Yea, I'm an elf or whatever. Why my nose is so small? That's actually a health condition and it's very rude of you to point out, how dare you!"
